re: Who saw O being a great hire in November of 2016

When it was seen as the possibility that he might be the hire during the season, I hated it, but I then realized that as long as he got a good OC, it wouldn't matter. Of course when he picked Canada, I hated it, but the same numbnuts that cheered for Canada with the constant O Canada crap, are now his biggest hate men.

I've said for years all he had to do was get a younger spread OC, and he'd be fine and nobody would be mad at him, but he kept doing the wrong thing in that regard until his third full year.

The great thing is that Aranda masked his first two and a half years along with that horrific slate of teams we played in 2017. It gave him time to get a guy in here that could put us on a path to success.

We've always had the offensive talent, just not the QB or OC. We've been saying for years that LSU is a sleeping giant just waiting to be awakened. Hell, I don't expect anybody to do what Burrow is doing right now (going to finish with over 5000 pass yards and 50+ pass TDs if he plays 15 games), but I do expect the passing game to be significantly better than it had been, going forward, and for the defense to settle in. THAT'S when the sleeping giant will fully awaken, this is just a precursor.

No, I don't regret what I said, because I've always said that if he didn't make the right decision this year (his 3rd year) he'd be on the hot seat, and if he did, we'd be an elite team again. Now, if they can figure out this below average DL, then everything will be set for constant playoff runs.
