Yahoo Sports "LSU coach Ed Orgeron made his name as a defensive line coach. But he’s spent little time running a defense, as his career has been hallmarked as more of a recruiter and motivator than an overall tactician. When you are a head coach without substantial X-and-O acumen that is suddenly confronted with both a gaping talent deficit and an established schematic disadvantage, it could be a long season."

Yeh, it's Yahoo, unfortunately, there's no way to ignore the truth.

Its obvious O did not try and learn anything from Aranda how to scheme a defense.

me and others said this from the start. O did not have the resume nor had he coached one side of the ball. BUT, since miles was nothing special either as a OC at okie lite and running shite his way starting in 2010....we all figured if O just let the DC and OC do their thing UNLIKE miles with his OC's we would be fine..........albeit it MIGHT be tough to sustain with guys leaving OR not panning out.........

jimbo, CUM, malzahn, chizik, muschamp,saban, kiffin, leach, etc all can call 1 side of the ball.

O got us through it after he and canadas irreconcilable differences. but it still was a good hire. he got lucky with brady to bail him out. another good hire. we are running similar offense to last year. NFW O will get away from a proven system that won him a natty. linehan is not as bad as some are portraying and neither is BO.

whilst past performance is not indicative of future results and this is a what have you done for me lately game...let's see what happens.

We don’t have a gaping talent deficiency

This was the main reason I was against hiring him as head coach.

Plenty of coaches without Xs and Os have succeeded in the NFL and NCAA.
