Miles wasn't a technical genius but he has the highest win pct in LSU history so apparently he did a pretty damn good job, Eaux remains to be seen but he's a proven recruiter, retained Aranda and acquired a top 3 OC to helm the offense. These types of HCs essentially perform a CEO role where they delegate authority/strategy to extremely capable executives/coordinators and only have to prevent the proverbial roof from collapsing, which apparently negatigers have a very difficult time comprehending. All Eaux has to do now is prove the negatigers wrong bc of all that occurred at Ole Miss but he did coach both USC and LSU to 6-2 respectively on interim so...

Second of all, this is asinine. CEOs don't just delegate authority.

If Coach Boom can pull this off, what kind of statement would that be about the modern-day Florida football program?

And honestly, that was less of a gamble on paper than O.

No it isn't moron, why you think people like Trump, Mark Cuban, David Geffen, Steve Ballmer, etc had all these executives/tactical geniuses working under them when they were CEOs? That's how business models work with huge companies bc one solitary person can't construct policies for every aspect of their enterprise, they delegate authority to generate such policies/strategies and generally oversee the operation. LSU follows that business model with their coaches: Eaux's the CEO, Aranda and Canada are the technical geniuses to create strategy with obviously more expertise than Eaux in those fields, Eaux oversees and delegates the strategy-creating authority to these individuals. It's quite obvious Eaux's incapable of performing a Tom Landry-function where he formulates both his team's offensive and defensive strategy, so Canada and Aranda will be composing the game plans.

What qualifies him to oversee anything? Why aren't they the ones overseeing him?

Because that's all CEOs have to do, man. Anyone can be a CEO. They just delegate and sit back. It's why they're paid the big money.

BC LSU hired him as the head coach of the team, this isn't hard to comprehend fellas and we got him cheap which enabled us to retain Aranda and acquire Canada. From a logical standpoint, why wouldn't you delegate strategy-creating authority to 2 top 3 coordinators in the profession if the objective is to win the national championship? Stop overcomplicating things, Negatigers.

So he's qualified because they hired him? That's tautological reasoning.

Thank God we did. Can you imagine if a bidding war had erupted with all of the other offers he was going to field?

At least your trolling is providing us with some entertainment today.

I've said this time and time again, but this is the worst part of the whole scenario. Alleva GROSSLY overpaid O. It is insane how much actually.

There was ZERO market for O. We drove up the price on ourselves to keep up with appearances.

O would have shite himself to coach LSU for 2-2.5 million, and Alleva wasted an extra million just because "that's what SEC coaches make", according to the CheeriOs.


You want to hire the guy, fine. But you pay him what he is worth, not how you think the position itself should be valued.

Not sure how the 4th lowest paid SEC HC at a prominent national program like LSU constitutes "GROSSLY overpaid," you may have to explain that considering the other 3 coaches coach the current bottomfeeder schools in the conference and Eaux did coach us to a bowl win over the Heisman winner.

Yeah, that's subjective opinion where you assumed the burden of proof on this, so you're gonna have to offer evidence to prove this was the actual case. Considering his lack of success at his previous full-time HC post and that his contract only exceeds bottomfeeder HC's in the conference, it's a reasonable contract, particularly for a massive athletic program such as LSU. He sure has fulfilled it with his recruiting successes, retaining Aranda, and acquiring Canada for OC.

Could be millions more considering Eaux is the head coach at one of the preeminent programs in the entire nation with tons of financial resources. HELLO Miles was the highest paid HC in America under Alleva and Orgeron didn't have really much other HC offers for leverage in the negotiations so yeah LSU hired Eaux for cheap. Then again you're submitting Negatiger responses without offering evidence to prove points so your contentions are invalid.
