re: After reading the story by Ross Dellenger - I feel better about Coach O than ever !

quote:

lol he has completely destroyed our cornerback depth and qb is still a complete question mark.

---

No he hasn't. LSU was going to take one corner this year. Instead they moved a 4-star safety back to a position where he was ranked a 5-star which is cornerback. They have also moved a player that wasn't going to see the field at WR to cornerback.

Neither one of them may play a lot of ball if Fulton comes back.

You are spot on.

Honestly, the hiring of Canada and Joseph of last year is one of the biggest reasons I'm taking the wait and see approach this year. I don't trust O's hiring process or his choices. Maybe he will prove me wrong and I hope he does.

Eta: Another thing that bothers me about what O is saying in the article is that he was saying a lot of the same things last year.

He said the defense couldn't stop the offense on multiple occasions. So, I just don't know how much stock I can put into what he's saying before we see it in a game.

quote:

---

It's a neutral move. It's only positive if you think O can actually use a shadow staff effectively, and I honestly don't see how anyone can think O can assimilate and act on that kind of information

---

Do you know him personally? Have a copy of his transcript? Coached for over 30 years yourself?

Or are you just making shite up so you can feel miserable?

I'm going with the miserable thing since you don't know anything about Eaux's intelligence.

You really don't mess around when it comes to making stupid posts. How about the internal fallout that is inevitable between the whole staff and higher ups against the lone head coach? It's bound to happen right???

I think, much like the binder, he's taking what someone else has done and replicating it without understanding it.

---

You are the most entertaining idiot in this thread. I love this shite !!!

quote:

O has not shown one visionary or forward thinking skill. He's a cheerleader and a motivator, not a visionary or a strategist

---

If you had read the article you would realize how stupid you sound. You DO REALIZE he was the one that requested and hired the shadow staff??? How could someone with NO vision or forward thinking know that he wanted a shadow staff???

Keep posting man, this is FUN and very entertaining. I hope you have a lot more !!!!

I agree Freauxzen. The anger being exhibited is disproportionate to the importance of the topic. It's worthy of a clinical diagnosis.

You don't believe there are problematic possibilities if Aranda is given/takes more responsibility than a typical assistant coach? You don't see potential land mines in the blame game, compensation, who other coaches look to for mentoring and advice?

My quote only says it "opens up possibilities" related to Aranda being the one to control the gameplan, or something similar. And that can be a problem, whether you believe it or not.

Well, look at this thread, and that interview. There isn't really any other concrete reason.

---

You should read the article and not JUST look at it. It is explained in detail that when Eaux was with the Saints the coaching staff was getting all the information on the next opponent on Sunday night. He said LSU coaches were still gathering the info on Wednesday the week of the game.

Your "looking" comprehension sucks.

quote:

---

This isn't surprising, because Saban understands the FULL implications of efficiency and play calling and how that impacts tempo.

---

What isn't surprising is you sucking off the coach of another team in the SEC West.

quote:

That’s not true it was happeneing all season until he was forced to stop. You’re referring to the Troy game when he completely took over the game plan and installed his stuff from 2016 and he did do that but he was meddling in the offense from day one as far as situational playcalling and restricting certain things.

---

You are full of shite. Post a link that informed you of the Ms St game meddling.

He never completely took over the game plan and ran his 2016 offense. All he did for ONE HALF of the Troy game was limit the amount of shifts that caused LSU to have 112 yards of penalties against Miss State on top of scoring the awesome amount of 7 whole points. Any head coach would have done it.

This stuff really happened. It is recorded in video and black and white print. You can't make up stupid shite and expect people to believe you when they know better.

Now, making up stupid shite about the future and having idiots believe you is a common occurrence on this board and is acceptable by said idiots.

This is huge for all of the uninformed sky screamers in here. I’m in the middle but I have faith in the group of guys coach has surrounded himself with. Can’t wait to see the how much better we’re prepared and the correlating increases of play because of it.

Downvote away but I’ll not argue with a bunch of college kids or other people about football that know nothing about it except for what they read or think they see without any experience. I do that enough on Game days tailgating

To the O naysayers, everything O does is incompetent. They won't even give him a chance. They all believe out of context that he failed miserably at Ole Miss, even though all the Ole Miss assistants that were there at the time all say he didn't. Thus, in their myopic narrow minds, O can only fail and bring down the LSU football program at the same time. Even though Les Miles already did.

The truth, however, is that O is bringing the program's old and antiquated football operations into the 21st century and making it astronomically far more efficient and better than it ever was before, and that can only be good and generate future returns with an overall improved and a stronger football program.

Nevertheless, the O naysayers see no value in that because what they want to see is LSU fail so O can be gone. That's it. So good news like this doesn't compute to them.

Not this one. I'm giving him a chance to see what's gonna happen this year. He needs to produce though, because he has everything exactly like he said he wanted it.

---

Actually, his record is all the context that is needed. What does his former assistant's opinion have to do with it? Wins and losses are what coaches are judged by.

quote:

---

Aranda is great but wasn't hired by O.

---

So why didn't he jump ship when Texas A&M offered him more money?

Obviously, because he believes in O and the direction that O is leading this program. As O is taking this football program to a new higher level of overall efficiency and access to information that was incomprehensible under the old coaching regime.
