Ok.

Fine. He stays, but what happens in regard to his contract?

Roll him over? For how much per year?

How can Alexander be ok with paying a coordinator that has shite results 1+ mill per year while the professors are going hungry at LSU?

Wasteful spending is wasteful spending no matter the amount.


Offer him $800K with incentives to get back to the $1.3 million range.

Offensive changes need to be made =/= Cam Cameron is staying.

quote:

“I would never tell a coach who their assistant coach is,” Alleva said. “I’m not going to tell Les who his coaches are. That’s his responsibility. That’s his job – to pick his coaches.”

That doesn't mean Cameron is coming back. Until Cameron has a new contract, I will continue to believe he's gone either before or after the bowl game.

I mean it's bullshite but this should have been the statement our moron president gave

Cam was at the Lab game decked in LSU gear today. If he were gone they wouldn't have sent him

These people really need to stop talking.

At least let it wait until after Signing Day when the waters would be a little calmer, especially if the class is good.

It doesn't matter who the OC is as long as Miles is the head coach. He's already backtracked from the Ole Miss game where he said the offense needed to change. Give him one win and a reprieve from the govenor and president, and he's already saying the offense doesn't need an overhaul. Expect more of the same. Hope you're happy.

I really want to believe this but with Cam out blazing the recruiting trail, I think Les is doubling down with his homeboy.

Hope I'm wrong

In fairness, they had Mark Richt out recruiting and he didn't suspect a thing until they suggested that he book his return trip on a commercial flight.

That offense is Les'


People keep saying this. Play-calling was not the problem--it was player execution. Watch the film. So many open receivers were missed--making us rely on the run. I think Harris is going to right the ship and have a great year next year. :fingerscrossed:

What was he supposed to say? We had a better coach lined up, but my boss pulled the rug out from under me?

LSU’s passing offense has ranked 111th and 116th under Cameron the past two seasons as the coach broke in sophomore quarterbacks. The offense this year finished ranked 54th and was 80th last season.

LSU went four straight games without scoring at least 20 points, a first since 1993.

The Tigers offense has finished inside the top 50 nationally twice in Miles’ 11 seasons, and the passing attack has been 94th or worst in five of the past six seasons.

Alleva can spin this any way he wants but that look on his face at the press conference, while CLM was speaking, told it all; he looked pissed off at what was going on. And if you believe the rest of his tale, you really are naïve. Those leaks to Rabalais & Guilbeau came from the athletic dept itself.

Another bullshite rant myth that our offense stays the same even when we get another oc. Just because you can't tell the diff between the schemes of Jimbo,Crowton, and Cam doesn't mean they don't exist.

What that article tells me is that Alleva is feeling the heat from how much he screwed up the last 3 weeks.

He's been told to calm the waters and do it fast. The mess he's made is affecting recruiting and donor commitments








Do the frick what?





Alleva made the mess?




Have you not been paying attention?



Holy sheep shite.

This should shut up every Miles supporter but it won't.

Yeah let's just give up on the coach with the best win % in lsu history because you don't like how good our passing game is.
You do realize that our last 5 years were better than the Saban years, right.

Two first year starters.

That's because you're using a flawed stat to rank them. Of course our total yards will be down because we don't run a lot of plays. For example, our 2013 offense was 12th in the country in offensive yards per play but we were 105th in plays ran so it made our totals lower. You gauge an offense's success by yards per play because it isn't skewed by the amount of plays ran.
