Beyond 2020: Who has hope for the future of LSU Football?

Look at Coach O's entire resume.
Last year was an outlier. It was a perfect storm of:
Burrow/Brady/Aranda
All 3 are gone.
Where is the hope for the future of LSU football?

A QB he went and found that no one else wanted, and one of those was a coach he hired...which took serious vision
Has he failed as a program leader this year...YES. Will he ever replicate 2019..I don't know. but we need to quit pretending he had nothing to do with that year. That was a once in a lifetime collection of players and coaches and he is the one who put that puzzle together.

Recruiting. All hope in college football is based in recruiting. Without recruiting well you have little to no room for error for hope. We recruit well so it will never be an issue of talent and when you have talent you have hope.
As I see this is yet another thread to bash O, some of you are short sighted. Many said the same things in the last few years of Les' tenure and the beginning of Os and yet we had last year. So history has shown that with our program hope is always something that should be prominent because no matter the trials and tribulations we've gone through the past 17 years we come around and fulfill that hope at some point, no matter the coach. Our program has won 3 titles in that 17 years with 3 different head coaches(unprecedented). That in itself should entail hope.

We dont have a dude in the golden girl squad yet... but with BLMSU, I expect that to change as well

Just go be a Bama fan.
All of the complaining by those that don't understand how awesome the last 20 years have been is exhausting.
Do you realize that we NEVER thought that we'd see another natty? Then 03,07,11, and 19! And you're complaining about coach O's handling of this year? After his handling of the team last year?
Put some more sugar on your pacifier and put it back in your mouth. LSU will be fine.

Me. Most on this board were sick of Aranda.
Brady was great, but he gets more credit than he deserves.
And Burrow...well, Burrow was the GOAT.

Recruiting is there. But I don’t trust the coaches to change much especially if Spring football doesn’t happen again.

Idk, I think Luck plays a part in almost every championship.
If we had 2013’s offense in 2012 or 2014 we maybe win a championship. We had a lot of players peak at the same time.

that's not exactly true, but yes O gets all the credit for getting Burrow. I've always hated the argument a coach only won because of the QB (Mack Brown and VY, Jimbo and Winston, they recruited those guys )
quote:
and 2 coaches he hired...one of which took serious vision
He did not hire Aranda, Miles did but yes hiring Brady was a great move that did require vision. The problem is his other hires however, particularly the replacement for both Brady and Aranda are older retreads that are not at all innovative and seem more comfortable hires that likely would stay for a while. IE no vision at all.

His entire resume includes a 15-0 National championship greatest team of all time. Just because you are butthurt he is the coach doesn’t make that not true. So if you look at his entire resume you see he he has the capabilities of putting the pieces in place to go 15-0 and win a national championship.
Will they be as good at 2019? No because we may never see a team that good ever from any program.

Who else was pounding down the door t get Joey B after sitting at QB3 for years?

My mistake on that...had a feeling he might have been a miles hire and guessed wrong

Yea, this is my biggest issue with 2020. The hires were a bunt at best, vs swinging for the fences by getting Brady. At the end of the day this is going to be the drawback of the O model of coaching which is get coordinators and let them do what they do best. Problem is if there is no home run hire to be had or your hire is a dud, you end up with a product like this. Yes, coach O has failed in his own model this year, but that doesn't mean he won't succeed again.

I guess i'm kind of arguing semantics but given the timing, end of spring, most teams were settled/didn't have room. But LSU only went after him because we had someone on staff (Bill Busch i think) that knew about him and we were desperate not like some unknown gem they discovered through great scouting necessarily. We know Cincinnati was certainly interested I'm sure others would have been under different timing and FTR he was QB2

Well that's a big problem Of course he can do better in the future but the concerning thing to me is, outside of Brady, his hires have been pretty uninspiring, all retreads that he knows.

And I can make a "perfect storm" on why this season is so bad:
New DC
Wrong players for new scheme
New PGC
Opt outs
COVID killed the spring
Social unrest affecting team
Only 5 returning starters
Starting QB likely gone for season
The likelihood of most of these happening in 2021 is minimal. So if a perfect storm caused 2019, a perfect storm caused 2020 to be a shite show.
