re: Detillier says he believes Canada is out

Not sure why everything thinks Canada is the golden goose. We still had no intermediate passing game, no red zone passing game, nothing but deep balls, but we did a lot of shifts and jet sweeps, most of which didn't fool many SEC defenses. I won't complain if he stays because I think Brennan will be a stud regardless, but it isn't the end of the world if he walks.

Our WRs sucked

But that 1.5 million was supposed to make a difference, wasn't it?

I never said it would.

You O-pumpers were hollering how the money would stabilize Canada. Now you want to crawfish out.

I never said it would, who said I'm an O pumper? Some of us arent just a bunch of retards spouting off at the mouth and whining like little bitches thinking we know more than everyone else.

I and others have said repeatedly this Orgeron system is built on a house of cards and collapse.

Any business is built like a house of cards. If you're top employees leave you will definitely feel an impact. How fast you replace with an equal is very important. My concerns with O were squelched with how quickly he replaced Grimes with a quality NFL coach.

Your blind hatred is getting old. You sound like a kid that didn't get his way and is crying about it in the grocery store.

Starting to wonder about Mickey Joseph, honestly.

Was talking to some friends about that, and they feel O isn't going to piss off the nola football community again by firing him already.

I say if that's the case, reassign him and bring in a legit WR coach.

Couldn't the same be said about a portion of the fanbase regarding the HC?

I don't think Canada is the be all end all but I did like what I saw when it worked.

Really? LSU doesn't beat Auburn without those and doesn't even come close to Bama without some of Canada's style.

With who as OC? I mean that is some blind faith shite there brother.

I'd prefer Canada stay and let's see what he can do with Brennan after working with him a year but that will not happen is what it looks like.

Come on down some USC re-tread from 12-15 years ago. Or Ensminger.

Yes, they do. If he was fired and still ended up with a better or equal job, he must be desirable. You people shitting on Canada's resume to defend O are hilarious. Even if Canada does have a track record of being a malcontent (which he doesnt) it would still be Orgeron's massive mistake to hire him.

All that motion is not really to "fool" the other team. People don't try to 'trick' SEC defenses (the occasional trick PLAY...but, not the main plan)

The motions DO:

1) Force the defense to think about their individual assignments and how they might change based upon the shift. Can't get comfortable until final alignment

2) REVEALS to the OL, QB, WRs, etc just what defense the opponent is in (Man, press, Zone - which type of zone etc)

3) Even if not "fooled"..these are college players. Sometimes, the safety (assume he has responsibility for the jet) does not get wide ENOUGH. He wasn't "fooled". He simply did not execute a part of his responsibility that made his job just a tiny bit more complex.

4) More difficult for the defense to change personnel based upon the offense. If OL shifts into unbalanced alignment and ends up with 2 tackles on one side....the defense may not be in personnel to handle the "heavy". Or, if they are "heavy"...Offense can run a more 'spread' style.

5) Makes the defense defend the ENTIRE width of the field. D players chase the ball no matter where it goes. THAT is why defense gets worn out and offense doesn't (on average).

6) Defense has to hesitate just a split second before committing. DE can't just crash down on the RB IF he has outside contain, etc


There are many reasons to run the motion. It is not my favorite offense. But "fooling" the defense is a very minimal part of it and is just a lucky happenstance more than the plan

So O said

"We already know the allowed to do their job part was compromised at one point"

or something to that effect?

---

O said he got involved in the game planning offensivly vs Troy in the first half. Where LSU did not score a point. Ed Orgeron said he got involved in the game planning that week.

The OC is the OC. Following the past rules of this board, when the HC invloves himself in the offensive game plan, that is not allowing the OC to do his job. Therefore we know that Ed O did not allow the OC to do his job that week.


You are welcome for the explanation.

And that worked out so well

Louisiana 2018 class:
Nola area has the 4,5,6, and 8 ranked prospects in the state. None are committed to LSU.

2019 class:
6,7,11, and 13. None are committed to LSU.
