re: Detillier says he believes Canada is out

We know Orgeron tampered with (as you astutely pointed out) the offense of a Broyles award finalist. What qualifies him to do that when he's never coached that side of the ball?

You use such dirty words. I posted this earlier, you must have missed it...

A common misconception around here is that O took the play calling away in 1st half v. Troy. FAKE NEWS! Canada called the plays minus the shifts and with little motion. The play calling was no different. No shows shifts and little motion...there was no "modified" offense from O besides that. BTW, LSU was 0/9 on 3rd down that day. 0/5 in the 2nd half with the "modifications" off and sprinkled in a 4:29 TOP in the 4th.....GAME OVER!

The simplest, most logical explanation is that he disagreed with the way the offense was being run. If the point was to cut down on penalties then why stop at halftime? By going back to Canada's way we were risking more penalties, right?

---

The Troy game featured starting both Freshman OL in Charles and Ingram. The "tampering" that you speak of was stopping the shifts and reducing the motions. The play calling never changed. The penalties had gotten better in Gm. 4 but the first 3 games were an offical's wet dream. The penalties, a regressing offense, injuries on the OL and suspect play calling at times all lead to O "tampering" with the offense by trying to simplify it.
A defense that was learning on the fly without quality depth is not helped by an offense that can't sustain drives and put points up. At that time, we need an offense to eat the clock and put up points to help until the D matured.

My explanation makes sense and yours just raises more questions.

You assholes love to be assholes.

I don't think a lot of people realized the growing pains the defense was going through. Even without the injuries to Lawrence, Alexander and others, there were a lot of inexperienced starters getting their footing. There is a reason Aranda remarked that this season was one of his toughest coaching challenges.

We gave up over 200 yards rushing to Troy and had a hard time getting the ball back to the offense. Miss St was a horrifically bad defensive performance. State had 465 yards total and averaged almost 6 yards per carry.

Both sides of the ball struggled early. We could have weathered one, but not both.

How is that not tampering? I never said O took playcalling away from Canada. I said he modified his offense. Again, what qualifies him to change an offense of a Broyles award finalist when he's never coached that side of the ball?

My God this board is FULL OF IDIOTS...

ED O has been coaching football HIS ENTIRE LIFE at the Pro and collegiate level. He has worked with and under some of the greatest minds in football. He is also the HEAD COACH. So that's all the qualification he needs sir because he is leader and CEO of the program. And you are a complete FN moron if you don't think coach O understands offense. I mean, being a good coach on defense means understanding and trying to BEAT what is coming at you? How many meetings and on the field work has coach O put in discussing offense? Ten's of thousands of hours???

At that point in the season, the offense was struggling. We were starting 3 true freshman on the OL. We were without Guice.

Coach O had EVERY right to ask Canada to simplify the movements and shifts in order to try and help the younger players. It may not have been the right move, but the strategy and thinking was SOUND JUDGMENT.

Coach O saw a problem, and as any good leader should do, tried to find solutions. Unlike his predecessor, who was unwilling to TRY anything different. Further, had the offense struggled all year, you'd be the same JACKO complaining about how inept our HC is because he didn't intervene change the offense "like a good HC would".

My GOD... the IQ of this board ls less than that of a FLOWER! FN MORONS!!!

I am positive it has been mentioned multiple times that Freeze and O hate each other

Why the hate? Coach Eaux gave Freeze his first college coaching job.

Yeah. First I'm hearing of it too.

Word is that freeze snagged some poon right out from under O.

Canada won’t quit and LSU won’t fire him. Unless he gets a HC job he will be back
Canada isn’t throwing $3M away.

This is the rub. Who is going to make it economically advantageous for him to leave? ULL? Not likely? So, is another team going to pay $1.5M plus a buyout for him to be OC? Not likely. Are Alleva and the BOS going to approve a buyout in year one after the offense showed progress? Doubtful.

You're actually denser than I thought. I agree he may not be qualified....but he is the HC....you do understand that like it or not, he can meddle and change stuff if he wants....that doesn't make it right...but its the way it is.

HE is the chief...and MC is an indian. Do you not know how the HC/AC relationship works?

So the whole letting his coaches coach thing was a lie? Got it.

It's pretty obvious from this remark that the closest you have gotten to playing football is the nerf ball you got when you were 4. And probably the closest you got to playing any organized sport past junior high was when you were still floating around in your daddy's balls! Because it's pretty clear you have no idea how anything works in sports.
