re: Did I miss something? Did we lose Canada?

You can’t take Orgeron’s comments about Canada maybe leaving for another job in isolation. The reports about him and Canada not getting along add context to his quotes. The reports that Alleva had to sit the two down after the Troy loss makes it more than rantards over reacting to what otherwise might have been innocuous comments.

The dynamic at work now seems to be Orgeron hoping Canada leaves on his own. That seems unlikley due to the fact the jobs Canada is applying for pay less than he makes at LSU.

If the friction between Canada and Orgeron is too bad, it creates dysfunction. How bad is ir? We don’t know, but it doesn’t sound good. Is is so bad LSU would make up the salary difference if Canada leaves? We don’t have inside info to know.

We do know Orgeron and Detillier are close and Detilier likely has more insight than the average ranter on how bad the relationship is. If Detillier is predicting Canada won’t even coach bowl game, it sounds more and more like a Orgeron wants Canada out.

This is a message board and there is plenty enough real smoke out there to make Canadas future a subject of fair discussion.

All that said, I think it’s sucks they can’t get along. I thought Canada’s offense evolved nicely over time and think it could be even better a year in.
