O realized after the first game last year that he made a huge mistake hiring Canada I truly believed. We should have hung 50 on them. I think at that point he was looking for a way to get rid of Canada. After the game my son and I both said we were in deep shite with this offense. I think that's why he interfered and wanted a different offense but it was too late. He knew Canada was gone. I still think Steve E would have hung 50 on BYU and I think we will be pleasantly surprised this year with the offense. Good riddance of Canada.





Ding ding winner! And yes ALL HC interfere but I will say that he won't interfere that much with Steve. He trust him and I truly believe that last year they had a huge riff going on between O, Aranda and Canada and I'm sure a few others!

This year from all accounts the coaching staff really seems to be in sync with each other and that goes a long long way!

All coaches "interfere"

By forcing the new offensive coordinator to run plays from the fired offensive coordinator?

Hope he doesn't have to, but he will and should if needed! Would you geniuses say anything if you were the boss and your workers were underperforming or not getting the results you all wanted?

I'm going to disagree with you. The problem with Canada is he did not get along with other coaches on that staff, especially Aranda!

Huh? What are you talking about? If you are referring that Ensminger only took the job because Coach O forced him then GTFO of here with that crap! Also news flash, Steve won't be running no plays that Canada drew up that is for sure. You may want to go back and reword what you wrote.

This is aggressively dumb.

He is saying that O forced Canada to run E’s offense last year.

Based on Danny Etling telling the media that they were running 2016 plays in the first
half of the Troy game.

I personally don't think he'll really "interfere" with Ensminger


I totally agree. With Canada he interfered in an offensive scheme that while it was not running very well, it was the offense that the team prepared for weeks and months. And most likely something that O did not understand.

With Ensminger, O is more comfortable and is on board with his style of offense. He'll interfere in game decisions most likely, but he wont change the whole offense like he did last year.

I feel Like he trusts E a lot more, and he doesn’t really have anyone there to help him make any changes.

I honestly Think O sorta gave the offense over to E at a few points last year, and he cannot do that this year.

I would say Os trust is maybe the #1 thing E has going for him.

I'm hoping Ed O finds a play that he loves as much as Les did with the toss dive.

Thank you.

And it's a legitimate question. We're not talking about limiting the playbook or developing a gameplan around running certain packages in certain situations.

We're talking about actually calling plays from a different offense than the OC you hired is used to. How often do head coaches interfere that way? Particularly ones who are primarily defensive coaches?

All people in charge will have input as the responsibility flows upwards PERIOD.
Anyone who thinks differently is ignorant of how things work.

Not sure what your definition of interfering is, but all you down voters are lying to yourselves and could never run a successful business. At the very least, a boss would suggest changes if things aren't working. That doesn't mean he knows more about the subject, it just means what you're doing now isn't working. Are y'all saying he should just sit back and watch while his arse is on the line?

Les probably worked a lot with the offense. But he was also an offensive coordinator at one points.

How much do you think he messed with the defense?

Says the poster with 600 posts in, at most, 42 days.

Frankly...no poster should be able to even post a damn thing on this site for 6 months after they sign up. Call it a "waiting period" or "common sense posting rules." We'd all be better served.

If he has to he will, he is the head coach. An example last year was he cut down on the pre snap movements after being penalized heavily early in the season.

People will blame him for the Troy loss, but that isn't why we lost. Game plan was sound; execution lacked heavily.
