re: Has Canada proved he can develop a young QB at any of his previous stops?

LSU's coaches have a history of ruining young QBs, and that doesn't seem guaranteed to be changing.

Your history isn't very long. When Jimbo coached here, he did a terrific job of coaching QBs.

That's bullshite. His QB rating has soared since leaving Purdue, and it improved significantly since last year.

2013: 116.1
2014: 102.5
2016: 135.5
2017: 152.3 (+ 17.45)

So in his only year with a freshman, he was mediocre to bad, and just as we saw with Crowton and Cam, they did great with experienced QBs, but couldn't develop a QB of their own.

This is so fricking stupid. Your opinion appears to be based upon one data point: Stave's freshman season. Stave missed the back half of the season due to injury. An in-depth analysis would be based upon a few games . . . in a freshman season. You have no fricking idea if Stave developed based upon your data point.

FTR, however, Stave's best season was when Canada was at Wisconsin . . . when Stave was just a freshman. Stave regressed when Canada left.

He gets credit for taking an 8-4 team to a conference championship for some reason although the offensive statistics don't show a great offense.

What in the flying frick does have to do with developing a QB? Nothing.

But then again, nothing in your post suggests it's an analysis of Canada's ability to develop a QB.

It's just a hit job.
