So if I recall in dereks binder titled "How to build a Championship program" wasn't Kiffin supposed to be the coordinator? when that failed that showed how flawed Eds CEO model was. What else was in that binder that was a lie? Also is there any other coach at a major program you can think of that's never been a coordinator and basically has no expertise on either side of the ball and basically is just a motivator and recruiter?

The binder has been stolen by Jimbo just like coach Kleins green note book was taken...

He did win a national championship. So it is probably unfair to say it was totally flawed

There is a guy at Clemson who has 2 NC's you might want to talk to

Dabo is making it work and didn’t have coordinator experience. But yeah fully agree I don’t like the idea of having a head coach that always needs two strong coordinators to win.

Only difference between the movie and real life is that Farmer Fran is our head coach.

Ok that’s fair. But they should have included a section on how to MAINTAIN a championship program.

There are a few. Dabo and fleck if I remember correctly. But, they are few and far between and not an optimal situation

If the head coach is an expert on either side of the line of scrimmage, it gives you a backstop to how far you can fall. We have no such backstop

Neither were coordinators, but both called their own plays as head coaches at smaller schools before getting big time jobs. I know Meyer called plays at bowling green

Honestly, it’s not his model that’s the problem. It’s that he can’t do it right to sustain success. And he’s done it so wrong the past two years, we have fallen below average at this point.

There’s other issues too besides coaching hires. He’s getting a LOT wrong.

Dabo but he has Venables so he is an outlier

Championship “Program “. Not Championship “Season”. Coach O’s and Derek’s vision outlined in the binder is not sustainable. LSU is a blue blood program where a coach must be centric to a certain philosophy and schemes. Someone similar to Saban, Jimbo, Kiffin, Kirby. Not making direct comparables just saying a centric philosophy that Ed lacks.

Yes, Ed delivered a championship season but not a championship program and the laundry list of examples of not being able to make critical coordinator hires, to the off-the-field antics. Ed needs two elite coordinators to be successful and one of two elite coordinators he had, he inherited. Coach O really thought the O-Kiffin-Aranda model was gonna make a big splash and it would have. It just didn’t work out that way. And Joe Brady arrived was the only time the two elite coordinator model was in effect that worked and resulted in a natty.

This model in the manner of Coach O owned deliverables is not sustainable to build a championship program. Just a one-hit-wonder if lessons learned are never acknowledged and they haven’t. This is a systemic and cultural issue that can’t be fixed during the season. Nothing will fix those issues this season. Sure LSU can win some games. LSU has talented competitors with a few playmakers ie Boutte which is why I think LSU goes 7-5 vs a 6-6 or worse, 5-7.

O is a lame duck, y’all.

Dabo is an anomaly. It took Clemson getting boat raced by West Virgina in the Orange Bowl for Dabo to acknowledge the issues and he addressed them. The result is multiple nattys
