I'm ok if he's not critical in public about it. No reason to hang your players out to dry so the fans feel better.

I'd be willing to bet it's been communicated to the players by him behind closed doors.

He addressed the defensive issues last week after Bama. He knows this is what we’ve got and there’s no use throwing fits about players that can’t be changed.

He better not be happy- and neither should Aranda- in fact Aranda better scrambling to figure out this mess and quick.



How is he going to get more depth mid season?

It's all bullshite. They all say basically the same thing over and over unless someone asks a question that pisses them off. It's just words given because they are obligated to speak to the media

Maybe he's smart enough to wait for the film and analysis before forming an opinion, instead of pissing all over himself based on a first impression.


What. So anyone who had played high school can see the bad scheme and lack of fundamentals on defense.

Certainly you're not suggesting that the head coach of the #1 team in the country could not see that standing on the sidelines? WOW!

He criticized the D in the media.
When asked if he'd ever coached a team that put up over 700 yds. on offensive, he replied, "No and I've never been on one that gave up 600 either."
Could it be that he has come to realize that the D is what its play says it is?
Are they working to make it better?
Yes, but you can't make chicken soup out of chicken s**t.
You can actually, but it doesn't taste good.

U don’t rip them in public, u Chew there add out in film room review and show them tough luv in practice on Monday. That is why, among other reasons Coach O is a great coach that today’s young men love to play for.

Dude, what is your problem. You clearly don’t have the slightest grasp on managing and motivating people, or how to avoid creating a rift in a potential championship team.

Yes, some of the defensive problems are easily identifiable, but the underlying causes and how to learn from them involves looking at the film.

If your goal is to half blindly jump in front of a damn camera and raise hell at the players and/or coaches that MIGHT have been responsible, then you’re an even bigger idiot than I thought. All you accomplish is making an arse out of yourself!

Please go back to what you obviously know a great deal more about than football:

1). Baking; and

2). Tossing Salads.

He’s keeping it in house as he should.
You don’t embarrass a 10-0 team or players.
That would be stupid.

I’ll say Aranda did a GREAT job turning the defense around and earned his paycheck! I think the defense can be good but they haven’t been good for an entire game all year except maybe Georgia southern and MSU.

Hoe do you know that he is not upset.
If he criticized them publicly, you would be questioning him throwing his players under the bus.
O has said repeatedly he handles team problems internally.

A scheme that DOESNT constantly allow the front to be out numbered in the box with no pressure for passes against the tigers

Until aranda runs a defense that is predicated on stopping the run and is balanced in the box with 6(4,2,5) sometimes 7(4-3/odd front with "actual defensive ends)in the box and make teams throw and we can actually get pressure on the quarterback ....his 3, 2 ,6 basketball wanna be pro style defense on grass bullshite will never work....the only actual throwing team that could hurt lsu was bama tbw....we can't even stop the run....hence lsu d fails...

No cause the dude is clueless. All you have to do is listen to him talk, all the frick he knows is Geaux Tigers, the dumb arse. He's just happy he's on this win streak this season so he'll have a job next season.
