re: Several "retirements" will be announced shortly. Staff meeting today.

Basing this on one season in the NFL, when he went to a team that fired their whole coaching staff because the team sucked, and has missed his best offensive player for 11 games, is a stretch.

I would bet the opinion of NFL people is he did a good job this year. So yes, I think LSU's offense would've been quite a bit better this year if Brady was still around.

But the same argument doesn't apply to Coach E?

We'll have to agree to disagree on this.

I'm not so sure Brady does any better working with true freshmen and the lack of practice time the team had to prepare.

Do you think the opt-out situation would have looked the same if Brady were still around?

They wouldn't be doing it if they thought O would be implicated. O is clean here and they are moving on. If there was a chance O was caught up in it, he would already be gone.

Brady could have made some difference with our offensive players. he is closer to their age than anyone.

E is an old school great guy, but I think Brady would have been able to at least save his half of the team.

Any word on players going pro?

Brady would do better because Brady is a better coach. The guy is in his 30s and is an OC in the NFL and is rumored to be interviewing because his offensive scheme is so effective and efficient.

Please stop making E out to more than he is.. he is a great guy! Nobody here wants to bad mouth him. We want him around, just not running the offense.

Except it wasn't this year. Again, I'm sure he is a good coach and will have a bright future in the NFL.

But it seems like everybody shits on Coach E's abilities and disregard what he was able to do with a freshman laden and depleted roster. At the same time Brady is given an out due to his situation at Carolina.

All things being equal, Brady, although an excellent coach, is probably not the next Sean Payton and Coach E is probably a better coach than he is given credit for.

So I get some of the griping about some of the play calls but overall we had a very good offense. Do I need to post rankings? Was it last years? No absolutely not.

But if we had Brennan all year, chase, Marshall, arik then would have made a huge difference.

I still believe E is not the OC, but let's not try and say he wasn't effective this year, last year. 2016 and 2018 he was ok but struggled against top competition at times.

Personally I hope E becomes the special assistant to coach O. O has sucked since Munoz left at managing game situations, especially time outs, fricking miles level awful. He needs someone standing right next Timo him at all times that understands when to call a timeout and when not to, when to tell the Ayer to get down like boutte should have at the galling where he was hurt. When to tell players to take fall at the one if they break open etc. These fricking gaffes almost cost us Florida and ole miss.

But let's not try and act like E hasn't given us record breaking offenses over the 4 years he has been OC. Pretty much every LSU record on offense has been written with himnas OC, from Missouri in 16 to Saturday against OM.

Facts dude: Joe Burrow year 1 vs Joe Burrow year 2.

Every single piece was the same.. One guy was different. His name was Joe Brady.

Brady’s wide receiver drills were legendary. Everybody on the offense magically became NFL ready.

Just stop. We don’t want to bad mouth to E. A lot of us like him as a guy and coach. Just don’t want him running the offense.

I’m not sure why Nielsen would even leave the Saints. He’s got a damn good thing going to have to go recruit again.

Could be wrong.
