Agree, but at worst Canada is an average to slightly above average OC who is creative. That alone would have increased LSU's win totals the last few years by 1-2 games a season IMHO.

Yep. I'm cautiously optimistic at this point. If O really does sit back and let Canada and Aranda do their own thing on game days and we stay away from recruiting violations, things could go well.

However, the question will then become, how long do Canada and Aranda stay before being plucked for HC or NFL opportunities and how well we do replacing them.

LSU will be one of the most improved teams this year in the Nation without a doubt but it may not translate directly to wins. Aranda is great DC, I do want to hold my opinions on Canada until I see LSU offense on the field and in SEC play. O is still an enigma of sorts, mainly because will he truly allow his Coordinators the space to make adjustments and support them when the game is on the line or a lot is at stake. Teams usually respond when coaches are fired they rally behind the new coach but it's hard to keep momentum going once the honeymoon period ends and optimism is replaced with expectations. Time will tell
