    I didn't take it as fire him now. Just that Grimes sort of sucks. Nothing we can do for a while

    nola.com reporting that LSU only fired Miles. Coach O was given the option of keeping Cam; he chose to let him go.

    He has been a disappointment. So has Corey Reymond (he's why we're not performing like DBU IMO). Regardless there isn't much O can do about moving the deck chairs on the Titanic. Hopefully his management style will allow them to get the best out of what is available. Frankly different leadership can make a real difference in how both the players and coaches perform.

    You got a deal. The OL is simply not as good or experienced as it was last year plus a bunch are playing injured. We lost 2 starting tackles to the pros last year. Fournette ran for almost 2000 yds last year and Guice for 500 behind that line that Grimes coached. With Miles jurasic age offense no way can I fault any one offensive coach while he was there especially the OL coach. I am simply befuddled by your wanting Grimes gone.

    Watch the Bama, Ark and Ole Miss games. Terrible line play vs teams worth a damn

    I was lambasted by several people for calling LSU out on this hire and what has transpired since he has been here.

    LSU dad thought he was the best thing since sliced bread. Red used to sniff his jock.

    This is boring. YYYYAAAAWWWWNNNN 33819239-illustration-featuring-a-boy-letting-out-a-big-yawn-while-stretching.jpg Of course our OL looks bad against those 3 teams who have good to great talent and better head coaches. THEY KNOW OUR JURASIC AGE ONE FUCKING PAGE OFFENSIVE PLAYBOOK. Why the fuck do you think Ole Miss and Ark are only two teams that are competing against Alabama? THIS IS FOOTBALL 101. Better creative offenses etc, etc etc. Nuff said if you can't understand this don't know what you can understand.

    On a positive note, with such low expectations, my TV is safe until next year!

    Yes, the odds of this season being anything other than crap are very low. For goodness sake, we've already had a player arrested. "O has lost control of this team!" Did I get that right?
