I don’t understand, we weren’t good, why are our coaches being sought after? 

Sometimes it's connections.

Ed Orgeron wanted to get LSU's offense back to the way it was when Joe Brady was there, so he hired a couple of Brady's proteges.

Brady wasn't even LSU's OC...he was their Passing Game Coordinator right?  Who was the "official" OC?

Just read he was co-offensive coordinator with Steve Ensminger who has been reassigned.  Brady got lucky getting out of Baton Rouge when he did...I don't think he would have had as good a year in 20-21.

He's held other jobs too.

Don't know how he's been with his teammates, but if he's been good I'd be tempted to think of offering the role to Russell Okung.

and while we are at it hire Richard Simmons to keep the offensive line guys healthy and on the field.

How bad is Teddy Bridgewater? The coaching staff that fielded the #21 ranked offense in yardage and #24 ranked offense in points while going 5-11 with him as their starting QB are evidently the hottest coaches on the market. 

From my view--A lot is about the former coaching/position group circles.  There are 5-6 at any given time in the college/pro ranks.

For example: McVay, Arthur Smith, Matt LeFleur, Vandy, & a good chunk of their staffs are all in with Nashville & Chicago circles, even extending beyond the leagues.  Beer industry as well.

Same goes for the late 90s Panthers/Stanford/49ers staff that had Polian, two of his sons, Harbaugh, a lot of guys constantly manuevering talent through the west coast programs and a few select NFL teams. 

I call these the silent "drinking buddy" trees of the league.  There are the coaching trees the media likes referring to but they forget the coordinator to position group connects and the ones who are actually friends from connections that aren't tied to their most recent employers. 

BTW, Matt LaFleur still can't hold his liquor, and never will.

No different than any other industry. Who you know often matters a lot more than what you know.

      25-26 NHL Regular Season Thread

      By Stumpy · Posted

      Great article on all the Lil Canes attending their debutantes ball. Walt with a great breakdown of all the rookies, as always, and I'm a huge fan of his team coverage, he is truly a treasure, but as a fan of mixed metaphors and superfluous language which some might ignorantly refer to as a "run-on sentence" I never really understood what that mean or where to put the comma after a quote in the middle of a sentence, but holy poo Walt, this is a gem, "While there's a long road left in front of them left to determine whether or not they'll have that same success on the blue line again, the beginning stretch of the journey has been thrown a wrench, and the story on defense has been the emergence of up-and-comers forced into becoming lineup regulars." , bravo, take a bow, sir!

      When the broadcast showed the two benches side by side during the last TV timeout, it was pretty obvious the whole operation is a shitshow. If I was the owner, I would play that clip, with commentary, on the jumbotron at MSG as I fired the coach, GM, President, the whole lot. Bring in your AHL leadership team, wholesale, to finish out the season and start from scratch next year.  Can't fire all the players and fold the season. But, hopefully decapitating the zombie will light a fire under the body and burn out the cancer of the roster. (It makes sense if you don't think about it...) There are obviously issues on the roster. But, you can't have the entire coaching staff completely tuned out with 5 minutes left in a 2 goal game this early in the season. And you can't trust the people that hired them to hire the next staff. If you trust your AHL GM/Scouts, let them run the deadline firesale.   ...     Please don't let the owner read any of this. Because, this poo is hilarous!
