LSU is doing everything right when it comes to building a championship-caliber coaching staff.
Since stripping the interim tag from coach Ed Orgeron, the Tigers have locked down arguably the best defensive coordinator in college football in Dave Aranda (three-year deal) and now, finally, have a proven, innovative offensive mind in Matt Canada.
Notable ESPN analysts such as Kirk Herbstreit and Booger McFarland agree.
Coach O promised a staff that is the best, hard to beat the combo of Orgeron Canada Aranda , Tigers in great hands #greatdaytobeatiger ????

Congrats @LSUfootball! Coach O has surrounded himself w/ 2 outstanding coordinators for the foreseeable future. Matt Canada is outstanding!

We’re a long ways away from determining whether these hires will get LSU over the hump, but for now, it’s an exciting time to be a Tiger fan.
