Thread: My recommendation for Coach Desormeaux

  1. #1

    UL Football My recommendation for Coach Desormeaux

    My recommendation for Coach Desormeaux in 2024 is to let someone else call offensive plays so you can motivate players and direct game flow the way the Jacksonville coach did.

    I would recommend he not use scripted series to start a game.

    The value gained of always thinking on your feet would play dividends at the end of games which is where it seemed like Louisiana struggled most.

    Basically the need is to think faster and scripted series slow us down in the learning to think fast department.

    Predictably. If the ball is on a hash mark, first down screen to the short side.

    We all know it will be the EXACT same scene come 2024 season. It's depressing to say the least. If we hold this course, back 2 back ranked seasons disappear. Hell, we still don't have the banners from those seasons in CF! But thank goodness we have a R1 banner in the Dome? Whew, close one.

    Desormeaux's pre-game "pump up" speech was terrible.. and of course they showed it on TV.

    He's not a hype man. He's not a voice in the local scene. He's not a great play caller. He's not a good game manager.

    Book is still out on his upcoming portal + recruiting class

    He repeats everything Napier said. "You got me" "You understand" "You with me" etc, etc...

    I don’t want to hear anymore, “it starts and stops with me” if he won’t give up playcalling. Saying that and doing nothing to change is just empty words. Produce next season or we should move on. We won’t but we should.

    Anyone "can" become a better speaker.

    Motivational speaking is trickier because a coach needs 13 game opening motivational speaches a year saving his best for last.

    It "can" be done.

    Take notes, write it down, practice, don't use a script, and don't wing it.

    ps the head coach also needs 1000 micro focus pep talks for the sidelines

    They may be empty words, it's also the most requested phrase here the last 22 years.

    Winning is the only solution because after that, fault will be found no matter how losing is handled.
