Cam Cameron new LSU OC
 
Best friends with Miles. Has coached the likes of Drew Brees, Philip Rivers, and Joe Flacco.

Quote:

You mentioned in your book that Cam Cameron was one of the few guys in the organization that believed in you all along. What did he mean to your career? “He was huge. Cam was huge in my career. I was with him for four years. He was the offensive coordinator while I was in San Diego for those last four years. That was a time in my career where during that stretch I got benched three or four times, they ended up drafting Philip Rivers. Cam was pretty much the one who broke the news to me. My postseason exit meeting with him after the ’03 season I went in his office, shut the door and (he said) I’m just telling you they’re either going to go out and get a free agent veteran quarterback to come in here or they’re going to draft a rookie high to compete with you. Just get ready for that. I feel like he was always very honest with me. He always did things to try to get the best out of me. There was a time or two where we would butt heads, but I think that was all part of the process of him trying to mold me into the type of quarterback he knew I could be, the type of person he knew I could be, leader and I appreciate him for that. I love the man. I think he’s a great coach and obviously I had a lot of great years with him.”

There should be no more excuses.

I hope so. Having a pro coach with extensive success will certainly make a recruit do a double take. With his resume, now maybe coach Miles will finally give his OC full reigns to the offense. Instead of 3 guys giving them input(Miles/Stud/Kragthorpe), now it'll just be one.

I wish Mettenberger had more than a year to work with Cam. Should definitely pay dividends with Stephen Rivers and the two highly touted QB recruits that just signed.

Is Mittens leaving a year early?

This is an impressive hire. Papz is right, LSU has no more excuses.

I really hope this can help get the offense going. The talent is there but they have been vastly underperforming.

Agree. I've thought that for a while now. Gone are the days that we (any one) can rely on the D to win the game. Our offense has been left in the dust for a couple of years now. Time to pick up tempo.

LSU has played with a half deck of cards mostly from 2011 when Kraigthorpe stepped down as OC the day the season started and was replaced by their o-line coach.

Since that time, with a team LOADED with talent, the offense has been offensive.

Should make a HUGE difference.

I hope so cause Metinburger has been a disapointment. Came with such fan fair and he looked like crap.

Lets not forget, Miles is old school, running the ball will still be our m.o.

I wouldn't say Mettenberger has been a disappointment but ther surely is room for improvement.

Cam had to make some kind of no interferance from les miles in the play calling to come to lsu. If so there will be a difference.

I thought the kid grew up during the season leading up to the Bama game when he was awesome. He was fantastic the rest of the season.

As for the playcall, LSU was hopeless without a OC. The playcall was horrible first half of the season, and the "suprise" Les Miles calls were ALL A MISS this year.

Dear Cam,

No more press conferences.
Just call the plays on offense.
