Cam Cameron new LSU OC

Best friends with Miles. Has coached the likes of Drew Brees, Philip Rivers, and Joe Flacco.

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?

papz · 02-08-2013, 04:09 PM

This is his last year of eligibility.

Damn, I don't like that at all.

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.
