Guidry nominated for Broyles award

[Coach Macho]

Literally, every aspect of our defense has gotten better since he has been here. I like the scheme (3-3-5), the game time adjustments (finally, in real time), and the fundamentals (attacking the ball, tackling, etc.). And he actually adjusts the defense to the personnel. Guy is an 11 out of 10 as a DC.

We would be 4-6 without this guy.

Created all the "chaos" that Manny tried to create but without all the glaring wide open zones and unsound gap control in the run game.

Dude has done a phenomenal job in year one. Excited to see what he can do when he gets more of his players. Hopefully he's even here that long.

Only TOP coach on our staff hands down! We MUST keep him at ALL costs!

 

[Damiencane86]

Home run hire. As much as losing to FSU sucked on Saturday I couldn't help but be proud of the defense and how they performed collectively.

 

[DNordy]

Well deserved coach!

Now, who are the replacement candidates for DC?

 

[KingB02]

He gone

 

[FrancisSawyer]

It’s going to be so hard to hold on to him this offseason

No it isn't.

He did bolt Tulane for Miami. Mario did give him his first P5 opportunity. Guidry seems like a loyal / humble / grateful guy and combined with his history…I would imagine that buys Mario at least 2 years no matter what. Fingers crossed

I agree....except if it's lsu. That's the one I think there's nothing we could do. It's such a strong pull for people from Louisiana.
But hopefully they don't look at him.

I like him as a coach alot better than I thought I would. Defense is definitely not the problem.

Still some things I'd like to see cleaned up.

 

[TemplarCane]

Pay raise to Top 5 DC and promotion to assistant head coach.

If he goes to LSU or anywhere else for that matter… Mario isn’t serious about winning.

He’s proved his worth with a mediocre defensive roster. He the reason why we have 6 wins.

There is a very good chance we are replacing both coordinators, again. I can see Taylor being the new DC.

Give whatever he wants before Sabag scoops him up.

 

[No_Fly_Zone]

Congrats and well deserved. Best coordinator hire we've had here in a minute. And his defenses tend to do even better year 2. Pay that man his money.

Good article on Guidry and his time at McNeese State. Among the fellow staff was Chris Hampton, who was the DC at Tulane last season before jumping to Oregon this season.

Where it all started, coaches trace roots to McNeese - American Press

McNeese State has always been known as a solid training ground for college football coaches. Many who got their start with the Cowboys have gone on to larger schools and higher profile jobs. Most give credit for what they learned at McNeese, mostly because they had to do so much it helped them...

For 3 more games

Prob will end up at LSU

Hoping Mario will give him a giant pay pump to keep him

 

[AtrainCane]

Where is this he’s leaving talk coming from. Or is this just our so called fans wanting Mario to fail again?

 

[canecrazy23]

He gone

 

[PennsylvaniaCane]

My LSU buddies want him or Durkin, bad, because they know House is a dead man walking.

Mario could explain to him that coaching for the hometown isn’t all it’s cracked up to be.
