Orgeron--Just My 2 Cents..

quote:

---

It is hard for a man who has been "the head man in charge" to play second-fiddle to anyone.

Gary Crowton disproves this point. I've never understood all this talk about Orgeron not being a good fit. There is no evidence in his past to suggest that to be true.

As with most jobs, it came down to the highest bidder.

You can't:

1) Hire Chavis, and put him in charge of a Defense
2) Pay a DL coach MORE than Chavis
3) Tell them to work together
4) Tell Larry Porter- "I think you are great, but Ed is now the Associate Head Coach".
5) Tell Josh Henson - " You've done a great job, but Ed is now the Recruiting Coordinator".
6) Live hapily ever after.

While I am all for stacking the staff with talent, this may be a blessing as far as chemistry to the staff.

Remember, Crowton is a Mormon. They operate differently.

Obviously he did not want to be here. We will be fantastic next year and years to come witout him. Plenty of qualified coaches available that will want to be here.

Amen, I think Les was getting a lot of pressure from some boosters and money people to hire Orgeron.Personally, I'm glad it didn't work out.Let the new DC hire who he wants to coach the DL. Someone that fits his scheme. Orgeron is all mouth and hype.

This is the best summary of the O situation. We are fortunate he went to Tennessee -- now Chavis and Les can put together their staff and let the Chief lead. We don't need Orgeron to recruit since recuruiting is the best it has ever, ever been at LSU.

All good points, plus we're not exactly hurting in the recruiting arena. I heard LSU's max offer was $425 which is still a lot for a position coach. Tenn gave him $625 plus probably promises to be the DC when Daddy retires.
