After Lane Kiffin got fired by USC in 2013, Ed was named interim head coach and had a 6-2 record.

I still see you guys going after Tom Herman, Jimbo Fisher and a dark horse candidate

Most people are too hype on Herman to admit that out of all our current outcomes, keeping Coach O is by far the most likely.

He went 3-21 in SEC play with the Rebs. That's an average of exactly 1-7.

Is Jimbo even a realistic candidate?

I would keep Coach O, he is a Louisiana native and can recruit like no other.

Well you certainly have no idea what you are talking about. That's what I have been told when I mentioned Orgeron might be the guy.

Well he has top talent at LSU so I say it will be different than at Ole Miss.

I wish he would, but I doubt it. this team will struggle against at least half the remaining opponents. Etling is better than Harris, but he's still not that good. LF is banged up and that ankle won't be much better this season. And worst of all, the oline isn't good.

O will do better than Miles would have done.

He beat one good team and after that his wins were to some shitty arse teams. Y'all are over hyping the hell out of his head coaching skills.

I would hope that LF7 will sit out the rest of the year and just get ready for the draft

He brought talent into Ole Miss and failed.

He's a terrible gameday coach. Maybe the worst I've ever seen. And I was at Ole Miss during the Ed O reign. That football team was the fricking wild west. He was an absolute embarrassment as a HC and CEO of a program. Total lack of institutional control, HORRIBLE team discipline, and absolutely embarrassing results on the field.

People just want Ed O to be our head coach because he’s “a good ole Luziana cajun boy who ‘croots well and screams a lot!”.

The guy should never be more than a recruiter and DL coach at LSU or any other major program.


ETA:

Taking over as an interim coach with a system, players, and coordinators already in place, is not the same as making a program "yours". They went 6-2 with one good win and one terrible loss. The other 5-1 were 5 easy wins and 1 expected loss.

He did not take an 0-11 bottom feeder to a conference championship. They named him interim there for the reasons they did here. He will keep the recruits on board and the players won't quit the season because they love him.

Oregeron had plenty talented players on his team at ole miss. Enough talent that averaging only 3 wins a year is criminal.

O could win out and he will still not be retained for the next year as HC. The people writing the checks want a proven winner with successful HC experience. O was atrocious in his only true HC gig, and had only brief success at USC. His resume is at the very bottom of the stack.

O is not being retained as a head coach, unless he runs the table, wins the SEC and makes the CFB Playoff by some miracle of God. IE it isn't happening.
