I like the man but not as the Head Coach. It baffles the shite out of me how so many people want to hire him. I wouldn't even have him as my 3rd option. The guy has never ran a successful program. Yes he won games as a interm at LSU and USC, but this was at programs well established. The only time he ran a program where is was totally his he failed big time. You cannot ignore that he allowed a player ( fournette ) to dictate to him that he would play. Allowing him to play clearly hurt the team. I am not a fan of Larry Fedora but he would be a much better hire than Orgeron. At least Fedora has built and established successful programs at Southern Miss and North Carolina.

If I had to rank it, with Jimbo removed because it appears he is out.


1. Herman
2. Fedora

3. Orgeron and the rest of the cast of characters. If it gets to 3 we are fricked anyway.

He's not going to be the coach.

Every possible downside to O being HC has been discussed ad nauseam.


Thank you.

Lighten up dude, this is not an election.
We are merely observers.
None of us have any say in this matter.

Be right back, Aleva is on the phone.

Love Coach O and what he's stepped in and done for LSU, but it would be another Archer hire and we know who followed Archer...

Good lord y'all are drama queens.

I dont think O should be hired now, but this is just stupid. He could at least maintain 8-10 wins a year.

I disagree. I think LSU will be fine with either Ed O, Hernan, or Fisher. I think those people adamant about any of these guys being a huge mistake are being over-exaggerating drama queens.

It baffles me that so many lsu fans think their opinion means so much.


And no I don't want O over Herman. I don't want Jimbleaux

He inherited poor talent at Ole Miss. He was building up the talent there but was out before it showed up as. wins.

Orgeron said in the days leading up to the game that Fournette was ready to go. I really think it was borderline.

Coach O is 4th on my list, but why do you all continue to start threads to say the same thing?

What's the payoff?

People bash Fedora and he is the exciting pick but would be much better than O. Only concern I have with Fedora is with his teams defenses.

Yet he didn't practice all weak? That was for media and opponents consumption.

Your not too smart if you believe this after seeing him take snaps.

I'm not saying I want ed o as head coach but why do people keep comparing him to Mike archer? Besides being an interim head coach at LSU, what do these two coaches have in common?

Yes a disaster, just like him taking a 2-2 team and being a Jackson/guice fricking from making the sugar bowl...without a legit OC. I'm guessing you are 20-21 years old so I'll giv you a pass on your dramatic and knee jerk statements.
