Another convenient excuse for 0. Weird how nothing is ever his fault.


So what did Orgeron do wrong in the recruitment of Surtain? Tell us what he could have possibly done to get a different result.

Or is just easy to knee jerk and make a derogatory comment about him.

He didn’t convince him to sign with LSU. Try not being Ed “Tomato Gumbo” Orgeron next time.

He could have had a contingency plan in place and not had all of his eggs in the basket of a kid who had been "committed" for 2+ years, yet didn't sign early. He went all in on Cam Akers last year, lost, and now the RB depth is pitiful. He went all in on Surtain this year, lost, and now the CB depth is pitiful. It's not even JUST losing Surtain, it's structuring his recruitment plan where he was even in a position to just sign ZERO CBs.

Turning down Goodrich who wanted to commit Sunday... Also saving a spot for that QB that was never coming.....it shows a scary lack of forethought and planning and instead hoping it would all just fall into place exactly how he wanted

Suck less. Ed Orgeron STILL has a career losing record as a head coach, and he just promoted a man to be the OC who was last an OC full time before Patrick was born.

But you're right...I'm sure there needed to be bigger reasons than that.

It’s not that hard to figure out. He loses. He’s lost to Bama 2 straight seasons and doesn't challenge for titles. Surtain said it’s about the w’s and l’s. O got too many of one and not enough of the other.

He could've not taken a position he knows he's not qualified for
