Does the LSU administration understand
We are talking about the guys who fire a NC coach who averaged ten wins a year and replaced him with a DL guy who has never even sniffed any title. After the new guy goes 10-3, 5-3 to finish third in the west and fifth in the SEC these guys think a raise and extension is in order.
Don't hold your breath expecting them to learn anything.

Did coach O manipulate things in any way that caused any of the above to happen as it did or did he just play out things as they were laid out?
Ed Orgeron isn't the reason Miami went 7-6

I think Alleva gets it. But the bastards of the BOS don’t give him any authority or Leeway.
We saw that when the Facebook moms prevented miles from getting fired.
I do however think Alleva got suckered into a bad, bad, BAD 2012 miles extension.
Saban prolly offered Arky a couple million To feign interest in miles forcing LSU to act. That was the nail in the coffin for our football program’s rise. The decline was real.

Right. The price is one of the lowest in the SEC in a top ten profitable NCAA CFB program.
That's called value.

I demand that LSU supply our basketball program with Will Wade. Is that how it works?

MSU, Miami, and Auburn were atrocious compared to expectations this year.
Ok but Florida ended up being a top ten loss on the road. That’s not as bad as people originally thought at the time of the game.

he's not responsible at all for those records? I could have sworn he beat all those three teams.

Are you stupid or something?
He's not responsible for Auburn going from a top 10 team to a 7 win team
He's not responsible for Miami going from a top 10 team to a 8 win team
He's not responsible for Miss St going from a top 15 team to a 8 win team

No, just responding to your post. If you intended to frame your argument differently, then that's a you problem. Had we lost to State, State goes into bowl season 9-3, Auburn 8-4, and Miami 8-4. State may have even been ranked in the top 10. So, in fact, Orgeron and LSU are objectively part of the reason those teams finished with the records and rankings they did. Look at State's losses, for instance. They lost @ #1 Alabama, @ #7 LSU, @ #10 Kentucky, and #6 Florida in the regular season. You don't think one of those games going a different way, maybe just maybe results in a different outcome and ranking for them?
No, I'm not "stupid." I just don't think emotionally like you seem to be doing ITT

Why are you posting their at the time rankings?
LSU was projected to go 7-5 or 8-4 mainly because their schedule was going to be filled with a top 10 Miami, top 10 Auburn, and a top 15 Miss St.
LSU's schedule underachieved just as much as LSU football overachieved

I'm not, other than Alabama, my apologies, that was an oversight, so change the 1 with a 2, doesn't really make a material difference. LSU and Florida finished the season 6 and 7 and Kentucky finished 10th. If I did "at the time of the game," Florida was unranked, Kentucky was unranked, and LSU was ranked 5th.

That's why they play the games. LSU, relative to the other teams in the country this year, earned a 6/7 ranking at the end of the season based on who they beat and who they lost to. If you disagree with the polls, you are entitled to that opinion, but it's still just that, your opinion. We all have them. people disagreeing with yours doesn't make them "stupid," as you so eloquently put it.

The scenario of a recruit or his parent asking Orgeron the following question:
Coach, why isnt your contract extended to a year in which I'll be a junior or senior
Is just as likely as:
Coach, why should I come to LSU when you are making half of what Saban, Dabo, Kirby Smart, Dan Mullen, etc. are making? Why is LSU paying it's HC so low?
This. No program has ever lost a recruit because the hc was under contract for 3 years instead of 5 years.

Ed is a yes man.
Remember when Ed and his OC weren’t getting along? Ed allowed JA to to sit in on watching game film with them. What respectable HC would allow the AD to sit in a film session? It also shows how worthless JA is as AD. No other AD would’ve done this

LSU finished the regular season with the #1 ranked strength of schedule according to both TeamRankings and S&P+. I believe we had #1 SoS in the Sagarin rankings too, but I can’t seem to find that data from before the conference championships. Obviously the SoS ranking suffered a bit following conference championships and the CFP, but our regular season schedule was difficult regardless.
FWIW, S&P+ predicted the average top 5 team would win 78.9% of its games against our regular season schedule. LSU won 75% (10-2 would have been 83.3%).
