We will fire him right before the Texas A&M game. The 19 class will be pillaged by Saban, Fisher, and Mullen.

I argued with you and Choctaw over Les for many months.

I stand by that position (that Les needed to go), but if I had known Alleva was gonna hire Ed Orgeron, I would’ve been right there alongside y’all.

Clay Travis can't make a good gumbo and he is jealous......



But what he said is true!

Anyone who followed Travis’ opinions on the Tennessee’s coaching possibilities will find this funny.

results with les would have probably been the same this year but at least we would have saved some money on the buyout.

Well, the silver lining may be that if LSU decides to make a coaching change after next season it should be one of, if not the BEST job available in light of the coaching change blitz these last 2 years. Ark, A&M, MSU, Tenn., Florida, all just made new hires this year. Georgia and Alabama aren't (voluntarily) making a change anytime soon and Auburn just locked themselves to Gus with a big contract. Outside the SEC Ohio St. is fine. Texas isn't bailing on Herman after two seasons. FSU just hired a new coach. USC likely wouldn't get rid of Helton after just winning the Pac 12. The only potential big firings on the horizon would be Michigan and Notre Dame. Harbaugh hasn't lived up to the expectations yet, but that is a huge contract to eat after 5 years (though he may voluntarily leave). ND is a crap shoot. Could be good. Could bottom out again. ND has money, but does it still have the prestige it once had? It's entirely possible that LSU could be THE job if they decide to walk away from O next season


Very well thought-out post and I thank you for making it, but, IMHO the LSU football powers that be will ignore all of that and, if Aranda is still at LSU when it's time to make a change at HC, LSU will promote Aranda in order to avoid the difficult process of a coaching search and contract negotiation.

Les needed to go but hiring Ed Orgeron as the successor might go down as the worst decision an athletic director ever made in the history of college athletics. That isn't hyperbole or an exaggeration.

I just called you out for your complete role reversal here, not your negativity towards O.

I have been against the O hire since the beginning.



So people are not allowed to change theirs minds once they have more information to judge by?

It does not excuse those two regarding Miles, but yes:

IF Ed Orgeron was the only alternative ...

WHY the frick did we fire Miles?
