re: I'm Watching the '16 BAMA game - a few thoughts...

quote:

---

Show me where each team was considered a contender for a national championship. The only people who thought that may have been the fans. LSU hasn't finished in the top 10 for 5 or more years. 

---

Lsu began the season at 5.

quote:

---

One team was 4-7 and the other was 4-5. 

---

No they weren't.

quote:

---

That's not royally sucking

---

frick no. Lsu finished 16th in 2015 and has won 10 games 4 of the last 5 years(I'm including mcneese).

quote:

---

Do you want me to do the losses which included blowouts of LSU by Ole Miss and Arkansas?

---

2015 arky was 11th in run defense
2016 arky was 89th

2015 ole miss was 21 st in run defense
2016 ole miss was 117th in run defense

In your previous post, you stated that O took over USC, who was preseason #1. LSU was also a top 5 preseason team. Pretty much every preseason publication had both of these teams as title contenders.

quote:

---

First off unless you are his agent you don't know he wasn't.

---

So he sat at home for a year, then took the LSU DL job, but he was getting DC offers?

quote:

---

You are one broken fricking record. 

---

The irony is glorious.

quote:

---

First off unless you are his agent you don't know he wasn't. 

---

Yeah I'm sure a career dline coach has been turning down coordinator offers.

quote:

---

Second at USC he became the IHC with a shot at becoming the permanent HC.

---

He was given the interim tag because both usc coordinators were 4 games into their tenure.

quote:

---

What makes you think he would accept a coordinator job if offered

---

Yeah I'm sure he has never wanted a promotion for 29 of his 32 year career.

quote:

---

Hmmm, that's a tough one, coordinator job or head coach at USC or LSU? 

---

Holy shite. So he has been turning down coordinator offers for 29 of his 32 year career IN CASE he got the USC and LSU head coaching jobs?
He has been turning down coordinator offers in hopes that he could one day jump from career position coach to head coach at 2 of the most prestigious programs in cfb?

You are too much.

The very first possession was a pick in their territory and what did we do? Sat on the ball like cowards. Miles had some bad game plans vs Bama but last year may have been the worst piece of vomit I've ever seen. It looked like they were playing for overtime the moment it was teed up. We did have some on field mistakes, oline play, WRs running the wrong routes among other things, Etling seeing ghosts early on but the gameplan and adjustments were all time bad.

And the odd thing to me was O had the opportunity to try and open up the offense and show everyone that we are gonna be aggressive on offense. Most wouldve given him a pass if he actually tried to spread bama out and we still lost because at least he wouldn't have run the same gameplan that we all know won't work against bama.

quote:

---

No they weren't

---

The hell the weren't. USC was 3-2 with wins against Hawaii, Utah St and another scrub and losses to Washington St and Arizona State. In their last 11 games they were 4-7. Coach O took over and their next 7 games he went 5-2 with a win over the #4 and Rose Bowl winning team.

LSU was 2-2 on the season and 4-5 their previous 9 games. Coach O took over and in the team's next 8 games he went 6-2 with one loss to the #1 team in the country at the time.

quote:

---

frick no. Lsu finished 16th in 2015 and has won 10 games 4 of the last 5 years(I'm including mcneese).

That's why you love Les Miles so much. You thought what he was doing at LSU was fantastic.

In your previous post, you stated that O took over USC, who was preseason #1

---

Hey Rich-Momma Minion #1. Where you been? Had to wait for Daddy to show up before you would post in this thread again?

My bad on the above quote, I was actually trying to make the point that Coach O took over for a guy who started the previous season (2012) ranked #1 in the country and finished unranked. The first coach to do it since the early 1960's.

I doubt very seriously USC started 2013 ranked number 1 in the nation since they finished 2012 with a 1-5 record in their last 6 games.

quote:

---

Cry me a river. Ed Orgeron has the #1 job on his own current staff. He is the HEAD COACH !!! 

---

In no way does that make his resume better right now.

quote:

---

Yep, what Coach O did was amazing, wasn't it? 

---

No we have a clown ad.

quote:

---

He fired Cam Cameron, HIRED Pete Jenkins and promoted Meatball. 

---

He didnt gire a single staff member during his interim tenure.

quote:

---

So in all your wisdom you somehow think being the Head Coach of a football program is not taking over said football program. WTF ????? 

---

Not as an interim coach that doesnt run a side of the ball or choose schemes. He is putting his finger prints on the program now.

quote:

---

The same statement in back-to-back paragraphs? Broken record much? 

---

The person using facts doesnt need to change their stance
.

quote:

---

Hell, I'll play, again He fired Cam Cameron, HIRED Pete Jenkinsand promoted Meatball. 

---

So just like I said...
Not hiring a single staff member as an interim coach.

quote:

---

I didn't realize you were a head coach. Football? Can't be since you know so little about it, but Congratulations for being a head coach !!! What sport? 

---

I didn't hire a single staff member on the 2016 lsu staff. Neither did O
I didn't run the 2016 lsu offense. Neither did O.
I didn't run the 2016 defense. Neither did O
I didn't choose schemes for 2016 lsu. Neither did O.

quote:

---

Neither has Urban Meyer and Dabo Swinney and they both have national championships. 

---

Both have proven they can run a successful program.

quote:

---

There was another "onky" time when Coach O fired Cam Cameron, Bradley Dale Peveto, Jabar Juluke, Demayune Craig, retained Dave Aranda, promoted Steve Ensminger and Meatball, hired Matt Canada, Tommie Robinson, and Mickey Joseph. Seems like that is putting his fingerprints on a program. Does it not? 

---

I said he is putting his finger prints on the program now. His finger prints weren't on the 2016 lsu program.

quote:

---

them to a 5-2 record. Took over a 4-5 LSU and lead the to 6-2. You are correct about the coordinator on this one - congrats !!

---

Wow I never knew that I've proven I can run a successful program.

If not hiring a single staff member,not running the defense,not running the offense and not choosing the schemes means youve proven you can run a successful program then I've been running successful programs my entire life.

quote:

---

I think Coach O is right there at the pinnacle of the top jobs in the world. He is the Head Football coach at LSU. I would give Ed the better resume over any or EVERY successful coordinat

---

Because you're stupid.

Ed Orgeron has one of the worst resumes for a HC of a big 6 sec program in the last 50 years. He has been a position coach for 29 of his 32 years. The 3 years that he was above a position coach was the worst tenure in ole miss history. That's a shite resume. Worse than Derek Mason at Vandy. Worse than Aranda. Worse than Canada. There is a reason he was ranked so low on the coaches' rankings.

quote:

---

Ed Orgeron = YES. He took over USC after a 4-7 skid and lead them to a 5-2 record. Took over a 4-5 LSU 

---

No he didn't.

quote:

---

think after the IHC stint at USC he knew where he was going to coach nex

---

Where?

quote:

---

As far as DC offers, neither you nor I know if there were any.

---

Yes we do. The fact that you actually believe Ed Orgeron was turning down coordinator offers in case our AD went full retard and hired a career dline coach, is glorious.

He has been turning down promotions for 29 of his 32 year career on the chance lsu would hire a 55 year old career dline coach that has never run a successful offense,defense or program.
