The Coach Orgeron Vision/Plan
Posted on 12/15/16 at 3:35 pm
Posted on 12/15/16 at 3:35 pm
Coach Orgeron knows his leverage and his strengths.
His leverage/strengths are his Louisiana/Cajun heritage, his coaching experiences (DT, HC, etc...), his relationship skills, his recruiting prowess, his strong motivational skillset, and the fact that his players love him. He also has the binder, which many make fun of, but which shows he has been preparing for this opportunity for a couple of decades, inclusive of his coaching under and with National Championship and Super Bowl champion coaches.
As such, Coach O knows that his way to succeed in his dream job is to take a decidedly CEO-style approach, and to obtain and empower great coordinators and position coaches, while he recruits, organizes, addresses the media as the LSU football figure head, and through practice and game day motivation and management.
He knows he is not Saban or Urban Meyer at this stage of his coaching career. He knows who he is, and is smart and humble enough to stay in his wheelhouse. As time moves on, he could evolve to that level of a coach and persona, but in the mean time, he has a plan that has a great chance to work. And that is his focus.
Anyone who is not pleased with the staff he has assembled is trammeled to a poor attitude, or does not appreciate how hard it is to get such a staff onboard.
He took a salary which facilitated salary margin to get such a great staff. He knows that if he brings the Tigers back to championship status, that he'll get a market salary commensurate with such an achievement.
He knows that most big time programs are a rotating door at the OC and DC positions, so he will be assembling a constant list of candidates for when Aranda and Canada get their mid-major HC opportunity. That is nearly a certainty in the next 2-5 years, so that Binder needs to be constantly populated with candidates to plug in as time moves forward. That would makes LSU like tOSU, Bama and the other short list of program which have this challenge.
Many may have not had the patience to watch this all unfold, but now that it has, you owe the man his due, as this staff has to have any genuine Tiger fan feeling optimistic and pumped.
It is a very logical approach, yet no one can assess it until it gets tested.
That time is the 2017+ season(s).
I, for one, and thrilled.
As Coach O would say, Geaux Tigers

Step 1: check tigerdroppings
Step 2: check if tigerdroppings' preferred candidate is from Louisiana. If yes, hire immediately. If no, wait a week.

Don't act like he did LSU a favor by taking a low salary, come on.

I agree with this 100 percent. The man at the top must be flexible enough to make changes that are absolutely necessary to keep the program at or near the top. The last guy here failed to do that. Coach O will.
This is the future right now.

Looks like you have your emotional mind made up, so we'll except you from productive optimism and let you wallow in disgust...

Has anyone seen Saban's binder? It is sick, I think it was started by his father. I'm not joking, I once had a PDF of it. I will look for it.

Good observations. I would say that this board is evolving because if you had posted that 3 weeks ago you would have been drawn and quartered.

Orgeron should be alright if the hardheaded dumbass could win 9-10 a year

Disliking an AD for awful, emotional, and lazy decision making over more than a decade spanning two schools is not being emotional it is being logical.

The creator of this thread mad some great points,however some geniuses hijack it with a bunch if nonsense. I wouldn't be surprised if they are some of the one's who are posting thst they think LSU screwed up by hiring Bobby April as Special Teams Coach when he was only hired for the Bowl game! He is a consultant!! It is because they are damn stupud or lazy to read the link about it!

I hear a common style between Aranda & Canada which I like. Maximize the current athletes in a way that creates mis-matches. It's almost like they gave the same intro speech but with different styles. Aranda's D will continue to get better. He's still talking about the D's failure in the aTm game...which was a game which was never in doubt. That says a lot about Aranda. Canada sounds like a future HC but he's unproven at LSU. What he did to Clemson is amazing but that's one game. He's beaten teams with better talent which leads me to believe that his scheme works. He will have more (overall) talent at LSU than he's ever coached.
CEO can focus on what he does best. Recruit, inspire, and motivate. People may argue that we could have hired a better HC than O but could we have done that and had Aranda & Canada? Could we have done that and retained O who was a long time LSU target and I know that I didn't want to lose him. The last guy failed to maximize the strengths of his coaching staff yet he had the highest payroll in the country.
In reality, the Miles firing had very little impact on LSU or CEO's current class. We probably missed a few that were leaning LSU but that's to be expected when your ace is focussed on coaching hires. It's going to be a wild ride up to NSD.
