Paul Finebaum Chimes In On Ed Orgeron's Hot Seat Status

What LSU fans does he know ? LSU fans don’t love anyone or anything

Chase and Joseph will have you guys pissing on yourself soon enough. Tigers will be way better than expected. They have some issues on Offense but will be way more balanced than last season. Get ready haze

He needs to worry about his own seat. Hopefully his time is up on the SEC network

Paul looks a like a bald, monkey ass.

Helping bama recruit....

It’s just excruciatingly dumb to talk about being in the hot seat in the preseason of your second year on the cusp of a legitimate top 5 class this year in recruiting. You give any coach 4 years. That’s reasonable. We have lived with a good 4 years of compete mediocrity already. You have to give the new coach 4 years to get his players recruited and develop the talent he accrues. Whether you like said coach or not. For him to be fired in 3 years you would have to have something colossal happen which as 3 straight sub 8 win seasons and 3 straight years with sub par recruiting classes. This is already financial figured in a coaches buyout which is why the number goes down entering 3rd and 4th year to a manageable level. When you get a coach. You have bought him for at least 3 years and most likely 4 full years. It’s how it is in the contract and it’s also what’s fair to the coach.

If O goes 8-4 his second season, with one of those loses being to Fischer and the Aggies, his seat will be hotter than his momma’s pepper boudin.

LSU fans hate everyone. We don’t count

It's all subjective but I don't think his seat is hot yet. I think it's warm but I think any coach at LSU or any other top program, the seat would be warm until proven otherwise. A 7-5 season would have it extremly hot and 8-4 would have it hot IMO. If this is how the season goes LSU should be looking for a new coach after the season or have a solid list of candidates for sure. If he has another average season the year after then he should be gone immediately. He would have to progress to 10-2 with a bowl win in 2019 for his seat to cool. I would still have my list ready in 2020 just in case it was a matter of luck or scheduling. Now if in 2020 he continues or raises the success then he should get another 4 years IMO. It would prove that he can win with his own players. I think he would have to have a win or two against Bama in that time frame to extend his contract as well. Even if he goes 10-2 but loses to Bama every year means he will not be able to get us to an SEC championship. That's not what LSU wants. LSU wants to be back at a championship level so if he can't get that done then it's time to move on.

Bama homer and Springer wannabe weighs in on LSU football.

Fans love him... lmao

I love Coach O with that being said he has no business being the face of LSU football

“Fans love him” ummmm........

Pawwwwl is a dumbass

I don't care about comments from others outside a program's fan base. They don't truly care to see the team any better. 7 and 5 would be absolutely atrocious.

I hate LSU but damn Paul is a freaking idiot... Why would LSU be fine with 7 wins but fire miles for winning 9-10 on the reg?

Fans love him? Lol other sec west fans sure do. Not LSU fans that actually want to win.

Paul needs his eyeglass prescription changed. He sees things differently than most of the Tiger faithful. There are a lot of Tigers that like Coach O...others see him as a disaster waiting to happen. To say the fans love him is a bit myopic at best. What PF fails to state/realize is how rabid a fan base LSU has...and those same fans who "love him" on Saturday could turn on him on Monday. I see where Phil Steele also has Coach O on the hot seat...I don't think it's that bad, yet. Only time will tell to be truthful.

what similarities with miles????????????? miles had an 8 year history of bad coaching and refusing to change, when "O" has done the same for 8 years then, and only then, can you say he should be judged similarly on his last 2 seasons. Paul Finebaum is an idiot and always has been one.

7-5 isn't enough? If averaging 10 wins wasn't enough for Miles, why tf is 7 enough for Ed O?
