Paul Finebaum Reveals His National Coach Of The Year Pick

by Staff Reporter

October 28, 201938 Comments

On Monday morning, ESPN college football analyst Paul Finebaum was on “The Roundtable” on Birmingham-based JOX 94.5 radio station and said that his pick for National Coach of the Year is LSU's Ed Orgeron. Per 247Sports.com:

quote:
“Anyone who says they saw this coming is not being truthful," Finebaum said. "As of this moment, and again we all know what date it is, Ed Orgeron is the national coach of the year. He’s been spectacular in so many different ways. And he’s done it because of some chess moves that he’s made. The move that nobody is talking about is his ability to work with Steve Ensminger in bringing in Joe Brady. Steve Ensminger is still there, still influential in that meeting room. Instead of pouting like a lot of us would have done, he embraced the move by Coach O to bring in Joe Brady. He’s mentored him. He’s nurtured him based on everything I was able to glean … This guy has surprised us all. It’s the feel-good story of 2019.”

We agree, Paul.

It’s funny how Tiger fans get all butthurt when someone criticizes something but then still get butthurt when someone admits they had it wrong. What’s wrong with just saying something like.... “glad he admits he was wrong”. Instead they want to stay pissed. Lol

Do y'all remember a few years ago when LSU hired Coach O full time and everyone freaked out and said it was a bad idea...

Brady has been the different. Idk how y'all don't see that.

StupidBinder•79 months

Yep (hand raised). Couldn’t be more excited about being wrong!

fknbleedpurplengold•79 months

I was one who absolutely did not like the move. I didn't come on here and bash coach o or lsu however. But I admit, i was dead wrong!

So Paul is finally and justly fearing the binder!

Tigerik•79 months

Paul attended TN and seems like a Bama homer and Saban devotee, but he's speaking the truth with this. Coach Orgeron IS the national coach of the year so far. He Comin! ;)

It really should be unanimous.

Big Scrub TX•79 months

Nobody is talking about Ensminger and Brady? That's all anyone is talking about.

“The move that nobody is talking about is his ability to work with Steve Ensminger in bringing in Joe Brady.”
NOBODY, Paul? Gawd

Get on the bandwagon Mr. Finebaum! There’s plenty of room.
