Per the dellenger article (and a source i have, but i won't spread rumors) before the florida loss the plan was to hire Orgeron this wednesday.

Why would we hire Orgeron before the season is over and before interviewing Herman or Fisher?

Unless:
1. We know we don't have the money for these guys

2. They have already told us no

And dont tell me Orgeron was higher on our list then they are

it's the same shite that saved Les last year, the stupid and embarrassing public sentiment that Alleva and the rest of those idiots hold so dearly to their hearts.

If we end up with Orgeron, it will be Alleva's undoing.

The way Orgeron looked after drubbing Arky suggests otherwise.

Smoke and mirrors.

O was never getting this job. He was only included in the mix to motivate O and the team and the fans and to keep their promise to O that he would be a legit candidate.

And the smoke and mirrors will continue for a couple more days because we still have a game that the program needs to win.

LSU has a vested interest in making it clear to everyone, O included, that he's still a possible candidate. But in reality, everyone knows deep down that the only way he's getting this job is for all hell to break lose and LSU get turned down by our Top3-4.

FWIW, I also think O's semi-success and support gave the administration a live, breathing, reasonable smokescreen for the real target(s) as well.

If true, this could be Mike Archer 2.0.

I hope you are right. But, it goes against everything I"m seeing and reading.

Well, that is the case positive of an effective smokescreen. We will soon find out...

A lot of what has come out has happened since the loss. What's the value in floating a rumor that Orgeron was going to be hired but now he's not?

If we can't get the top 3 or 4 coaches on our list then why not give O a shot , he was handcuffed with a less than mediocre offensive staff , let him put his own staff in place and see what he can do ....

that is of course we can't get Jimbo or Herman ....

If Orgeron is the coach it means we whiffed on Jimbo and Herman and Alleva should be fired.

If we hire Orgeron I will drive to Baton Rouge and yell very mean things outside the TAF building.

If Alleva hires Orgeron, he should be fired before he steps off the podium.

Dellenger tweeted that there was "no search" prior to the Florida loss, because they were simply going to give the job to Orgeron.

Now, they're apparently starting the search, although Orgeron is still a candidate, and will be interviewed on Friday.

The incompetence of Alleva and others in the administration is truly astounding.

1. We've got one more game that we need O to win

2. Mitigate the heat on Jimbo/Herman this week, as they both also have another game to play
