If Les Miles was fired after Texas A&M game last year and replaced by Ed Orgeron, what color Fire Joe Alleva sign would you have bought to put up in your yard?

Then ask yourself why beating up on some shitty teams as an interim coach changes that feeling.

We would have no more than one loss at this point. Stop whining.

LSU would be a playoff team now. Also without Frank Wilson and O on the staff you might say hello to 90s and Curley Hallman . Recruiting is what matters , even Miles could win enough with recruiting.

You're right because we all know that jimbo is a horrible recruiter. Do you people think before you type or is this the best you could come up with?

I think that's false, Miles being fired last year would mean Aranda never gets to LSU. I would hate to see how this team would look without Aranda's coaching.

I don't put signs in my yard...I would think yours would be blood red and stuck in a pile of sand.

Miles didn't beat up on shitty teams, he just won the games. So I probably would view dominating wins as a positive.

WTF does Jimbo have to do with this? Did you just automatically assume he would be the coach now? Did you think before you wrote that or is it the best you could come up with?

Is this person even a coach? I am not following where you are going with this question

If you have Aranda, coach O, and a top notch OC I am not sure what a new HC brings to the table.

Who the frick is Fred Orgegon and why does he care what color signs I have in my yard.?

In all seriousness, I feel when placing signs in your yard it is best for the body of the sign to be the color of your house with the letters the color of your shutters and trim pieces (as long as they are contrasting colors)

Hope this has been of some help to you in choosing sign coloring for your yard. Thanks in advance.

Being better than Les Miles does not mean he should get the job.

Beating teams by a lot they should beat by a lot does not mean he should get the job.

That's pretty low standards for a coaching hire for a program like LSU.

Good point, remember all the NC's we've won with them being on staff? Yeah me either.

Since 2011, jimbo has recruited about the same as LSU. That's with frank and O's time period.

Don't be an idiot.

None of these goofballs realize it, but there are many wonderful recruiters out in the world. Juluke is one of them.

We can make it just fine without O if need be. But I would rather keep him on staff.

Jimbos offense plus actually winning games will go a long way in recruiting anyway.

Jimbo has 3 conference losses last year and again this year. He's not perfect.

Awesome. I'm sure you've got a better candidate in mind. Let's here it.

ETA: I checked your post history. You like O if he wins out over Fisher. You might want to look at O's conference record...

I was early on the Herman train, going back to last year before he was a sensation on this board. I thought Herman was a can't miss hire and I also thought Fisher was a homerun hire. I was deeply depressed when they decided to keep Miles on. I would have probably thrown up in my mouth a little bit at the thought of Orgeron getting the job.

Fast forward a year. I still like Herman and would be happy to have him but I'm no longer convinced he is a can't miss coach. I think the odds are that he likely will be the next great coach but my expectations have been tempered a bit. I still think Fisher is a can't lose hire. He will always recruit well and he'll at least have LSU in the conversion for the West title and the playoffs most years. I would love to have him.

But I like what Orgeron has done with this team. The offense needs a major overhaul but I believe he'll be committed to getting it done. The players love him and the coaches love him. True, the schedule has not turned out to be as formidable as we once thought but does anyone believe we would be 6-3 (4-1) with a 10-pt loss to UA if Miles was still here? I think we'd be 4-5 at best and maybe not even that. Every facet of the team has improved under Orgeron. Could any interim coach have pulled this off? Maybe, but they didn't, Orgeron did. We'll never know. I'm also intrigued about the idea of Aranda getting the head job. I think he would kill it.

The LSU fan base puts too much emphasis on "skins on the wall". If a coach is the right guy, he's the right guy. I would be happy with Herman, Fisher, Orgeron, or Aranda.

No because nobody is perfect but he's much better than Orgeron.
