Reason it won't be O

I'm a big fan of O's if you look back at any of my posts, but I am also a HUGE fan of Herman's. I like Fisher but not sold, can accept him over many others though.

Saying that to put into context that while I like O, I'm a realist. I've heard several head coaches give coaching presentations over the past several years and O was one of the better after his stint at USC. However, he killed his shot Saturday. Maybe if he had beaten Alabama, but even then... this is Alleva's hire, a statement hire that is going to determine his legacy at LSU. You cannot - repeat - you cannot lose that game to Florida. Any other season it wouldn't have mattered. This season, however, with all the turmoil surrounding that game being rescheduled - losing that game is embarrassing to Alleva.

I can say with certainty about my opinion that Orgeron will not be retained. Also, having talked with him in the past - he won't stay at LSU if not retained. Too much pride and he knows he can be a successful head coach - I don't doubt that he can. It just won't be at LSU.

Listening to Herman this past spring, amazing presentation and the only other coach I have heard with as much in depth technical knowledge of the game is Aranda. I can only imagine the success this team could have if they hit it off well together and both stayed here a long time (not happening either since Aranda will head coach somewhere in the coming years)
