Most of you weren't around when the players petitioned and openly campaigned for Mike Archer. Well he was a huge flop and the beginning of 15+ years of losing and becoming the homecoming game for other teams. Well it is about to start all over again! What a joke!

In 1987, LSU promoted DC Mike Archer to be the HC when Arnsparger left to be the AD at Florida. He was hired over Steve Spurrier, Mack Brown and Mike Shanahan. LSU was as high as #5 in the nation in 87. This hire is why LSU football was irrelevant in the 90s for you young folks

I remember it vividly. Blame the keep O crowd, the same crowd that prevented us from firing Miles last year.

It's amazing how some people don't learn from history. I suppose this means our administration is arrogant in thinking they somehow "know" better or they are just stupid and have no idea what happened back then. What EVIDENCE is there that Orgeron will succeed? Please someone enlighten me. I need some facts to help me get over this awful mistake.
