It wasn’t just 1 guy. We had a dominant team

Y’all get mad but here’s a bitchslap of truth - the man that built it is Ed Orgeron

Joe Burrow - Ed brought him in when everyone else but Cincinnati passed

Justin Jefferson- O caught shite for taking a 3*/2* WR

Jamar Chase - O landed him when Les wanted him to play safety and he committed to Florida.

Terrace Marshall- Jimbo pulled out every stop he had but Ed got him to lsu

Joe Brady and Steve Ensminger- no one was giving these guys a OC job. Ed did.

Klavon Chaisson was basically locked in at Texas and Ed wouldn’t let him go. Leading to the infamous recruiting trip where O was at his house at 5am and followed Klavon right up to the gate at the airport gate when Chaisson was leaving for Florida. He literally did a 20 min recruiting trip with him while walking through an airport.

Jacob Phillips was committed too and locked in at OU. When Dylan Moses and Chris Allen spurned us- Ed got Jacob to flip a few days before signing day.


Patrick Queen, Klavon Chaisson, Derek Stingley, Jacoby Stevens, Fehoko, Grant Delpit, Damien Lewis and Cade York all signed up under O.

He clearly screwed the pooch and crashed the Ferrari into a brick wall- but he gets 100% credit for 2019. As he should

I agree 100%. People credited Miles NC to Saban, but not many credited O's NC to Miles. LSU was Orgeron's dream job and for a short period of time he delivered. I believe his big problem was that he lacked the focus and self-discipline to maintain what he had. He accomplished something that no one, including himself ever thought that he would be capable of. He got his ring and huge payday and was content. Now (if he is at all wise) he is set for life and will never have to worry about working another day!
