instead of imploding how about being consistent


Notre Dame and Oklahoma got consistently blown out in the BCS the last decade. Be careful what you wish for.

LSU finished last in the sec west bc of Ed orgeron. Great job O

True. It's also true that O assembled the best team in LSU history whether people like to admit it or not. Doesn't mean he shouldn't have been fired. He won a natty and lost his mind. It's ok to acknowledge both.

There is literally no way to know if that’s true or not.

Not sure why the OP needed to point it out, but Chase's dad said that Ed O sent the entire LSU coaching staff to his home to try and get him and he said he told Ja'Marr that he couldn't just ignore that. Then Chase changed his committment to LSU.

This whole thread is based on the false premise that O was the only person who could have gotten Chase to LSU.

Had Ed not been hired, it is very possible that whoever had gotten the job could have made a connection with Chase and his family and landed him too.

Jimmy Chase ALWAYS wanted Ja’Marr at LSU.

Orgeron knew that and worked it until Ja’Marr signed. Like when he brought the entire staff to the Chase house.

Had Miles still been at LSU, Chase would not.

No. He recommended Burrow, but Joe didn’t come here because of Busch. Joe didn’t tear up talking about Bill Busch in his Heisman speech.

Everyone gives him his due credit for 2019. They also give him his due blame for the shite show of a program BK is working to fix.

People also forget that Jimmy Burrow told Ensminger at a JUCO they were both recruiting that Joe might be looking to transfer.

Burrow was going to Cincinnati before Orgeron convinced him to choose LSU.

Nowhere am I defending Orgeron in my OP.

I just forgot about the reading levels most Tiger Ranters have before posting.

I get that and if you want to credit O for landing Chase that’s fair.

But the idea that he was the only person in the world who could have possibly got Chase to LSU is ridiculous

And neither would Burrow.

Give credit where credit is due. Orgeron assembled the undisputed, greatest college football team of all-time.


You mean another more accomplished and qualified LSU coach couldn't have recruited a player from 70 miles away from campus? Or landed a transfer recruit for whom LSU was a perfect fit?

It's an exercise in idiocy to make such a claim.

If Orgeron was so damn good, why is he fired and LSU is playing Tuesday with less than half a roster?

Did you also forget about your own stupidity before you started typing words you don’t know the meaning of?

It’s just a coincidence that on a day we find out how many players are ineligible as a result of his failed leadership and lack of accountability you decided to start this thread.

Every single power 5 head coach passed. It was us or Cincinnati.

Bill knew Jimmy Burrow but O landed Joe. Without a doubt 100%

You had stud nfl QBs before Joe?

What’d we do with those studies the decade before O took over?

It makes y’all so mad that he did 2019 and I don’t know why
