Here’s the entire episode that was filmed, with O’s entire interview. Starts at about the 25 minute mark.

Love that man



Same here! I hold no ill will towards Coach O. He left here having had four winning seasons and two .500 seasons, and gave us the greatest team in LSU history. He'll always be one of my favorite LSU coaches.

You should love your father. You obviously hate LSU by your behavior the entire time he was HC

Quote really tells you all you need to know about him, doesn't it? No sense of loyalty, commitment, dedication. Just give me my money and I'm gone.

I expect the response from the thread will shite on him for this comment but he went out gracefully, didn't make a big stink, has been complimentary of LSU and how it was handled.




I guarantee you there was a non-disparagement agreement as part of the deal. Both sides know where the bodies are buried. If he wants to keep his money he knows to play nice.

Well yea why wouldn’t he be friends with Woody who gave him a massive contract and then wasn’t smart enough to take advantage of situations to lower the buy out.

I think the pandemic had a lot to do with LSU's short comings.

It takes a demented personality to want to work that hard for that long.


not really. hard workers are hard workers regardless of their pay. that was an awful answer from a Coach. A good high school coach wouldn't say that publicly.

Say what you want about O, but I'm looking forward to when he and that 2019 team are in Tiger Stadium again in 2029 or whenever that reunion may be. I hope to be in the building that day.

He has a National Championship, BK doesn't.
BK, you are on the clock to prove you are a better HC than Orgeron.

I remember the interview before a game and Coach O and his wife talked about the struggles with her medical issues. And how a rock O was to stand by her. Then when I heard what happened it pissed me off. The O went off the rails. He left our program in a heap.

Probably the worse coach to win a NC. Failed at OM and basically bombed out quick at LSU of all places.

And proof of this was evident Sunday night by the lack of veteran talent at so many position groups.



or the fact that he admitted he didn't even interview his defensive coordinator before hiring him
