re: The Coach Orgeron Vision/Plan

The original post is practically a clinic on the most annoying facets of the most annoying O devotees on this site.

First, a Cajun/Louisiana heritage does not constitute a coaching strength in any rational world.

Second, if it required decades of planning to generate two flimsy binders that any MBA student with access to a Kinko's could surpass in a single cappuccino fueled all-nighter, I'm terrified of the future.

Third, please stop insinuating that O could "evolve" into Saban when he has a losing record as a HC and has never even coached a bowl.

Fourth, don't compare LSU's need to obtain great coordinators with Bama and Ohio State. Those teams both have tactical geniuses as HCS (one defensive, the other offensive). LSU has a much greater need for elite coordinators because our HC has no prowess on either side of the ball.

Finally, please don't pretend that O strategically decided to accept a lower salary in order to benefit LSU and implement his master stroke. He was paid a lower salary because no one else wanted to hire him and, hence, he had no leverage. In short, his market value was much lower.

The only thing you say which withstands scrutiny is that the O approach cannot be assessed until actual games are played over the course of a full season or two. The coordinator hires look promising, but that means nothing unless it translates into victory.

Your entire post was premature celebration. Let's see how things play out before we indulge in sanctimonious lectures directed at other LSU fans. Next up is the bowl, then signing day. We need a consensus top 5/10 clas
