Well, he did shite his pants at Ole Miss. I'm all about a second chance in life, so maybe he'll prove us wrong? Until then, yeah, O sucked at Ole Miss. Would have been interesting if he got to coach that loaded 2008 team he did actually put together

Making all the right off-season moves, but the ranking is justified.

He has a golden opportunity to prove he's improved and move waaaaayy up in the rankings.

That seems to be a lousy listing with just a quick over view.

I'm actually surprised he wasn't lower. Hopefully he shoots up the rankings after this year.

I love Ed as a person but his tenure at ole miss was a complete disaster. Really no reason to think he's even a decent head coach at this point

On paper it was a terrible hire. Not a mediocre one. Terrible.

Hillarious.

The man has been a successful Defensive Coordinator, a great recruiter, a successful interim coach twice at two high profile programs, has probably the best staff in the country, and last but not least HE IS NOT AT OLE MISS.

Do you want to know the type of football program Ole Miss really is then just look at that disaster since Hugh Freeze arrived. Even cheating his arse off in Oxford got Freeze to 3rd in the SEC West. Ole Miss is the only original SEC West team to NEVER go to Atlanta. NEVER.

It's as if nothing has occurred in Coach Orgeron's career and he was at Ole Miss just yesterday.

Most of these preseason magazines are jokes and not worth their price and should be written on toilet paper.

Personally, I think that Orgeron will do quite well at LSU. It is going to be fun.

Big deal. If O is not a winner, we will shite can him too. Give me a roll of the dice over another decade of Les Miles ball any day.

That's about right for the rankings.


Where does he rank in the SEC?

Jimbo Fisher ahead of Dabo Swinney is an absolute joke.

Seems a little low after the turnaround he made last year. I know the Bama game is what ppl are pointing too but we almost won that thing and if not for some horrible calls by the refs it looked as thought we would have. Florida came down to two mistakes made on the field by players although the red zone play calling was bad. 81 just seems too low for a coach who's team took an awful start and ended up breaking multiple records and completely destroyed the heisman winner then had a great offseason with hires and recruiting.

These lists are totally a form of click bait, and hardly worth the powder to blow them to football hell.

He belongs at 81. Right now, everything is talk. It is up to him to improve his rating.
