Look. I'm riding yaw's airboat all the way to the end, but we don't have to pretend yaw is Pete carroll.

I don't think he's going to tank or elevate LSU. Probably a lot of 9-4/10-3

Florida was fun. We also played great against subpar opponents [see above]

why don't we let the season play out before we crown or shite on Orgeron?

All I've done is list Orgeron's head coaching achievements. How is that shitting on him?

Listen, I hope Orgeron wins many titles at LSU. I just don't think it will happen (I hope he proves me wrong).

USC has been every bit as much a top tier program as LSU, you could say even more than LSU. Both are trying to get back to where they were 10 years ago.

Good point. At the time, I didn't know anything about him, so yes.

I don't think Gundy, at this point in his career is a good comparison, but I can definitely concede the similarities in young Saban and Fedora. So you're saying Fedora is the offensive version of the next Saban?

Wasn't that your argument for why O is the savior? Going 9-3?


Hell no. 9-3 is completely unacceptable. I'm not sure where you thought I said that would be fine. You would be ok with that? I think we'll be favored in 10 games this year and maybe 11 depending on how Florida looks early.

You can't argue that there were much much better options out there

Sure I can, I might be wrong, but you might also be wrong. After Jimbo was out, I really didn't have much preference between Herman and Orgeron. Fedora was my next pick after that.

I'm just saying that Gundy would win bigger at LSU than he has at his current school. Just like Nick and Les did, and as Orgeron will do too. LSU has many competitive advantages compared to other schools

Will Orgeron do better than he did at Ole Miss? Hell yeah. But will he win big? We shall see

Saban @ Michigan State
6-5-1
6-6
7-5
6-6
9-2

Saban @ LSU
8-4
10-3
8-5
13-1
9-3

Les @ Oklahoma State
4-7
8-5
9-4
7-5

Les @ LSU
11-2
11-2
12-2
8-5
9-4
11-2
Etc

Ed @ Ole Miss
3-8
4-8
3-9

Ed @ USC
6-2

Ed @ LSU
6-2

Fedora and Gundy have won conference championships? Plural? Gundy has one Big 12 championship and that was the year he lost at home to a 6-7 Iowa State team to cost himself the opportunity to get skull fricked in New Orleans by our tigers. If he had won that game, we wouldn't even be having this discussion right now. Anyway...good times.

Florida sucked balls. But, other than insisting on keeping Fournette in the game in the first half, when it was so obvious that the offense was better with Guice in there, I didn't see much else that was coaching for the reason we lost. We moved the ball up and down the field, they just kept making plays in the red zone. And when Beckwith went down, they were able to run right down our throats. And I'm 90% sure Guice scores if he had gone the right way.

You asked proven head coaches (plural) to do what. Win conference championships (plural because they each won one).

And Oklahoma State lost on the road.

Fedora won a conference title? Where? Not at UNC I don't believe.

Home. Road. Whatever. They still lost and I'm still a little bitter about it.

Only if you deliberately blow his record way out of context as you always do and then at the same time claim you aren't a Coach O hater like you always do too.

Anyway, the reason Coach O's record isn't spectacular is like Coach Charlie Strong, Coach O agreed to take on the task of rebuilding the Ole Miss football program after it had been decimated via bad recruiting for years by his predecessor Coach Cutcliffe. As the Ole Miss administration had for several years tried to get Coach Cutcliffe to improve his recruiting. Thus, when the inevitable finally happened and Coach Cutcliffe had his first losing season, unlike most coaches that had been at a university for some time with a winning record, Coach Cutcliffe was fired the very first season it happened because the Ole Miss administration had been trying for years to get him to improve his recruiting before it was finally too late, and they also knew that Coach Cutcliffe would never be able to rebuild the program not the way he had been recruiting and so they fired him citing poor recruiting as the primary cause for termination and hired Coach O to rebuild the program.

So Coach O signed a 4 years contract to rebuild the team and ended up inheriting Coach Cutcliffe's piss poor players and for three years like Coach Cutcliffe and like Coach Charlie Strong at Texas, Coach O couldn't win with those piss poor players either. No one could, not in the SEC.
,
However, Coach O recruited very well, which is something his haters and detractors will never acknowledge. Anyway, after three years and with one year still remaining on his contract Coach O was fired by Ole Miss even though they had promised him they wouldn't fire him before his four-year contract was up. Then Coach Houston Nutt replaced Coach O and then immediately started winning for three straight years with the players that Coach O had recruited and then after three years when those players had all graduated or were no longer eligible, Coach Houston Nutt suddenly couldn't with his own players and ended up being fired too.

Nonetheless, had Ole Miss not pulled the rug out from under Coach O and gave him his fourth and final year of his contract as they had promised they would do, Coach O would have been able to win with his own players and in all probability would still be the head coach at Ole Miss today.

Meanwhile, the Coach O haters love to distort Coach O's record way out of context to intentionally vilify him and demonize him because they are all Miles' butt lickers. So if you don't look closely at the situation, you will never find out the truth because the Miles' butt lickers don't want you to know the truth.

He did a great job at USC and Lsu as interim. Plus he won the bowl after being named HC and closed a really good class last year. Hired Canada who was wanted by many. So far he's erased a lot of the doubt I had. But this season is the tru test.
