re: One of the best descriptions about how the Orgeron hiring process went down.

quote:

---

But second, and perhaps more important, LSU made this decision when it didn’t need to. After the Herman humiliation, a competent athletics director would have slept it off, taken the emotion out of it, called a search firm the next morning and gotten back to work on a list of the best candidates. Orgeron was always going to be there for LSU, whether the search took another week or another month. Nobody else was going to hire him to be a head coach. He could have been the fallback option to the fallback option.
