It’s been discussed. O sucks.


And there it is.


If for some crazy reason O has a great season, I can see all of you O haters saying "yeah but there's no way he can back it up with another great season because he sucks".

Honestly...doesn't this say it all?

see all of you O haters 

The "O hater" comment baffles me so much. It vexes me. I'm terribly vexed. Why wouldn't all LSU fans absolutely LOVE for a Cajun to be a successful LSU head coach? That doesn't even compute to me.

It would be totally rational to question O for one more season with a successful season in 2018. He has never proven sustained success, so it's perfectly fine to question whether or not he could keep it going, especially if we have some coaching losses - Aranda mostly. Fluke's can and do happen, but it would be important to at least give credit where credit is due, at the same time.

Because one great season should also not equal a 7 year extension or some such nonsense that O fans will be campaigning for. There are extremes on both sides.

This is all some of you have to hang on to, fantasies.

You just fantasize how funny it'd be if O turned out to be great and we were wrong.

Just put your name to it if you believe in him and you think he's going to have a great season. Otherwise these fantasies are pointless and best left in your head.

I find it telling that even his strongest proponents won't predict for him to have a great season.

History and reality both suggest that if O has a great season it's primarily due to "some crazy reason" and not because he's a great head coach. I'll give Orgeron credit for having a great season when or if he ever achieves one.

The deck has always been stacked against O when it comes to him successfully running LSU's program. The terrible odds have nothing to do with the "O Haters" and rabid fans, but everything to do with O lacking the required skill sets for quality head coaching.

This is not a knock or personal attack on him in anyway. Like I've said before... "You can't train a mule to be a race horse"
