Fuk Hanny. He is a dumbass. LSU operates LSU and doesn't and shouldn't use Alabama as a single decision point on how to run our Athletic Department or compensate our coaches.

WTF would some of you do? Not give this coaching staff raises or extensions because of Alabama? LSU was predicted to be a bottom feeder in the SEC but ended up 10-3, a no. 7 ranking, and a winner of the Fiesta Bowl.

Do some you not realize just what Orgeron inherited? He had NO QB ready to compete at the SEC level and went out and found Joe Burrow just 6 weeks before playing a top 10 at the time Miami.

LSU needed a kicker so he went and got Cole Tracy.

LSU needed help on the DL so he went and got Fehoko.

LSU winning 10 games (& very well could have been 11 or 12) was a hell of an achievement.

LSU had 2 QBs who transferred out and 1 wasn't even good enough to start at a JUCO. We had 2 serviceable RBs but no Guice, Fournette, or Jeremy Hill.

Then there was the OL which started a different starting lineup for the 1st 5 or 6 weeks of the season.

LSU had some huge gaping holes that needed filling and this staff did a damn good job.

What should UGA do with Kirby Smart? He has lost to Bama in the NC and SEC Championship Game in the last 2 seasons and got blown out by LSU. I guess UGA should forget everything Kirby Smart accomplished and say no to any contract extensions or raises?

You don't run an athletic department based on obsession with 1 team. LSU is going to get where we want to be but LSU was not as strong as some of you apparently realize.

If you add a few more paragraphs you may break the all time record for incorrect statements passed off as facts in a single post.

Go for it!

I don't have major complaints about O other than E as OC and maybe keeping Giles as PR. Neither made any sense whatsoever.

But making hollow excuses does nothing for me. If it was only Bama we were losing to (and being competitive) since Ed became HC, you might have an argument. But it's not just them we're losing to. IOW, what O is doing/accomplishing invites scrutiny.

Take for example QB. He 'inherited' Etling, Harris, and McMillan (and Narcisse and Brennan as recruits) in '16. But if you're going to assert that "had NO QB ready to compete at the SEC level," then I would point out Etling was certainly ready in '16 and '17 AND maybe O should've exercised some forethought w.r.t. Brennan in '17. That was Canada's vision. But O torpedoed that.

And much of this is compounded by O's vacillating about offense style, i.e., prefer a spread, a pro.
