Y’all are so dumb for playing this angle



Ed's not on the hot seat by any means, but he lost his insurance policy when Joe was fired. Joe Alleva's future was linked directly to Orgeron's success so he was going to give him a longer leash.

Outside of Alleva's office, the Ed Orgeron hire was widely considered absolute garbage for a program like LSU's. It was a national joke and Woodward definitely would not have made that choice.

That being said, we are primed for a great year and if Orgeron delivers he'll prove everyone wrong and Joe Alleva right. I hope that happens.

Orgeron is probably stoked to have a boss that will give him all the resources he ever wanted, instead of being a bean counter who micromanages.

The fallacy of this latest rant narrative that Orgeron now has a shorter leash implies that it was ever long in the first place and that Alleva was holding it. Pretty obvious that Joe had been rubbing influential people the wrong way. If Orgeron flopped, then it wouldn't have been Alleva's decision, they would both have been fired. Nothing has changed for Ed with regards to his standing, win or he's out.

Ed's leash will certainly be shorter with Woodward but I agree that he's not even close to being on the hot seat. If he went 7-5 or 8-4 this year maybe it would get a little warm.

I dont thin kit proves Joe Alleva right at all. It's not like Alleva ever wanted to hire O, he just kind of failed his way into it.
