Can’t do worse than Bo. I just hope Raymond is ok with it.

If he fields an elite D next year, this board will claim anyone could do it with this roster.

One can always count on the vocal minority of Tiger fans to be never satisfied and inconsistent in their criticisms.

He sounds like a wonderful young up-and-coming coach who hopefully can recruit elite talent and relate well to the young men he's training.

Nothing points to this being a homerun/LSU caliber hire. Not hating on the guy, but yikes

I’m in. I’m gonna support the decision and ride with it. There are positives there, and it can turn out to be in LSUs greatest interest.

Orgeron is a good recruiter. Hope this hire works out for him.

LSU spent 4M buyout for this.

Orgeron, tell me you quit without telling me you quit.

Staff needed to get younger and hungrier. O certainly accomplished those two things with his coordinator picks.

If Jones can get the defense to buy in, he’ll be better than Pelini.

I’m so sick of letting this retard repeatedly make bad hires and run this program into the ground. This is going to be, yet again, a bad hire.

Aranda probably recommended this guy to punk Coach O for throwing shade at him last year when he left

So I have serious questions as to why this guy never got consideration for DC if he was so good and just flip flopped around with his secondary being absolute shite. There's nothing to like about this hire and nothing suggests he's good. This makes no sense when you have a lot of good young DCs in college who have called it at much higher level than this guy. LSU must've struck out of everyone they talked to for them to go down to get this guy. He has to be a bottom of the list guy. They better not paying this dude Pellini's money otherwise I'll flip. For that money you couldn't get someone better?

I know the guy. Lets just say he wouldnt be coaching in the NFL if he were a plug. Give him a chance. He is young and I think the players will get behind him. I also was a Corey Raymond fan, but he must not want the position. Im sure if he did Orgeron would have asked him. Im onboard for Jones. See what he can do.

While this is disappointing honestly this guy could be really good. I think it's a bit of a wildcard based on what we know.

The fact is 2 extraordinary candidates turned LSU down.
