Firing him early accomplishes nothing other than the creation of chaos.

Give him a chance to try to turn it around. If the team beats Alabama and A and M, then maybe he needs to stay.

You must admit that there have been some matters outside his control: injuries (including Brennan's), COVID, fans destroying team morale with their constant negativity, etc.

I'm not a Coach O apologist, but there isn't anything a new coach can do midseason either.

Man if you can’t see this for the toxic dumpster fire that it is, idk what to tell ya.

It should not be so easy to turn in a losing season at a program that hasn’t seen one in decades.

Read between the lines the last couple off-seasons. Read between the lines on Canada... Aranda... Pelini... player turnover... Max Johnson at pressers... line recruiting... context of O’s history at Ole Miss... off-the-field rumors & headlines dating back to 2019...

What you’re seeing on the field is the tip of the iceberg.

OK, lets make that the standard. If they beat A&M and Alabama, he gets to stay. Zero chance that happens. ULM is looking iffy right now.

You would have been more correct if you had said the opposite.

I actually agree

Nah

I mean, sure but injuries aren’t the biggest issue on the us squad

COVID,


Everyone dealt with this. LSU isn’t special.

Has literally nothing to do with the team. None.

Idc if he beats Bama and aTm by 50 pts. His arse has to go. It’s clear as can be he doesn’t know what he’s doing and caught lightning in a bottle with burrow and Brady. Not to even mention his embarrassing off the field antics.

ETA:

It’s also really irritating when fans like you act like we’re the only program in the country that have had to deal with injuries and COVID. Just stop with that bull shite excuse please.

Have you not been following LSU football? It’s more than just game results at this point.

Guess what? He will not get fired mid season. He has all the opportunity he needs. It’s a moot point.
4-8 is likely. 8 wins was the expected bench mark. After this weekends loss, he would have to run the table to get there...

So much negativity heading in to 2020.

If only we were so negative and Covid effected every other team.

Maybe if the fans weren’t so negative he would have Kept Bo and Ensminger and Linehan and they clearly just needed another season.

No, he doesnt. We should do what is best for LSU. What is best for LSU is to get rid of a lame duck coach. To 'turn it around' he would need to run the table. He aint doing that, or anything close to that.

You are correct, but the sooner we get changes in the building the better off we are.
