Is Orgeron whacking people in the knee/ankle/shoulder as they exit the locker room?

The amount of drop outs and players that quit since 2019 is astounding. When the going gets tough the tough get... on never mind, they just opt out.

People have called kids soft since WWII ended. I don't think it's a ubiquitous problem with the entire generation. I think it's a specific culture issue right now at LSU. Attitude reflects leadership

Orgeron softened the team with his "lighter" practices and people are surprised that it eventually backfired? Really?

But which is it, lighter practices or grueling practices? We’re hearing both.

Or was it actually light practice before the losses started piling up, then overboard practices complete with pix of Orgeron losing his mind screaming?

Neither, its kids quitting and "opting out" and they are most likely transferring

I remember my senior year in h.s. and we got a new coach who set us up on grueling physical practices. By the third to last game we were down to converting a safety to rb as our three rb's were out with serious injuries all incurred during practice. One had a broken leg and another got his back fricked up. The third was so bruised up that he could not lift his arms up.

It does happen.

At this level, every player is hurt by this time in the season. Some injuries may even heal better with surgery. When your team is winning, you fight through those injuries. When your team is a dumpster fire and an embarrassment, it makes it really easy to make other decisions.
