He was very disrespectful toward LSU and Coach O and deserves to be called out for his juvenile tweet. Typical “journalist” these days, I guess. Classless


My point exactly. This tweet was over-the-top disrespectful.

At the time, it was a great hire


No it wasn't. It was a bad hire through the 2017 season, to his credit Ed Ogeron adapted after that first season, signed a generational QB and eventually brought in Joe Brady to overall the offense, none of that was apparent in Nov 2016.

I thought it was a horrific hire and it was on paper. I was very bitter about it and gave up my season tickets because I was certain it was a colossal blunder. Organizations that are in the top 10% of their field typically don’t hire people that have failed miserably and hope they learned from their mistakes. I’m very glad I was wrong and O has my full support now because I support LSU and anyone that is helping make it successful. If he would be sucking, I’d have my pitchfork out ready to strike. He has proven to me that he has was it takes to keep LSU near the top.


I thought his record as an interim at USC was cause for optimism though. That was a good but not great USC team talent wise that had their coach left at an airport in the middle of the season. He did a good job in less than ideal circumstances there.

Part of the reason i was skeptical was because if this. He had a nice win over Stanford but also lost to ND and UCLA, their 2 biggest rivals then here he lost to Bama (OK, that was understandable) but also to Florida, every other game were games he was supposed to win. I wasn't sure if he was capable of getting over that hump and doing better than 9-3/10-2 type season like 2018.

Same here honestly. I thought it was a better hire than some did, but I'd be lying if I told you I thought national titles were in the near future.

Great link- thanks.

Newsflash more people thought the Orgeron hire wasn’t going to work than did
It worked because of Brady and Burrow. Let's see if he can keep it going at the same level without them.....

This is high school girl level nonsense. You went 3 years back on some guy’s twitter history? LSU just had a once in a lifetime season and this guy is clearly wrong. That should be enough.
