Do you feel O did a bad job cause I don’t. I was pissed and ready to fire his arse last year for lying about not getting into calling plays on offense and then he did it. I picked LSU to go 6-6 this 7-5 at best. He exceeded my andmany many others expectations this year and without the rape from the refs at the A&M game we should be 10-2. We also had an opportunity to win the Florida game and no doubt about it if the game was played here or a neutral site we would have won that game. We have issues on the offensive line but this was les miles recruits not O’s. Give him a chance. Now old joe fire his arse.

I dont know when the proper time is because I dont know when his contract is up. I am not really advocating for extension or termination. I just get frustrated when I see posts from people who do not understand the whole program picture. You cant just leave a coach hanging out on the vine like that and expect the program to get any better.
Not extending a coaches contract at the proper time is a message for him to move on and it usually is done in private and well in advance of the critical time so as not to damage the continuity of the program.

So you keep saying “proper time” and talking about people not seeing the big picture, but admittedly don’t know anything about his contract status?

Is it possible that some people know how many years he has remaining, understand the potential recruiting impact, and still don’t think it is necessary or warranted at this time?

As he readily admits that he wanted Miles to stop getting paid by lsu. Ben is clearly a sick and despicable person.



Its amazing how many times HE shits on his own stances.


He is a rare bread of poster that in time will own himself in a debate.

I'm all for adding 2 years at $4 to $4.5 mill per, to his current contract.


What has ed orgeron done to warrant a million dollar wage?

He was hired at 3.5 million because no one wanted him to be their coordinator, let alone their HC.

Did you see O on the sidelines during OT? He didnt even have a damn head set on. He was basically a 3.5 million dollar cheerleader

Top of what? We finished 3rd in the west. If this is the top WHY WAS MILES FIRED?

toward the top in recruiting which indicates we will keep the horses to run with the programs at the top.


Last year we had 52 4 and 5 star players. Troy had zero, miss st had 14. How did O do with all those horses?

Look bigger picture. You missed my point that I am not advocating extension or firing. But if you want to make the no extension argument today then you are on the fire him side of the arguement. So you have taken the position of firing a guy that has his team in the CFP Top Ten with a chance to make it top 8 maybe. Who do you think wants to apply for a position with an employment history like that?

There are only nine guys in CFP who are in a better postion in the CFP right now and probably all of them are untouchable except the UCF guy...

So to a prospective HC that is outside looking in the picture they see is a position that cant have success unless they win a NC every year or beat Saban every year...

Hey, I think the offense sucked balls this year too but given the level of achievement this team has had we are in a bad negotiating position. You can throw all the team performance numbers you want out there but I will throw one out that I bet you have not looked at. Team Attendence. LSU was #2 in paid attendence this season second only to Bama by about 700 tix per game. We were ahead of aTm that has a stadium bigger than TS and BDS... This number is published in the SEC Cumulative Season stats every week. So we can squeal all we want but nobody is going to listen when the safe is full of money...

LSU was actually #1 in Total Attendence in home and away games because our ATT Stadium game was bigger than Bama's Mercedes Benz Stadium game.

Miles landed a #7 class as a lame duck that was twisting in the wind a couple months before signing day.

nobody on the planet thought he had any long term stability left at LSU.

so if he can do it, then why does master recruiter Ed O need a long term extension to recruit?


Deserves to be repeated.

And we didnt get Herman or Jimbo or any other big fish. We got the Shrimp Boat Captain that incidently had a better season than both of them.

So since those 2 coaches( that went to worse situations but jimbo just finished above us in the sec and beat your deity with less talent and has a higher recruiting class) didnt take the lsu job, it means no one else would take the job if we didnt extend O and he decided to leave?

holy shite

Our clown ad offered the two most obvious candidates and then got his feeling hurt and ran to O with tears in his eyes. You have no idea who wouldve taken the job. Alleva cried and settled on an unqualified HC.

You people have now finally crossed the brink of insanity and fallen into the abyss. The Administration doesn't give a frick what you think about a contract extension for CEO or how much he is paid, nor should they. If you think otherwise, call Aleva the next time you're making a decision about your business (for any of you old enough to have one), and ask him what he thinks. The sense of entitlement you have is staggering. Get over yourselves.

This is false. You’re just creating a straw man.
