re: Does not wanting CEO as the head coach make me a bad LSU fan?

So your argument for hiring him is that he isn't les miles?

You realize every candidate will have that quality right?

Hey I don't have a dog in this fight. I come here for entertainment, but lately this place is absolutely hateful. At least let the guy lose a game before you crucify him.

Herman's record is not against opponents the caliber of those Orgeron faced in any of his head coaching jobs.

He admitted that he made mistakes. Are you employed? If so how long in your profession? Are you not better now than when you started?

You seem in love with Herman. How many top level teams has he beaten? You are making an uneven comparison. You are not even pretending to have an open mind.

He has more ranked wins than Coach O has in 1/4th the amount of time as a HC. Do YOU even know who he's beaten compared to Coach O's current wins as a HC?

is a really good coach.

I agree he's a great DLine coach. Hope we can keep him in that position

A proven motivator

Over short periods of time, yes proven. Has he shown the ability to sustain that anywhere?

And recruiter

We won't have a better recruiting staff than we've had the past couple years, where has it gotten us? We need a player developer and a guy that can build a game plan against the best of the best

A much better coach than miles ever was

Based on your comments in this thread and in previous ones you've been in, it's safe to say you think Miles is an awful awful coach

So is that our bar? Just being better than Miles which you say was an awful football coach? LSU is a top 5-10 job, our standards should be higher.

If you are ranked in the top 10 and lose to a service academy, you're disqualified. That's how stupid your coach O ole miss argument is fwiw.

You want to compare a coach that has won a BCS bowl and only lost 2 games as a head coach to a guy who has 3 straight losing seasons and started off a season 0-8?

This has to be a troll. I've seen you post before, you aren't this stupid.

Make up your damn mind. Just a minute ago you were smashing Orgeron for his past failures. Now you change the dynamic to recently. If you you use that as the basis to prove your point, then, how many top teams did Herman beat years ago?

You won't even give Orgeron a chance. Since all of you want him shite canned the day the season ends, why is he busting his arse to put a good product on the field? "Thanks for the victories, Ed. Now get your happy arse put of here so we can hire the latest pretty face."

Ok I'm done. This isn't entertaining. You people are incapable of carrying on a reasoned conversation.

So if O takes a 2 loss LSU team with no offensive production and still manages to coach them up to an SEC championship, then he is still unproven?

But if Herman takes his highest ranked team ever, loses to Navy along the way, and makes it to a decent bowl, he's proven? Right, that makes perfect sense.

Also, O is LSU's current recruiting coordinator, so you can't make the argument that he's not a proven recruiter either.

More like "thanks for doing what you do best. Sorry you aren't qualified for this job, but we'd love to keep you as assistant HC and recruiting coordinator, and of course you are free to pursue other head coaching opportunities to prove us wrong"

That's one hell of a fallacy


You're comparing an accomplish that hasn't been made yet versus one aspect of Hermans career

Let's just ignore that frickin BCS bowl he just won at a mid major. The navy loss just erases that.
