Griswold said he's behind O and that he seems to have a good cast around him.

Sounds like he's just waiting to see, like most of us.

Now you skew the numbers by including the record setting year with Mett/Landry/OBJ as well as having a mediocre defense forcing us to run up more points than we usually need to win.


Holy shite, that's not skewing the number at all... those numbers happened.

2011 no one I knew was pumped. Dickhead was in trouble with the law right before Oregon game. I had free tickets to the game free trip no one thought it worth it to go see LSU get destroyed


What are you talking about? We started out #4 in the nation. That team was stacked and everyone knew it.

The worst part is that the same coonasses who insisted we hire O will make excuse after excuse for him. Nothing will ever be his fault. It will be the refs, players, fans, etc. It will be a lot like Miles excuse making, only worse, because "he talk like us."

I can see the recruiting getting worse and worse until we are fully Archer-ized. A lot of people don't believe it because we've had it good for so long, but no matter who LSU gets, they're going to be coached by O/ Aranda will eventually move on because that's what young, good coaches to in any program, and then we'll see how mediocre O really is.

With perhaps a side order of NCAA sanctions.
What's really ironic is that the O haters accuse anyone who says anything positive of being delusional ideologues and completely unbalanced, and yet it seems that the O haters are the only ones on here confidently making bold predictions of impending doom. Then they turn around and ridicule us for being cautiously optimistic saying that we've lowered our expectations because we're so in the tank for O.

Too freakin' funny!

By the way, I wasn't thrilled with the O hire, but I have to admit, so far he's made some pretty good moves. He's earned the benefit of my doubt for now, not that he or anyone else give a damn.

Same. I've never been so pissed about a sport in my life. After the anger left, the apathy set it a couple days later.

Ok we have a little disconnect. What I'm saying is we have an example of someone admittingly hoping we lose under the Miles regime so why is it impossible to you for the O haters to do the same?

wrong. Sometimes short term pain must be endured for the long term betterment of the program.
Many "Simpletons" have their heads buried in the sand and can't see the trees because of the forest.

LM had to go at any cost and that Auburn loss was crucial in making it so.

BTW, we would have beaten Wisconsin and Auburn if Etling starts both games..........

bullshite. Broski said in his post that the offense under Cameron averaged 15.3 points per game against Bama and 27.3 points per game against Florida.

That's exactly what the LSU offense averaged against those two teams while Cameron was the Offensive Coordinator.

Name the 6 posters in this thread hoping LSU loses because of Orgeron. Man up and put a name to these 6 (or more) mysterious posters that you're claiming want LSU to lose.

I've only seen 2 posters in this thread that have admitted that they rooted for LSU to lose, higgins and atitiger, and Orgerons name was never mentioned in either one of their posts. They wanted LSU to lose because of Miles.

It's really funny how some of you are getting so worked up about people questioning the hiring of Orgeron after the way you people have shite all over Miles over the years.

After posting this I noticed the post from semjase. Perhaps it sounds like he may have rooted for LSU to lose also.

Well, Etling was injured when the Wisconsin game was played, and he did start the Auburn game.

And to be honest, if Etling had been able to play the Wisconsin game and Miles would have started him over Harris, this site would have had a melt down over Miles NOT starting a QB that had a couple years in the program and had started every game the previous season.

Along with the fact that so many posters on here said, time and time again, that Etling wasn't any good. After all he couldn't hold on the starting QB job at lowly Purdue, and he would never make it against SEC defenses.

Gotta love the wisdom of the rant.

1/6 is probably me, because he's hinted at some of the stuff I said.

What you guys are failing to mention is that Ensmingers numbers were against SEC and ranked opponents only save 1 game and Cams were against 5 years of rent a wins. Ensminger never had the chance to butter his stats with lay up wins.


So Cameron didn't coach against SEC teams 8 times a year, plus bowl games and kickoff classics? And Ensminger couldn't butter up his stats? Lol. Go look at the stats of the defenses he faced, minus Bama. I'll even let you keep UF to butter up his stats.....

So you're calling a 15-11 SEC record (10-10 against the West), with NFL draft picks all over the roster, "successful?"


Who in the SEC was more "successful" over that period of time?

And what was best for LSU football was to replace Les with a DL coach who fricked up so badly at Mississippi that NO other school in all of college football would even offer him a DC job?

There is nothing in O's history which would lead anyone with an IQ over 75 to think he can come close to producing an average of ten wins a year, three west titles, two SEC titles, top four nationally in wins, two NCGs, and a NC. That's is what is needed to get better.

Jimbo was the answer but Alleva feed LSU fan a pile of shite as to why we couldn't get him and some swallowed it hook, line, and sinker.

No way to know what will happen of course. I am optimistic that the offense will be able to score on 'Bama. I have had no real expectations since 1/9 either. That may be about to change.

It's funny cause 95% of this board is already making excuses for Coach O to frick this up. 9-3 would have been time to fire the coach the last ten years...now it's expected.


Unfortunately yes. We used to have a program that would be underachieving if it went 9-3. After a few years of decline, we have one that would be doing well if it went 9-3. Some people wanted to stop the decline before it got to this point.

fricking joke this fanbase is. A fricking joke


I'm afraid you and the others who insisted on keeping Miles until it was too late turned out to be the jokes. Now we have years of rebuilding to do that might have been avoided, or at least shortened, if not for you jokes out there the last few years who thought it was still 2007.
