re: Good grief give the coaches a chance!!!!!

U dumb dick

I'm not, in any way, equating Orgeron to Saban. BUT to put things in perspective, Saban did lose to ULM in his first year at Bama.

Then why bring it up. Saban had a natty to back him up. O has a 3-21 record in the sec. This is why people are nervous.

Anything less than a new year 6 bowl is a failure. That bar was set whenever miles was fired. The fact that 0 is in over his head and can't obtain that doesn't change the goal, just makes it easier to get rid of him quickly

You’ll get downvoted by the Orgeron idiots, but go look at some of their post histories from 6 months ago and I bet most were predicting 10-2 with a NY6 bowl. The standards will keep getting lower until Orgeron can finally limp over them.

So you've seen improvement In the year O has been here?

LSU hasn't had to "rebuild" in a decade and a half, but hey, let's fire our coach and hire a good old boy and sit back and have a beer since Saban can't be beaten.

No I'm with you.. count me in the camp of those who are nervous. I was vehemently against hiring Orgeron and I think it was a cheap and lazy hire. But what can we do other than give him a chance? We don't have any choice. With a $12 million buyout he ain't going anywhere anytime soon. We're all mad about it- but there's nothing that we can do about it anytime soon. We just have to hope he doesn't frick us up too bad before he is gone.

The other options would have cost a lot more (Herman or Fisher) and I'm not sure they would be doing so much better now with their records currently.

---

I would be okay paying more for Herman and Fisher and not having the highest paid coordinators.. because Herman and Fisher both know what the hell they're doing and aren't coordinator-dependent. Orgeron does not. And even IF the season was going the way it is now with Herman and Fisher, I would still not be quite as frantic. Fisher is 0-2 at FSU this year and I don't think they're calling for his head.. because he's proven that he knows what he's doing. Orgeron hasn't proved anything other than that he's a fricking idiot.

That said, regardless of what we hear about the Herman situation, if he or Jimbo wanted to be the coach at LSU, they would be. So we're stuck with Orgeron.

When defense plays good all the credit goes to Aranda but when they play bad Orgeron gets all the blame.

That is literally the nature of being a head coach. It looks like Orgeron hadn't considered the possibility that the team might not be very good and he'd have to answer for it. So now he gets all steamed and pissy in his pressers when he has to answer legitimate questions about why the team isn't very good.

Blame alleva. The hire was made.. quit hanging your hat on what O did a decade ago. Coaches have struggled at their first stop before. It's not his fault the oline is playing so bad and the offense isn't moving the ball well. Kirby was considered a Saban minion and many people laughed at the hire. Especially when they lost 5 or 6 games in his first year. You can't judge a coach by his first few games in his first season. That's ridiculous and ignorant. Bad hire sure. O's 2nd chance probably should have been a FCS program but it wasn't. He got the job and deserves a fair shot. It may be the worst hire ever Idk but unless he goes winless in the sec or something u can't fire him. That would
Be horrible for the Lsu brand. No coach worth a damn would come here. Who would want to coach somewhere, move his family, assistants etc. that will fire him if he had a bad month or two?? If he bombs badly and alleva is fired that's the only way i see a HC change happening that wouldn't look so bad. Untill then I support O and these tigers!! Btho Troy and steal a win out of the swamp it will look better around here
