Agreed... just look at all the ranked teams.... did all these teams get affected by any protests???? Some may have but had a coach that had the balls to overcome that and bring them together as a football team and shutout out those kind of distractions..... and if anything I’ve heard about Ryan Clark are true then he should be never allowed within 100 feet of any LSU player. Plus he needs his arse kicked. Yes I hope you are reading this Ryan.

That is an incredibly bad idea. You might as well just disband the program because 90-95% of your players will leave.

After your comments on Dak’s whole depression thing, I don’t think you’ve earned the right to say this to anyone. You are a know it all, who doesn’t know much, but has likely been told all your life that you do.
Learn how to communicate with people, it’s not a strong trait of yours. You’re kinda a frickin a-hole, truth be told.

He denied knowing about the march/protest when the team knew good and well he knew about it...that's when he "lost the team."
Saban marched with his team.

I just can't believe our players could be that soft to be mad at the coach they all say they love for being PC on national tv
Let's just say there is something to what Hannigriff is saying....how did Gundy not lose his team?

He said kind things about both Trump and JBE. He was fighting for his players to play. Talking well about both sides on a singular issue is the meaning of not being political
Surely you can pick out the part that the players didn’t take kindly to

To all the players that may be reading this board that were upset with this and allowed it to affect your play on the field. Youre losers and you should transfer.

Coach O didn’t play politics which is why the players are mad. Coach O simply wanted football so he gave positive news about the Democrat governor and Republican president in order to say football would be ok
That’s literally not being political. Then he didn’t go to the protest because that is political as well
The players are just soft as I could ever imagine if there is any truth to this. I think O has sucked this year, but if this is the crop of players he was dealing with he had no shot to have a football team worth a shite
100% truth. Orgeron is a very political guy in the social sense but not in a partisan or policy sense (outside of it affecting football). It's why he's praised JBE (and helped with the mask/COVID PR), and why he's been complimentary of the President, who is in fact a republican.
I'm critical of him but it's amazing how cowardly the fans in this thread are being, like Orgeron is supposed to be scared to do stuff to advance LSU football or honor the office of the president, just because it's a republican and the players are black. Some of yall are pussies.

You said O “shouldn’t play politics”. He didn’t. Where you are I correct is the fact you think he got the players mad because he played politics. He got the players mad BECAUSE HE DIDNT PLAY POLITICS
The players absolutely wanted him to be political.

How do you skip an event you didn’t know about? Orgeron was preparing for practice when he got a phone call that his players were not coming to practice because they were protesting.

We agree man. Maybe it’s a combo of having so much success last year they feel like they’ve accomplished enough too.
Idk, spitballing here.
But I have heard similar comments from people around this issue and it’s disheartening

How fricking pathetic. Orgeron didn't go on the campaign trail with Trump. He wasn't passing out MAGA hats and forcing the team to wear them. He was simply complementary and gracious to the President for being complementary of his team. I doubt he gave two shits about it from a political standpoint. If this was a "problem" it says FAR more about the players than the coach.
i agree
everyone knows i'm anti-O but he's basically stumped for JBE previously and is almost assuredly a democrat baw
trying to turn him into some huge racist Trumpkin is insane, and anyone who believes it is completely primed to believe bullshite

All good questions. If there is truth to this then it’s pretty absurd. Kinda shooting themselves in the foot too.

I think the problem with it boiled down to it was portrayed as something very differently than it actually was, and you had the loudest people in the room like Ryan Clark making Orgeron look bad. Most college kids are going to see what's plastered on their twitter feeds and not pay as much attention to what was actually said and look much further into it. That's how the Orgeron comments about Trump came to be cast in such a negative light. And we saw how they were received by players in that age group based on some tweets by guys like Chaisson. It was completely unfair to Orgeron, but it is what it is, and that's kind of where we are as a society now. It matters very little the context of comments, but more so how they are presented on social media and the likes. We saw the same type thing with Gundy wearing a t-shirt on a fishing trip with his sons. You pretty much have to either bend the knee, or you're not doing what you're supposed to do.

You don’t know what the players were/ are thinking dipshit.

Idk that I’d call O a Democrat. But he makes a damn good Louisiana sleeze when it comes to networking. It could be anyone in JBE’s seat and O would say good things about them.
But totally agree that painting O in this light is pure lunacy.

I am completely fine with it and will support an LSU team with opposite politics as me. I know that’s likely the case and has never bothered me
I will not support a team of tyrants that try and force their coach to interject himself into their political beliefs
The coaches job is to stay out of politics and to let the players voice their message. Which is exactly what O did.
