Since you like to compare Coach O to Saban. Saban has 22 years as a head coach and Coach O has 4 1/2 years. In his 3rd year at LSU Saban had 5 loses. You would have tarred and feathered him and ran him out of town.

Coach O will have more wins his first three years as Head Coach at LSU than Saban had in his first three years. No doubt you genius negatigers would have been setting Saban's arse straight and probably running him off earlier. Prior to coming to LSU Saban averaged 7.8 wins a year at Michigan State over 5 years. I'm sure you would have just covered the message boards with your vitriol and lack of faith in the hire and what he would do as the tiger coach. You would have been highly critical and would have been bad mouthing him for 36 straight months. Learning to coach is a process. Coach O has 1 1/2 years as LSU coach and a total of 4 1/2 years total as the Head Coach. Give him a chance to fully recruit as a Head Coach running the show at LSU and building team chemistry over 3 years. Or continue to wave your Harry Potter wands of hate and complain when our team faces adversity. It is a process and takes a little time.

Different situation. Go look at our records from back then compared to ours from before O was head coach.

Comparing Saban THEN to Orgeron.

Ute is right. You guys would have wanted him out of town. Dead or alive.

LSU was in a great place, stacked full of blue chips, ready to compete with anyone as soon as Saban walked into the job. If you can't see the difference, you're a helpless person.

Saban won the SEC in his second year.

And prior becoming the LSU head coach how many wins per year did O have as a head coach?

I'll hang up and listen

Your criticizing a guy that was just ranked #3 in that nation. and has 4 1/2 years as a head coach. Makes no sense to me. Give him a chance.

Do you think he would have won it against his current Alabama team? No way in hell he would have.

Saban won the SEC two years after this program went 3-8.

He also took over Michigan State when they had been saddled with sanctions by the NCAA.

This has to be a troll. There's no way you actually believe you're making a profound comparison here.

Do you think he would have won the SEC his 2nd year against his current Alabama team? No way in hell he would have. That is the best team of all time.

They are criticizing a guy that was an uncontested coach of the year until 24 hrs ago.

The programs were at completely different places. Stop with this nonsense.

Uncontested? Have you paid attention to what's been happening in Lexington this season?

Orgeron and Ensminger couldn't take an offense with 1 senior (hurt) and score on the GOAT and his legion of 5*s.

Clearly LSU needs to clean house and have someone come in that can take a sophomore offensive line and run for 200+ on Alabama.
