I support him. I'm cautiously optimistic and like the positive trend of the program as of late. There is no one I've seen on here crowing about how great O is. Most of us hope that he can become great and like the trend.

Yep I support him as a head coach. For a first year coach I will take it. Unlike some I will not blame it on our schedule or shout about a Troy lost. I just hope we beat the shite out of ND and finish strong in recruiting. Let's enjoy the offseason and save the verbally assaulting for next football season. Remember we all love our LSU TIGERS when it is all said an done.

miles lost to teams he shouldnt have brother. but saban loses to an inferior team every year too.

ive literally posted this a dozen times.
that doesnt just erase his career and the frick ups he has had this year.
ive repeatedly said if we win this bowl game the season was decent.
the difference is people like you said that the only thing holding lsu back from winning titles was miles and now that he is gone you want to lower that bar of what a good season is.
no one was talking about any kind of rebuild until we started losing.
o sold himself on not having to rebuild. he publicly stated that this was a playoff team before the season.

Let's break it down using something from the post itself...

quote:

This was a very indifferent year.


We went through all of that for an "indifferent year," to hire a coach without proven success, who didn't bring proven success and merely met the exact metric of the coach we fired. He didn't prove he would fail miserably, nor did he prove he could compete consistently. And there's nothing to look forward to next year because it was a very "indifferent" year. Most people are already under the impression that we can't compete for the SEC next year for a variety of reasons....which was the same feeling many had with Miles (and it was a valid feeling).

So we made a coaching change that actually changed nothing in terms of results or potential. Hence, indifference.

so what youre saying is you dont care if LSU's next head coach is 45-4 or 4-45? lets disregard the only time O was allowed to make long term decisions at a program? of course you do so you can look at the troy loss and act like thats not something O has repeatedly done as a head coach.
quote:

Just please beat notre dame so I don't have to listen to your. whiny asses the whole offseason 


so we are whiny asses because we arent sure about a lsu hc that has 1 season with more than 2 conf wins?
what would you call the lsu fans that constantly shite on a lsu head that actually had proven he could run a successful program at 2 programs?


why does it bother you so much when people bring up actual facts about O but its was perfectly fine to make persona attacks against the last coach? you dont see the hypocrisy in that?
that would be like me dismissing O's accomplishments.


but yes i will be cheering my arse off for a notre dame win. beating notre dame is up there with beating bama to me because i work with multiple ND alumni.

Like Wisky in 2016, right? Yep. Should have won that game. But where did Wisky finish the season in their conference? Miles won games ugly and that’s what pissed people like me off.

I wanted Miles fires since 2008, make no mistake about how I felt about him. But if you’re going to fire him, don’t settle.
He could have easily delivered 11 wins this season with how shitty of a conference we are. And lost to Bama by 2 TDs. nobody predicted how pathetic the conference would have been this year.

It's the American culture of the 21st century, fostered by a media that's more about generating viewership with publicizing extreme viewpoints than about getting the whole story out there, and by those who have grown up in the Twitter era, where everything you know about any issue, however nuanced, must be capable of being expressed in 140 characters.

Name the posters that belong to the never O crowd.

I can't name one. There are plenty that have a wait and see attitude.

I can’t see how anybody can’t get behind O right now with how you turn the team around at the beginning of the year and how turned around Both lines In one year when people thought we were screwed for at least a few years. Writings on the wall we’re coming
. I was against the hire because there was little to no coaching search done. But I support him 100%. But let’s be fair. If your going to give him credit for turning the lines around and turning the team around after MSU and Troy. You must all acknowledge that it was his own mess that he turned around.

He needs to prove hes completely incompetent before we heat up the chair and break out the pitchforks. Y'all got the cart way out in front of the horse.

What about the Troy bed shitting that happened two months ago? What about the historic Mississippi State loss that went down just in September or ANOTHER loss to Alabama? Is that ok to worry about?

Oh hell, that's all in the past. We're supposed to forget all about that. Haven't you heard?

There was a post just a few days ago where folks where crying and complaining that o's been treated badly and that all the bad things that happened in September should be forgotten and forgiven. Ancient history so to speak.

Don't bring up past failures, o doesn't deserve all the criticism. Just feel good about what lies ahead.

Keep a tight grip on some of the previous coach's failures though.

the same posters that get upset when you mention troy are the same posters that brought up 1/9/12 for years.

if etling could hit half of the long balls that were open

This. This is the kind of stuff I’m tired of right here. Calling plays that we all know our QB can’t make is not successful offense. Etling has strengths. He has weaknesses. The long ball is his most glaring weakness. So calling plays that play right into his weakness is all of a sudden good offense? Yes we had more first downs and out gained them, but if your game plan doesn’t give you the opportunity to finish those drives and put up points, then it was not a successful game plan. The play calling during the Bama game was outright foolish. Blame Canada, blame O, I don’t care, but don’t tell me we had a good offense that game.

quote:

You are probably one of the people that claim Lsu had no offense against Florida last year because 10 points.

That UF game was a clusterfrick on both sides of the ball and how he got hired after that performance is beyond me.
