re: I was pro Ed until UCLA

I’m actually surprised there isnt even more of an uproar over O’s incompetence.

In 2016, Br with through historic flooding, many people lost everything—homes, businesses, etc. Yet thousands of people made the trip to Wisconsin, hopeful that Miles would turn it around. Miles did the opposite, running the same shite after narrowly escaping with his job.

2021 LA gets rocked by Ida, and after an offseason of promises and hype—much of which came from inside the program, LSU looked as bad as ever in front of thousands of fans who travelled across the country to support the team.

Hopefully, like in 2016, the powers that be immediately started planning the coach’s removal.

The only thing I see helping O keep his job through the end of the season is the potential for the buyout to go down based on the time of firing, and the school looking to fire him for cause (or allege cause) to negotiate a lesser settlement—its hard to posture and say that O is getting fired for all off the field stuff when he’s fired early in the season after starting 2-3.

I was anti-O but gave the man credit in 2019.

He lost me again by replacing Brady and Aranda - two young geniuses with a couple irrelevant, washed up has beens in Linehan and Petrino.

Showed that he'd learned exactly nothing from his previous trainwreck hires.

I see a lot of threads from the “so called” Die hard O homers getting upset over other posters being negative about O, Just to be clear I was all for giving that man another chance, even after that dog shite 5-5 season last year. The UCLA game felt like someone spit in my face after all off-season preaching coming from that loudmouth blowhard. Now I want nothing more than his arse gone and a real coach hired.

My question is when was your moment you had seen or heard enough out of big mouth bullshite Artist Ed and decided you wanted to change.

I also find it amusing how anybody could still be supporting this train wreak. Why?

First off, no one is supporting how the team is playing, right now. Blowhards like yourself read posts and can't comprehend that fact, so you make up shite about people being "O homers"

Last year was a down year, but we could've very easily went 6-4, and if the normal out of conference cupcakes were added back in, that could have easily been a 9-3 season, even with all the struggles. That being said, yes the team vastly under performed, even given the known struggles. Fast forward to this year and the UCLA game was definitely a punch in the gut, but anyone that follows this team shouldn't have been shocked. That's exactly what happened, though and the meltdowns are hilarious. A bunch of wounded children lashing out. I'm fairly certain that EVERYONE is on board with Orgeron being replaced, if the team fails. That should be the end of story, but it's not. The negativity against the team is just flat out embarrassing. Sure, O may not be good for the team anymore, but what is the point in the repeated bullshite posts over and over about O's personal life, his family, talking about trying to get a bad reaction from him on the street, and 1,000 asinine threads that have absolutely nothing to do with the team itself. Everyone wants to get up on a soapbox and declare the same crap over and over, so they can be "right." It's pathetic, really. But do continue to lump anyone not going along with the trash anything LSU and O campaign in a group of "O homers" if it makes you feel better.

Like you, I was willing to write off 2020 and move on....until UCLA.

---

That’s the point I think most will agree on and point to UCLA being the turning point.

2020 didn’t really count, but it still happened. You turn it around this year and it can be forgotten, you give us the same product for Game 1 of 2021 and it’s a trend.

He doesn’t have a focused team. It’s pretty easy to see. Talent is there but there is no edge.

I jumped off the train after last year and the whole public poon chasing thing.

I'm not quite done with him yet, after 10/2 I'll form a better opinion. I'll give the coordinators time to figure things out. We still are not sure on how good UCLA is, they play #19 ASU on 10/2 and then Oregon on 10/23.

---

That shouldn't really matter. I was flipping between that game and UGA-Clemson, and the difference was night and day. UCLA is not an elite team and honestly I wouldn't have believed you if you told me that LSU is only marginally less talented than Clemson. Everything was slower. UCLA may be a top 25 team, but they're not better than that which makes the performance unacceptable unless you're okay with being an 8-4 team despite recruiting second best in the division and having the second highest paid coach in the country.

I was pro O until the UCLA game as you were and your thought sum up mine. The only difference I'd say is that I leave the door open for O to earn back my support. It seems extremely unlikely (most likely impossible) at this point but if somehow they pull it together and finish the year 9-3, I'd be willing to give him one more to prove he can be an elite coach.

---

This. UCLA was just ugly all the way around.

Same position here.

Not a pumper at all but also recognize some people, especially here, always hated O and always will and even the glory of 2019 only temporarily shut them up.

And now many of those talk of character assassination and even physical assault against him. Some sick people out there.

Honest question, if UCLA turns out to be a top 15 team does that make the performance LSU gave acceptable?

I guess it comes down to expectations. If you are ok with LSU getting dominated by the #15 team in the nation, I guess it makes it somewhat better. I hope for more each season.
