define “full retard”


I would define full retard starting with 1/9 and then continually playing down to the level of competition, floundering around on offense, always losing a few games we should have won, recruiting great talent only to squander/mismanage it in some way, whiffing on almost every QB except the one that fell in his lap (Mett), and developing a stubborn streak that defies logic. Throw in some bizarre behavior and unintelligible sound bites for good measure.
These would be a few of my favorite things.

For the record, this sounds EXACTLY like the guy we replaced him with

Almost a perfect summary, but:

starting with 1/9

floundering around on offense


This started after the 2008 season.

Travis Etienne


Wasn’t it Les that slow played and O that came in late with an offer?

Yes, it was

quote:

"Coach (Ed) Orgeron and his staff came in here and worked extremely hard to get Travis," Phelps said. "The day Orgeron was named interim head coach (Sept. 25, 2016), he called me and said I’m coming after your boy.

And you've come to this brilliant conclusion all on your own after 1 full season at the helm?

O has coached LSU in 21 games.

Which part of your critique of Miles would you argue that O hasn’t displayed as well?

Yes sir, miles was not interested in etienne because of the style of runner he was. He wasn't the typical banger and big body type that miles liked to fit his antiquated offensive philosophy. LSU didn't get in on etienne until mid to late season and cost themselves a chance at a really good back because of miles.

1. His last full year he was 9-3, so not 5 losses
2. Aren’t you a moron O Pumper? Les sucking would be career numbers for O.

Coach Orgeron didn’t offer until December 27th. Not even mid or late season.

I didn't say they offered him, I said they got in pursuit of him mid to late season, big difference.

Getting in on him that late was bad in itself. The dude should have been offered in his junior year, I know they had other targets, hence the bigger body/banger types but this guy can play no matter his style/body size.

In that case, he attended junior day in February of that year so you’re still wrong.

Have to agree with THEHARAHANIAN, mediocrity started in 2008 when all the Saban,Jimbo recruits were gone with the exception of 1 season.

since les sucked so much then O should have no problems going to two national championship games and winning the SEC twice? I mean if les did it anyone can right?
