I’m assuming he then wouldn’t have had he excuses to keep his job this season and we’d already have a new coach.

This didn't have anything to do with COVID. It had to do with O being unable to properly assess the BLM movement with his players.

Covid excuse is b/s everybody had to deal with it. And he still brought in Pellini so wouldn't had made a difference.

Covid was not responsible for O’s crappy hires and judgement.

More or better players could have masked some shortcomings, but scheme and player intensity remained inept.

excuses. There was plenty of talent last year to not lose to miss state, mizzou auburn and get absolutely humiliated by bama. 7 possessions 7 tds lol. Keep up the excuses. I know LSU only dealt with covid and opt outs.

I just said it didn’t help matters

No reason to get your feelings all hurt. Quit being so fragile.

Are you a girl? Just curious.

George Floyd had no shortage of ways to get arrested, I'm sure he'd have figured it out.

I agree with all this, and what brought about O’s demise and don’t think a different course of action should have been taken. But I will also say it’s a shitty set of circumstances in a row. Hell, again not making any excuses but just take a look at the depth chart what it was before the UCLA game and what it is today.

Opt outs hurt all teams but having Chase and Shelvin alone probably gets is 2 wins. Vincent could have made a difference also.

Correct me if I’m wrong but no COVID “only” means Chase, Marshall and Vincent stay correct?

Tyler Shelvin would have been a beast as a 1 technique in a 4-3

Marcel brooks was not going to hold up at mike or will. That dude weighs like 200 pounds, maybe.

He transferred cause he wasn't going to start.

What really hurt is that we came close to keeping Brady.
Brady had Caleb Williams considering LSU as his number one.
Brady apparently was going to turn down any highly paid lateral move offers and he was such a talked about name as the guy who brought LSUs offense to the modern era that some very small schools were considering him as a college head coach.
He was going to be OC or Co-OC at LSU for about 1.5 million a year.
Rhule leaving Baylor and getting the Carolina NFL head coaching position was a little out of left field and unbelievably cost us Brady as OC and Aranda as our DC.
Brady and Aranda would have made a huge difference for 2020, 8-2 at worse, maybe better.
One more year as OC and if Brennan put up big numbers then Brady probably leaves as he would have had many more offers.
But Rhule jumping from college to the NFL changed LSU, and Orgeron’s, future in a major way

If there is no COVID, I think Pelini has more time and space to install the new defense, which would have yielded somewhat better results. I say somewhat because we still didn't have the right players.

If my aunt had balls she'd be my uncle.

If anything, covid gave O a pass for last year. It's the fact that they still looked the same this year that is the reason for O's demise.

No there were certainly things outside his control that contributed to his downfall and there were some things within it that did also.
