Tell me how?
3-7 likely.
Shitty defense, shitty offense.
Players leaving. Loss of scholarships
Coaches with their heads up their asses.
NCAA sanctions possible.
A Title IX investigation that alleges the university ignores victims of abuse or sexual assault.

I applied the Orgeron fan excuse program to your post:


3-7 likely.

Look how many players we lost.

Shitty defense, shitty offense.

We couldn't practice this spring.

Players leaving. Loss of scholarships

It is happening to every other team.

Coaches with their heads up their asses.

They are new coaches who didn't have time to implement their own programs. Besides, Aranda sucked.

NCAA sanctions possible.

Alabama does the same thing but doesn't get punished.

A Title IX investigation that alleges the university ignores victims of abuse or sexual assault.

O is just the coach, fire the administration of LSU.

and for the entire group of criticisms, the ultimate excuse:

if Les Miles was here we'd be in the same boat, Curley Hallman was just as bad, Nikki Vargas needs to be canned, etc.

He didn't really keep him. That would have meant O negotiated well, sold the program and his system, and Aranda bought in to it and was excited.

O just wrote him the biggest check possible. Not a lot of deliberation or negotiation. Made him the highest paid assistant in football, because O had nothing else to offer him but money.

Remember when he used to negatively recruit the frick out of us when he was at USC, Ole Miss, and Tennessee?

Remember when Ole Miss was his "dream job"

Remember when USC was his "dream job"

I'm not saying O doesn't love LSU or Louisiana but let's not act like he is Mr. LSU til he dies either

Well, O,

We only need to look at this account creation date to figure out when you got back on the sauce.

I agree that he deserves a chance to make this right.

And you people are crazy if you think this can't get worse.

Loves LSU so much that he quit his job in the dead of night with LSU in 08 not long after he was hired to join his buddy in Knoxville and tried getting our commits to de commit and follow him. Yeah. It’s a pay check and he’s as loyal as the highest bidder. To bad Allieva didn’t realize that no one was bidding or would have bid on him.

I wish people would stop claiming O kept Aranda. It was equivalent to the Miles hiring and being forced to retain Jimbo. The AD made sure Aranda stayed to cover his own arse. O didn’t pay him or offer him $2.5 million, Alleva did.

O hired:
1) Canada as OC - disaster

2) Kept E as OC in 2018 - disaster

3) Robinson as RB/RC - meh. He had 2 top tier RBs and Guice was already a beast before he came to town (see 2016). Not horrid but not a hit.

4) Joseph - utter disaster

5) Jenkins - Old and honestly DL was awful under him

6) D Johnson - awful hire as LBer coach AND then as DL coach

7) Sullivan - awful and no development

8) Busch - one safety developed and the rest garbage if we are honest. Miss.

9) Creggs couldn’t develop a young player to save his life. He’s the Crowton of OL coaches which sucks for a school that has to develop OL since they aren’t getting top tier talent there like a Bama.

10) Brady - super hit!!

11) Pelini - I feel for him but wow

12) Faulk - oh geez

13) Linehan - waste of space

14) Bill Johnson - poor development and little improvement at poor DL

15) McMahon - Special teams has been mediocre outside of kicker

16) why the hell is Joseph still on staff and Assistant Head Coach? Good God!

Literally, 1 great hire out of 15. Jesus that is bad. The rest are bad to mediocre.

How worse could this season be?

And when you accept that "it could be worse" then you are no longer the hunter. You're the hunted.

Rohan Davey said Wednesday, this feels exactly like Dinardo 1999, not only around B.R. but as a program in general.


For those of us who weren’t around, what happened with that?
