I really thought he was well on the way to being a rip-snortin' successful coach, until that Florida fiasco. That was inexcusable.

Let's just be competitive when we lose to 14 point underdogs in a game in Tiger Stadium
LSU had 423 total yards to 270 for Florida. 23 first downs to 14. The lead in every category but the final score.
That game is why Tommie Robinson is the RB's coach and not Jabar Juluke. Another great move by Coach O in his mission to improve the LSU program.

I do like the Robinson hire.

The program at Ole Miss is just bad. I don't blame Orgeron for not winning at Ole Miss because the only guy with any real success there is a flagrant cheater.
Go research what the guy immediately before, and the guy immediately after, O did. You're making yourself look incredibly dumb in this thread.

I didn't realize our sophomore, SEC leading rusher, RB needed his position coach out on the field to tell him which way to go, like it's pee wee football.

Just think how much we'd be blasting and laughing at another sec program if they wouldve hired our dline coach as their head coach
Well lets see. If another SEC team hired our dline coach and kicked our arse like our dline coach did to Missouri, Ole Miss, Arkansas and A&M we probably wouldn't be laughing at all.
If we did we would be idiots because not only did he kick our arse last year with a TE's coach running the offense he now has the only offensive Broyles Award candidate as OC. NOPE, wouldn't be FUNNY one damn bit.

fact that he is the head football coach at LSU is probably enough proof. They obviously liked what he had accomplished at USC and LSU. They got to witness the difference in the team and the moves Coach O made.
Have you seen the last few hires that Alleva's made in major sports?

Wow.

I'm confident in O because of the way the LSU team looked and played after
We didn't beat a team with a pulse of a run defense after O took over and we scored a total of ten points in two homes losses against teams who could handle the LSU rushing game. The bowl win was nice, but it came against a team who ended their season with four losses.
O might turn out to be the best hire ever made at LSU, but there is NOTHING in his coaching resume to show him worth this massive gamble on the part of Alleva.

TE's coach running the offense
You keep saying this like it was a bad thing. Who put the TE coach in charge of the offense?

Did you see the game against Florida? A 14 point underdog that was missing tons of defensive starters?
Did you see LSU get 153 more yards than UF's 270.
Did you see the LSU RB's coach that was reassigned because of the last play where Guice ran the wrong way?
quote:
Again, im not saying this wont be true in the future but as of right now there is zero evidence of this
So, let me get this straight - you have seen zero evidence that Coach O has made moves to improve the team's performance and ability to compete in the SEC West.
You live under a fricking rock? What a fricking joke you are.

will you also be around to take your lumps when LSU is going 8-4 and 7-5 in years 3 and 4?
Why exactly would LSU go 8-4 and 7-5 in years 3 and 4? It is stupid to make hypotheticals and try to include them in a post while trying to make a point.

That is all you bring to the table? To tell someone else to post less?
You should apply your own advice to yourself.
As to Grandad.....it is hard to fully articulate why, but I have lots of hope moving into this season and the seasons ahead.
Geaux Tigers!!!

If you think not choosing coodinators, not choosing schemes,not running the offense,and not running the defense means he is running a program
He ran the USC program a hell of a lot better than the guy they had just fired. Why couldn't the guy who some idiot LSU fans wanted as head coach not have success with the program while choosing coordinators, choosing schemes, running the offense and not running the defense???
Why is that? Maybe Coach O's method of running a program is much greater than his predecessor's.
quote:
He was chosen to be interim head coach at those stops because 3 of the 4 coordinators at those places were in their 1st year( 4 games) at those jobs.
Do you still have the email from the Athletic Directors when they told you this. Whether pure luck or well thought out action, both USC and LSU made the correct decision with Coach O.

So I see this thread has devolved into another rant vs. rickdaddy show.
I didn't think we'd have to deal with many Les supporters who are now Coach O haters. But he's one of them.

Orgeron was the recruiting coordinator last year. He gets some of that credit
Yeah, that's not exactly true. Ed Orgeron was never the RC for a Les Miles signed class. CEO became RC when Frank Wilson left in January 2016. CEO has not been a RC for any LSU signing class. I believe the WR coach that was let go was the RC for this year's class.

including Arden Key the previous year.
This is very true. 0% chance of Arden being at LSU if not for Coach O.

I hope O proves every doubter, including myself, wrong. But this is such a stupid line of logic. I guess Johnny Jones was greatly improved from his time at UNT and ready for the big time based on the fact that LSU hired him, right?
If history repeated in every instance of change (especially in football and I guess now basketball) you may have an argument. BUT, it doesn't so you don't. My counter to your ridiculous hypothetical point about the basketball coach would be the team who just won the college football championship this year after hiring their WR coach. That's history also.

Ha, yeah right!!! Let me spend a portion of my life tearing this guy down - but I hope he does good.
And you said my comment was a stupid line of logic.

In what way is that proof? What other top program was knocking down O's door to be head coach?
At the time, four games into the season, probably no one. I think he would have been the next HC at Arkansas if LSU hadn't hired him.
He would have fricked with LSU if he was the HC at Arkansas. He has more Louisiana connections than probably any LSU coach ever, he is a great recruiter, and he would have hired great coordinators at Ark also. Would have been a perfect fit.

"Many successful coaches"
Look, I am all for waiting to see what coach O brings to the table under SEC fire as the head guy before I try to rate him, but do you really believe NS, UM, JF, or JH of the college football world are successful cause of their OC or DC??
