I was ecstatic about his hire.
What followed (all the hate) is something for Ripley's Believe it or Not to me.
I don't know one USC fan that's not still upset they let him go.
What he and Ensminger did as interims was somehow discounted by Tiger fans.
So glad his good fortune is happening.
Gotta get this D fixed though.

I was really happy when O got the job. I knew in my gut that he was the right choice. Of course, almost everyone ridiculed the crap out of me.

Who's laughing now, bitches?

I like O and he is doing a great job now, but when he lost to Troy and admitted that he took control of the offense in the 1st half where we scored 0 points, Alleva had to have a meeting with him and the coordinators and allegedly told him to give up total control with play calling to the coordinators. As much as Alleva screwed up almost everything, without that intervention, who knows if O would have even survived that season.

I did. There were so many haters even before this season started it’s going to be crazy when we win it all. One poster said he will never win a championship of any kind...well we are a win away from winning the west

Can that one be bumped or it’s anchored?

I was neutral but willing to give it a shot unlike many of the simpletons who post here. They've bitched for two years and all of a sudden get pissed if you mention their past posting behavior.

So you’re bashing fans for questioning the O hire after losing to Troy and having a sub par start yet you yourself have used a handful of games while ignoring the rest of his career to bash Aranda 24/7. No you’re not a hypocrite at all lol.

I saw him as the uninspired choice that would take us from Les to the next possible great coach. A transitional figure. O then proceeded to teach me a thing or two.

Keep it up bro. You are doing some good work.

Many disagreed with the hire and continued to support the program and be optimistic.

The ones who ran down the program every chance they got and have bashed the staff for a few years def need to get it rubbed into their face. And to think they called the ones who supported o and the program dumb when they are the ones who apparently don’t know their football.

Did you not watch the defense last night?

O was a terrible hire and may never win another game. This board told me so.

I find it strange that many of the Aranda bashers are also Coach O fanatics. I mean O had the chance to fire him and move on when he took over but not only did he keep him but gave him a huge raise and promotion. So is O just a fool, or maybe some of the O fanatics here are a little too harsh on Aranda. I guess they want to bash Aranda because people were wanting him as HC over O. I don't know. It's fricking weird though.

I don’t but you’re right and the reason is because while Orgeron was getting criticized trying to identify and settle on an offensive philosophy Aranda was carrying the program for 3 years. So there’s a huge revenge angle to all of this.

Is that what you call it? “Questioning?”

You've been melting for a decade. You hate everyone associated with LSU except Will Wade.

You bitched about Miles, and you're still in meltdown
