Haven’t seen anyone making posts about doubting O. Not sure what you are talking about.

Losing both Brady & Aranda before the end of the week has a few people on edge.

Also while O has found answers to previous issues, I believe this will be his toughest test yet.

Hopefully he hits it out of the park again like when he hired Aranda.

Who cares right now? Even if he fails on these 2 hires I'm perfectly willing to give him another chance to find elite guys. Like I said earlier, with this style of coaching our results will probably vary more and we may have more disappointing seasons but we will always have a chance at a title the very next season because of the way he attacks weaknesses in his program.

No one is doubting O. This kind of attrition is normal after a championship and I think most reasonable people understand that. Personally, I don’t think we go freaking 15-0 next year but that’s not a knock against O. It’s hard to replace what we’ve lost quickly. But man, watch out for 2023. That LSU four year cycle is real, baw.

Your wrong. He is exactly what we have always needed . Guy to ID the problem and work to fix it them move on to next problem until it's a well oiled machine... I think 2021 is the year and I think 3 losses is acceptable for next year as long as they are the close losses that could go either way and after the loss the issues are worked on and fixed...

This guy is what everyone was hoping for when les what here... When something isn't working don't keep doing it... adapt and overcome

All I'm saying is with the type of coach O is our results will probably be more widely distributed than with Miles


Dude, without the talented coordinators, he is Miles. That’s the point. The only difference is yes, he clearly is open to fix weaknesses. But as a coach, if he doesn’t have the right people around him, he is Miles. That’s the entire reason why teams are moving in the direction of a head coach who can handle one side of the ball.

Look, it's a little delusional to think we wint take a step back next year and maybe even the next.


Give me a break, this team is still loaded to the gills. We may not have Joe Burrow anymore, but Alabama doesn't have Tua anymore either. Thus, as loaded as this LSU team will be next year, we will still have a very excellent chance of beating Alabama at home and at winning the SEC West.

If anyone is a little delusional, go look in a mirror!

Orgeron is nowhere near as stubborn as Miles. I feel way better about where the program is now compared to '07.

Orgeron is establishing his program his way.
We play hard, have fun and win championships.
CEO gives coaches freedom to do their thing.
CEO went out and found Brady and got him here.
Maybe he'll convince Munoz to fill that spot
I have confidence CEO will land someone for the defensive side.
who wouldn't want to come here?

What makes you think we are going to lose three games next season? We are not! Not as loaded as this team still is. We may not have Joe Burrow anymore next season, but nonetheless, we still are loaded to the gills at wide receiver, at running back, and at tight end. The offensive line will be as good or better than in 2019. While the defense is also loaded to the hilt with top-end elite defensive talent!

As Alabama will not have Tua anymore and thus, we have an excellent chance of beating Alabama at home and at winning the SEC West next season. Give me a freaking break.

All LSU has to do is show that they have offense and it wasn’t some one hit wonder and all the doubters will shut up.

We'll see now that he's lost both coordinators and just about every player of merit on the team.


Let’s take a look at this year’s starting players who were recruited under Orgeron (bold).

LT Charles*
LG Magee
C Cushenberry
RG Lewis
RT Deculus*
TE Moss
WR1 Chase
WR2 Marshall
WR3 Jefferson*
QB Burrow
RB Edwards-Helaire*


OLB Clark
DE Logan (Secondary recruiter)
NT Shelvin*
DE Lawrence (Secondary recruiter)
OLB Chaisson*
MLB Queen*
MLB Phillips*

CB Fulton
FS Delpit*
SS Stevens*
CB Stingley

NB Vincent*

The ones marked with a * were part of our 2017 class, which was ranked #7 nationally (247). Now consider that our 2019 and 2020 classes were both ranked #5 nationally. We might be down next year, given the historic nature of this season, but the future is very bright.

Now let’s look at coaching staff hired under Orgeron:

AHC/DC Aranda
OC/QB Ensminger (Promoted)
PGC/WR Brady
AHC/RB/RC Robinson
S Busch
OL Cregg
DL Johnson
WR Joseph
ST McMahon

DB Raymond

I can’t understand how people can think he just lucked into the greatest LSU season of all time. Yeah, Orgeron might have caught lightning in a bottle. But he built the bottle, the kite, the key, and the clouds.
