Keep dreaming


So, the only logical alternative if your first three options do not work out is to turn to option #72, huh?

Ok I’ll play.

Neal Brown.

You know, the HC at Troy whose superior coaching led them to beat Orgeron’s LSU team at our homecoming with a roster full of inferior players.

I just hate the situation that LSU’s athletic director put him in.


Nah...Joe Alleva's an a-hole but he wasn't riding around down in LaRose one day and bopped Ed Orgeron on the head and kidnapped him and forced him to be LSU's head coach.

Even if you somehow think he wasn't politicking behind the scenes for Miles to be fired we all saw him and how he acted when he was named interim. He was far more interested in that time as a job interview and less about leading LSU during that interim phase.

Most people assumed that Orgeron was going to just be the stop gap until we hired the real thing. He never intended to leave, and thus he's fully responsible for his actions.

Except for 2011. And 2012 when we were a busted screen play away from beating Bama and controlling the West. I could go on

C'mon bro. In the championship game in '11. That's sniffing.

meh I don't necessarily blame him for going for it, he saw a chance to redeem his miserable record as a HC at a program he thought he could operate on cruise control. The adults in the room are supposed to see through his bullshite and Alleva failed us.

When did the admins start banning people for negative posts about O? If that's true then this place will turn into the Ye Olde Green Wave forum.

I mean, people forget because it was hard to watch the slide, but LSU was ranked #4 in the first College Football Playoff Poll the week leading up to the BAMA game in 2014. Yes...shite went sideways after that, but if we're being honest being ranked #4 as late as early November IS being in the hunt.

The issue was that was becoming a trend that needed to end, which was...I thought, why we made the change?

I don't blame him for wanting a high profile job that would make him a multi-millionaire either.

I do hold him responsible for his actions once he got what he wanted though. He's not blameless for taking a job he was never qualified for just because the adults in the room should have prevented it form ever happening.
