re: WVUE Channel 8 New Orleans

Miles has no room for error here. This will be interesting to watch. If he chooses the wrong guy and things go south again, watch out.

"ups" as up in pay maybe? I think LSU could handle that if that is what he is talking about

First of all,if Chavis is coming, I'd think he has the most say so on the incoming OL coach. As an excellent DC in the SEC, he must have a handle on th best DL line coaches around and available.
Second, if O has character issues, I'd also think LSU has many spies who can speak to Saint's people and get the skinny on his alleged drinking, temperament, etc. If he is a hot potato, too hot to handle, he should be passed over. He could do more harm than good.

Please don't believe Miles is locked up in his closet dealing with some dark side ego problem. His issue will be, is O able to be handled without disrupting the organization, is he a good OL, is he compatible with the other coaches (especially the incoming DC), and is he just looking for a stepping stone?

When these issues are covered, there are more to be answered which I'll leave to the experts to handle. Beyond those ideas is above my pay grade.

signed with LSU, played at Northwestern State.
Saints D-Line showed no improvement, this guy is WAY overrated

saints d-line showed no improvement because grant and smith's fat asses are not listening to some guy who just got fired from ole miss 1 season after they received big contracts

I think thats the main reason coach O wants to come back to college, and he would probably come to LSU to do the same thing he is doing with the saints. but Miles won't hire him.

I think most of us arguing the same point but from different angles. Most seem to want him as DL coach/recruiting coordinator but not as DC.

Unfortunately, there are many questions to be answered before hiring him as a defensive assistant:

1. Is he willing to take a lateral move?
2. Could he and LM get along?
3. Who will the DC be?
4. Will that DC want O as his dl coach? The new DC (if there is a new DC) may have his own dl coach to bring on board.

It would be difficult for Les to hire a dl coach before naming a DC, as a selling point for a quality DC is the ability to bring his own guys.

What job would Orgeron like at LSU?

Defensive coordinator?

Absolutely not. The man is a barbaric, dense lunatic. Yes, he can recruit, but he was a horrendous tactical coach at Ole Miss. Additionally, he is certifiably nuts, as evidenced by the fact that he repeatedly took his shirt off in Ole Miss meetings to "challenge the manhood of his team." Yeah, that was effective.

The guy might have a legitimate learning disability.

No.

But, will the Northern Yankee Ohio version of Hudson "Curley" H do the sane thing or just sit back and let Tennessee or some other school beat LSU to the punch?..........

wow, you believe in the "he won with Sabans players" mantra, right?

If LSU gets a chance to take O and doesn't -
well, you can fill in the rest!

Okay----I really don't know who out there would be the best DC. I have read neg. on Chavis and the O and Tubby coming to LSU is a joke in my opinion. So someone please tell me who would be the best hire. I have really become confused.!!!
