I'm a big Elephant fan, but you have to like this guy. He came all the way to Alabama to see a very sick child who was a fan of his. This guy is first class all the way.

[@GunnersRange]

The best part is we [LSU] finally have a Coach who doesn't have an accent! We don't have any problem understanding him cuz he's us!! ;D

[@captainjim6300]

I worked in Louisiana for years and this interview is the first time I have understood him..lol I worked as a Towboat Captain with several of my crew members on the boat were Cajuns. I also had to talk to the other Captains and about every fifth boat on average was likely a piloted by a Cajun. This is a really good interview and shows him in a good light. This is the first interview I have ever seen him in that I could understand everything he was saying. lol Him and Sark and hopefully even Kiffin have finally matured and at least O and Sark have changed a lot. I know Sark does not drink at all anymore not sure about Coach O or if he ever had any of the problems Lane and Sark had. I think like Coach O one day Sark will get another chance if he wants it. Lane more or less drank himself out of a job but he is awful quite these days so maybe he has matured. That was a hell of a staff Carroll had and also Jimmy Johnson during Miami's reign as the best. I wish him great success except against UA. This year's game will be exciting if Tua is able to play and I think he will be. However if it is as bad as his ankle was hurt in the UGA game he will not be back for LSU. I know he said that he did not completely heal until after Spring Practice and the SEC CG was in Dec.. He was able to play in about 4 Weeks but he was not close to 100%. Jalen had the same surgery last year and he could not even walk for two weeks. He took at least 4 weeks to heal enough to play. Both had Level 3 sprains which swell and have tendon or ligament tears. I do not think it is a 3 and hope it is a 1 if so he will be back for the game. If the loser does not have another loss it may be possible for two SEC teams to get in it depends on OU and OSU. At least 4 SEC teams would go unbeaten with Clemson's schedule. It will be hard for any of us not to lost a game. Good luck I certainly did not know he was ever at Miami.

I often stayed at the truck stops in Port Allen. One Saturday night I heard loud noise, I became a LSU fan that night. One could feel the energy in the air. I almost wreck when crossing the BR bridge from staring at the stadium. I wish coach O was family. My dream is to one day have dinner with his family. GEAUX TIGERS!!!

[@MrPoetnscribe]

He's quite a man, My Christian brother. I'm from Alabama, old enough to have listened to that game when Billy Cannon ran the touchdown against Ole Miss. I'm still fascinated with the Cajun culture of Louisiana, as are many, many people. We used to love to hear those French names of the LSU players, and we still do. My favorite LSU cheer is the "Hot Boudin". Only I want the cheerleaders to keep the whole cheer French, not "c'mon Tigers, poosh, poosh, poosh!", but "ALLON tigers, poosh, poosh, poosh!" If you're gonna do it French, do it all the way French---and come up with some more Cajun laced Tiger yells. Don't let time take the fascination of French Louisiana away from the world!

[@tharrigville]

Man Coach O......I can honestly truly say from experience this man made my senior year at Nicholls St. best year of my college career. He was my d-line coach and pushed , motivated and made us believe we were going to be better. He suggested us go to summer school and on our own have our own practice. Because you know these NCAA rules he cldnt be out there with us. But it was a suggestion. Man I swear this guy cares, he is probably the best that happened to LSU, even better than Saban. Man I swear this guy is a motivator, a good person and couldn't a better thing happen to a better man , keep moving forward Coach O. Kick @ss on Monday, Geaux Tigers!

He was real and has such a likeabilty about him and I remember when we thought he was gonna get the job, the entire stadium was chanting COOOOOACH O ...The fans believed in Coach O and we were all devastated when He didn’t get the USC job and we ended up with Helton🤬 Sorry to say USC got what they deserved.....However I wish Coach O and the entire State of Louisiana the best and I hope you guys win the National title...

I'm from Lockport, LA, about 15 miles North of BeBe's hometown. Lafourche Parish has had it's share of great College and Pro football, baseball, and basketball players. From Joe Labruzzo, Bobby Hebert, Tommy Hodson, Ben Bordelon, BeBe, Ronnie Estay, Larry Wilson, Nicky Savoie, Art Cantrelle, Curtis Martin, Oliver Marcel, among others. There is not ONE man better suited to coach LSU. I think it is every young man in Lafourche Parish dream to be good enough to play at LSU, in whatever sport they play. And to play for a coach like BeBe, it would be a dream come true. All of the above guys are some of the nicest people you would want to meet. No bragging about what they accomplished. Just down to earth guys. But, when they were on the field, they would just as soon tear your arm off and beat you in the head with it. LSU has the right coach, right now.
