I don't buy it, you shouldn't fire a coach in the middle of a season I don't care if it's after a win. It's a bad look, it has to make the next guy think "is this how they'll do me?"

[@nraised2]

Coach O has had a good run. He has lots of money and has gone through lots of personal issues. I hope he takes this as an opportunity to take time off and get right. He’s 60 and rich! Would be a blast on tv though if he decides he wants to still be in the game.

This is why I love this show. As an LSU fan this is spot on. We have the players and financial backing to do it, we just need a head coach to root a culture of competitiveness. I’ve been looking at the potential rumors with great hope that LSU will be a top 10 team once again in 2-3 years. Here’s to hoping for a good run next season.

[@sbolden123]

Ed Orgeron is not a good head coach but rather a good defensive line coach. 2019 they caught lightning in a bottle and he had a good staff to cover up his flaws.

[@oy.editz_]

He also kept the players morale up he made sure that they were calling the right plays in 2019 I believe that age is the problem

[@k.c.6846]

Wasn’t lightning bud. So everyone that wins a natty except for bama I guess, catches lightning in a bottle? LSU has more nattys than clemson, Ohio state, OU, UGA, Texas and Auburn since 2000. So everyone catches lightning? Orgeron put that team and staff together and it worked, it also worked since he took over in 2016. He isn’t a good head coach at all, an good not great line coach and a great recruiter, but it wasn’t lightning in a bottle. They had some luck that year and beat the hell out of the two in the CFP. Sometimes it works for others than bama.

[@allensaunders449]

He did a great job as an interim coach at USC. Didn't get the head coaching job he wanted badly. He lost his passion and focus fame got to him at LSU

[@MrBigBoy4Life]

Orgeron simply maxed out his talents at LSU! As a fan, I appreciate the 2019 natty, but as a coach, he's simply plateaued. We (LSU) needs to bring in someone who can consistently maintain a successful college football program rather than trying to recreate the 2019 glory days.

Yes it’s been said since week one they made the decision to let Ed O go, if you think about it it was the right decision when your the face of the LSU program you have a image to hold up and Ed embarrassed himself and the school. He believed he ego is bigger and better then the school its self and now he knows its not. All he had to do is stay humble and hungry not post pictures of him ( 60 year old man ) and a 20 year old college girl, or put down the coaches that work for him when he himself doesn’t know anything about X’s and O’s. Yes he won a title one title but your not on Saban level so don’t act like it by putting your foot in your mouth and knowing you can’t back it up and as a father of 20’s year old daughters I’m glad his creepy old *** is fired and will no longer be the face of the beloved Tigers Country!!

I’ve said amongst my Cornhusker co-workers, if it’s not at a minimum Luke Fickell, we’re setting the program back 2 recruiting classes I.e. minimum 8 years by telling Oeaux to geaux If we’re not careful with the Nick Saban Syndrome every school has these days, we could easily wind up in the depths of football hell for decades…see Nebraska, Texas, USC etc All different scenarios at each school but, same principles as to why they are where they are.

It started at Michigan State with Sabin.He jumped to LSU when he couldn’t compete with Michigan for recruits in B1G insane as it sounds. Particularly with Michigan calls MSU little brother… Sabin for started in Midwest. Can’t forget Toledo his first HC job. I will say his greatest work not in titles but in bringing MSU up to respectability in B1G was difficult with the monster Atm Michigan was going 34-24 was a major accomplishment in turning program around when he left mark datonio took it to another level. Sabin traveled to LSU to escape the monster known as Michigan. He built a power house in Baton Rouge gaining LSU a national title before taking flight to the nfl Dolphins found out he didn’t have total control in Davie, FL he soon jumped ship once again. Side note remember belichick at Cleveland Sabin was his defensive coordinator. That’s how he hit the Toledo job. Alabama and Sabin were a natural fit after a few years of struggles and recruiting cycles something strange happened Alabama started resembling Wallace wades program once again. A devestating efficient power house on the rise. Bryant has the noteriery but Wade is one who built the programs legacy from Beginning snd Sabin has raised that bar a notch higher.somewhere both Wallace and bear are smiling down on sweet Lou. Georgia may be ranked one but does anyone think they can score 35 points against Alabama it will take that many points to beat the rising tide! Tide has lost three games in three years each by three points and Texas am was lowest scoring game of them.
