I just saw "dopiest coach in the SEC" posted about COACH ORGERON on an Auburn board. "When the dopiest coach in the SEC out-schemes Gus and is brazen enough to tell the media about it after the game, you've got a problem. We have a problem." Well, I'm sorry... but that's just ignorant. I hear Orgeron speak, and through the thick rough Cajun accent come highly coherent words. The man is intelligent, and that's been evidenced in these past two games. I fear that "LSU" and "dopey" have become partnered because of one long term Les Miles, and it's just another unnecessary load for Orgeron to carry. Thus this thread.... I think it's unproductive at this point to be badmouthing the man... the criticism that he's "just a position coach" is particularly unfair, as though other head coaches didn't have to go through that subordinate phase. Give our coach some love, instead.... it just might help to recruit some other proud Louisianians.
Oops.... probably should merge this thread with the "Fight on Coach!" one. The theme is pretty much the same. Geaux Eaux!
Ed grew a lot yesterday and earned that victory. Have to think this bodes well as this staff learns to trust each other.
Les and the firing/hiring that led to O doesn’t help, his Waterboy accent and losing to Troy doesn’t help, but that win at AU helps. More wins will help.
This team doesn't quit. I will take that attitude over anything else. It is the characteristic that will see you through this. You simply don't quit. O and all these Tigers didn't quit after Troy, they didn't quit at Florida and they sure as hell didn't quit yesterday. You are not done when you lose. You are not done when you fall. You are done when you quit. And the one thing we should be quitting is the negativity.
I certainly believe in the power of negativity.... at its appropriate time, and when warranted. But, mygod, this is NOT the appropriate time. The man's record is what, right now? 12-4? And he hasn't had a recruiting class. The Lespians need to cool it for a spell.
