The guy couldn't pull kids away from LSU when he was head coach right next door at Ole Miss. Why should we be worried about him as a d-line coach across the country?
:geaux: I think Alabama, Auburn, Ga., Ga. Tech, Clemson, UNC, Old Piss and Miss. St. will feel the effects of the Ogre before LSU does. Those schools are closer to the areas Tenn. traditionally recruits. Not saying that the Vols won't ever get a kid or two from La., they have in the past but not consistently. Ogre won't help Tenn. to get La. kids any more often than they do now or in the past. As previously posted, he may get some kids that LSU doesn't have room for or don't need for one reason or another. I don't see Tenn. getting a La. kid that LSU really wants unless the kid just wants to go out of state, i.e. McKnight. Ogre is not going to hurt us on a regular basis. CLM and his staff won't let a kid go that LSU really wants and aren't worried about "Big Ed". :LSU231:
After seeing Chavis' track record in the SEC and looking at the coaches he brought in I'm more glad than ever coach Orgeron went to Tennessee. I don't think he would have fit in very well here. He would not have been that much of a coaching or recruiting asset. After all we already own Louisiana. Time will tell though. Either he or his agent is a great promoter though. Tennesse was induced to pay him a lot and with saints DC Gary Gibbs now fired you can bet ciach O wouldn't have been around the saints D at all next season. Him staying with the saints was leverage that I don't think ever really existed.
O will probably affect Alabama and Georgia more than LSU. He'll probably take a player or two here and there but nobody really gets who LSU wants in Louisiana other than LSU and I don't see that changing unless the program just completely collapses.
