Why did LSU rush and pick Orgeron?

It's not like anyone else was going to offer him.

They could have waited for a bit to see what shakes out.

This is the biggest mistake they've made in this saga. They should have talked to at least 3 more outside candidates.

Go get PJ Fleck. Hell he would be worth as much as Coach O. He currently only makes like a half million. I'm sure he'd leave for 3.5 million.

They didn't rush

They've been hunting for months, putting out feelers

Obviously they were not getting the interest they hoped for

Gene Chizik would have been a better hire

He knows how to cook gumbo and pronounces New Orleans the right way.

Seriously? I love bagging on L6U as much as anyone, but I find it hard to believe Fleck had no interest.

i agree. Miles couldn't manage a clock worth shite and the AD can't manage time for hiring and firing worth shite.

Him and Miles were a match made in heaven.

I guess they wanted to hold a press conference on the biggest rivalry weekend of the year so no one would notice.

Is the rumor I heard about Herman asking for 6mil from LSU and LSU said no? why? why not pay the man you want?

Our AD made an emotional decision

That's pretty much it

Herman contacted Alleva early this morning and said he was leaning Texas and wanted to hear their offer.

He had several offers on the table. We were in a bidding war for him. Just the way it goes.

I personally think you guys will be ok but trust me...Alabama fans know the feels when it comes to getting snubbed by good coaches and getting stuck with someone you don't want.
