I hear that Alabama wants him to help on Defense. What do you all think about him at the Saints and what did you think about him while at LSU?

Saints were 23ed in the NFL on Defense(offense gave them plenty of rest) and he was a part of it. Has little respect from players. I hope you get him.

I heard the same thing about 2004. His players hated him. Guy supposedly rants and raves and dog cusses everyone all practice.

when Saban left supposedly a shitload of D line players were about to transfer because they hated Travis Jones and claimed he played favorites.

Lil' Nicky won't EVER stop trying to have what he had here @ LSU. It's getting kind of comical, all the way down to wearing the purple and gold at the Sugar Bowl presser.

I've heard Ruffin from Tuskegee. He used to play at UNA.

What I find comical is that Jones was the Assistant Defensive Line coach for the Saints and a LSU fan is saying that the Saints sucked partially because of him. Yet, 3 weeks ago all of you were jumping up and down over the prospect of getting Orgeron, who by the way was THE Defensive Line Coach, and didn't care what the Saints' defensive rank was.

As what? A head coach? A defensive line coach? Look buddy, as a huge Saints fan I can tell you that with 3 first round drafts picks at his disposal, Orgeron did about as shitty of a job that one could do in getting them motivated and prepared to play.

you can't really deny he's been a solid DL coach.

Coach O is a great recruiter but I don't think he's a great DL coach. He's a solid coach IMO but the reason LSU wanted him is because he CAN recruit with the best of them.

I wish they would have gotten him instead of UT!
