Ed Orgeron has been able to adapt on the field. Now he must do so off it

Times are tense at LSU. Orgeron compared it to the days after the 2017 home loss to Troy. He compared it to the “black clouds all over” that first season. He knows he has a situation to handle, and he needs to do it correctly. He has star players opting out. He has others transferring. He had a players’ protest on societal issues during scheduled practice time that he wasn’t told about. He had COVID-19 temporarily taking most of LSU’s offensive line out of practice. He scolded a reporter Tuesday for reporting stories with anonymous sources. A section of the locker room was upset when he went on Fox News and said “I love President Trump.” There’s an ever-growing national discussion on racial justice amid police violence,

Seems like Yaw Yaw is having problems with the locker room. Honeymoon is over....the decline is real.

The fact that players are mad about his statement instead of trusting his actions over the last 4 years is whats wrong with America today.

I actually agree with this statement. But it shows you where we are in America right now. People can't seem to get along anymore unless their politics align.

Completely agree. Wish sports and politics were kept separate.

How the hell would a Kentucky football fan know what good coaching looks like? Y’all haven’t had a good coach since Bear Bryant

Disagreement has turned to racism or hate. People yell fascism without knowing what it is.

"Section of the locker room" but doesn't give a source or anything else

Like Trump said..: “Ed O is first casting for your football coach in a movie.” Coach O is a football coach, and a real man, players respect him way more than most coach speak bullshite coaches. This board tries to disparage him and it’s pathetic and hilarious. Just like with players opting out, everyone wanted to criticize and poke fun at LSU, anyone with a brain knew more were coming for EVERY team, LSU and O are just the leaders.

Will it? Seems like the sharks are circling...Ed getting a little snippy with a reporter at a press conference.

He won't be able to steal Sean Peyton's playbook for off the field and roster management issues.
Posted on 9/3/20 at 10:06 am to WildcatMike
oh no, our program is doomed because O got sick of a reporter spreading bullshite 
Posted on 9/3/20 at 10:08 am to WildcatMike
You don’t want players who quit on their team because of petty (and yes, this IS petty) differences of opinion that have nothing to do with the actual goals to be accomplished on the field. Tough to deal with this in the short term, good in the long term by discouraging such players from joining the program going forward.

bullshite? Get your head out of the sand...there is obviously issues in Baton Rouge. Ryan Clark fanning the flames...reporters are reporters and will make it a BIG deal.

if we have players pouting that Orgeron likes Trump that's on them. Silly,just silly.

I’m glad your concerned but it will be just fine come week 1. I’m not exactly sure what you think is going to happen but you can bookmark this for if/when it does.
