ESPN indirectly bashing their own employee TBF, Gene had Auburn bowl eligible the next season

I think the lesson to be learned is great players can produce a great season (Auburn 2010, LSU 2019, etc.) however only great coaching can produce a great program.

O still has some time to recover. If he makes the right decisions we will return to greatness.

LSU has 3 NC since 2004. LSU is a great program.

At this point I think a comparison to Shrimp Boat Ed is an insult to Chizik.

LSU had great coaching last year. They don't this year. Ya'll can do the math.

LSU also had about the worst luck possible this year in terms of players being unavailable for a multitude of reasons.

LSU has 3 NC since 1960 is also a true statement.

It’s cool how major networks will pick up something like this as their own content when we’ve been saying it for months here

Chizik may be the nicest guy to ever be a head coach in SEC history. Too nice to be a head coach. I do wish people could find out all the things that he and his wife did for other people, most of them they didn't even know. He was his worst enemy,though

I will give Orgeron a pass this year with everything that has happened. My guess is his number one issue right now is himself and at-home issues. He will have to be on damage control the rest of the season. He will have to make some coaching changes again, fight to keep the top players, and finish with a strong recruiting class. If he doesn't have LSU competitive next year and this trend continues - he is out.

Nebraska won 3 NCs in the 90s. Then made some questionable coaching hires and...POOF!

That’s when you know it’s true when ESPN finally comes around to observing something that everyone has been saying multiple seasons

That’s pretty messed up considering Chizik is employed by ESPN.

Nebraska doesn't really have a talent rich recruiting base
