Former players of Les Miles say Coach Orgeron is better coach

Played poker most of the night with some former LSU players, also saw a few current Tigers roaming around. Some are going to New Orleans tomorrow to see the Saints play in the NFC title game. These Tigers were very impressed by the job Coach O and his assistants did in 2018.

One former player, Dominic Cooper who was coached by both Saban and Miles, made it clear that Coach O and his staff are more talented than Miles and his assistants. He noted that LSU was picked to finish 6-6 in 2018, but instead, LSU's players came very close to finishing the season at 12-1. He credited that to great coaching and LSU's ability to prepare its players and making the right adjustments needed during a game. He also made it clear how respected and loved Coach O is among current and former LSU players. The next task for LSU coaches, he noted, is to prove that they can take on the big boys of Alabama, these former players feel very confident that LSU will.
