To follow up on this: I know it's amusing to shite all over Orgeron, and I'm not sold that he is a long-term solution, but since he became interim HC, LSU is 10-4 in SEC play. That is the exact same record as Kirby Smart in that time frame. It is one game behind Gus. The next closest record in that time frame is UF at 8-6. So, at the moment, and given what other SEC coaches are paid, it seems like a pretty reasonable salary

You are right. But sometimes the "eye test" just overwhelms facts. And facts can be very misleading. He will get his chance.

He's doing this at LSU, who just 2 years ago was the only and had been the only SEC program to play level with Bama for 8 years, even though they lost the vast majority, they could have won every one but 21-0. They were almost Alabama's equal, despite the record. Now, despite some fans' understandable hope and protestations, you are hardly even a shadow of that program. Everyone but y'all can see it. But not blaming y'all, most everyone is the same in that regard. A few of us are actually even pulling for you but know there is no genuine hope with O. Maybe a game or even a season - Mike DuBose won an SEC Champ and beat Spurrier's UF twice in one season at UF and in the SECC game.


Wish you well - IMO, it's just not going to happen with O.
