re: Coach O taking a run on the levee by L’Auburge Casino
Posted by atltiger6487 on 4/22/25 at 5:10 pm
quote:which was absurd, because the (ridiculous) reason for hiring O in the beginning was that we'd pay him less and spend more on assistants.
Ed Orgeron got a raise and an extension for it.
But that quickly got forgotten and we paid O a stupid amount of money.
The whole thing was nonsense from the start.

quote:no, it's not reality.
The second half of 17 set the ground work for their run in 18/19. O started figuring it out. Laugh all you want but its reality.
O had Burrow and all the offensive pieces in 2018 and didn't do much with it, under Ensminger.
Now yes, he brought in Brady in 2019 and it worked --- for one glorious year.
Then Brady and Burrow left and it all fell to crap.
O didn't "figure anything out." He got lucky with Brady and Burrow, etc. for one season.
2019 was an outlier.

quote:but O never built a program - he had one monster year with Burrow and Brady. Yes, O gets credit for brining them here, but it's not like O was building a program, he kind of lucked out with Burrow. Remember, in spring on 2018, Burrow wasn't a highly sought after transfer.
We were ahead of UGA. If we had a coach who was ambitious, we would have stayed ahead of UGA and won 2+ more titles. Instead, we cratered.
Remember O also had all that offensive talent on the 2018 roster and did little with it, under Ensminger.
Kirby built a program.

We can all love Corso, but yet acknowledge that he hung on far too long.
Those two aren't mutually exclusive.

Now you can't be Democrat and support LSU?!? MAGA wants to cancel everyone!
But it's fairly well understood by many folks, both on the left and the right, that James Carville is an odd bird and a bit of a kook.

Pretty eye-opening interview. Makes you feel for all involved, especially Lacy.
Got to take everything he says with a grain of salt.
re: Louisiana legislator puts forward bill to end LSU football day games in September
Posted by atltiger6487 on 4/16/25 at 9:32 am
quote:I also generally hate gov't getting involved, but I think it's legit for a state legislature to prohibit a state university from playing day games, if they think it's a safety issue.
But I'm sure they can force the university to only play night games. And walk away from all of the revenue that comes from getting a day slot.
But they should realize that TV controls the kickoff times. If there was no TV, all games would be night games, just like when I was a kid in the 1970s.
So LA can pass this bill, but they should realize the SEC (and LSU) risk losing TV revenue when the TV networks react.

One new poll has Auburn #8 and LSU #9. Texas is new #1.
Just try to get a top 8 seed so we host a regional.

quote:blaming this on "mental health" is misplaced. There's no indication that he suffered from depression, anxiety, bipolar, etc.
We need more mental health resources.
He was a guy who just make very bad, reckless decisions.
That's not at all the same as mental illness.

Some people should not have guns at the end of the day.
But who shouldn't have guns? And how do we define those people? And who gets to decide and interpret those definitions.
It's a very slippery slope.

quote:of course, but I don't classify reckless driving and fleeing the scene as a "mistake." A mistake is something more accidental, like hitting the gas instead of the brakes.
We all make mistakes
Assuming the facts we've all heard (and yes, I acknowledge that these facts may not be entirely accurate), his actions weren't "mistakes."
They were reckless, conscious decisions. Big difference.
All that said, I of course offer my condolences to his family, in addition to the car crash victim's family.

LSU should be ranked between 20-25.
Silly voter polls are a relic from the past.
Regardless of the sport, just make the tournament and try to get the highest seed possible.
That's it. Ignore the silly voter polls.
