Not bad for two months of work. Of course, Orgeron will be paid much more next year as the Tigers’ full-time head coach.
hey, anybdy got O’s digits? I need ta hit him up for a lil loan.. ;)
555-FBAW.
:D
He better be putting it in the bank. He don’t beat Bama in the next 2 years, he gone. That’s why I don’t think Kiffin is going to leave Bama for a downward move to LSU. He has a lot of good stuff going for his rep for HC position, by riding Hurts and the Bama train for a couple of more years.
You’re either dillusional, stupid or both. LK will NOT be coaching at UAT next yr!! His contact is up and he’s not invited back so he won’t be riding any trains in T-Town.
If he doesn’t get a HC job, he’ll be the OC at LSU. His option isn’t LSU vs UAT (Saban doesn’t want him/he wants out), it’s LSU vs other OC jobs if he doesn’t get a HC offer. The choice is really simple if you’re not an idiot too biased to see it. LSU is about the only other school that has comparable talent to the Tide. There was a story on sds where the Tide recruiting scored slightly higher than LSU’s over the past 5 yrs. No other tm was close to either of them.
Maybe, but I think he’s showed his hand at ‘Bama. People now know how good he is at a school with premiere talent, and people now know how good Jalen is. Should he decide to be a head coach somewhere, he could cut to the chase. Otherwise, I see LSU as an even bigger proposition for his reputation. Only for the sole fact that LSU has never been an offensive-minded school. Speaking hypothetically, should he go to LSU and do what he’s done at Bama, considering where LSU has been offensively for decades now, he would answer everyone’s questions about whether he is a worthy hire or not.
Once again, LSU people are arrogant, egotistical, but flat out stupid! Why on earth would Lane Kiffin leave Alabama to go to LSU for the SAME POSITION?!? It’s not a lateral move……it’s OBVIOUSLY a DOWNWARD move. No one his age – or maybe any age – is going to do that. But then, of course, this is the same buncha idiots who thought Jimbo Fisher would leave FSU to go there to get his a** kicked by Alabama every year and never again go to the SEC Championship Game. Yeah. Right. That’s what every coach wants to do. Dream on you LSU morons!!
You need to work on those anger issues Dave. If you were that confident Kiffin was staying, you wouldn’t be here losing your mind. Fans like you make me laugh.
agreed, dave needs some anger management classes. kiffin has his eye set on the top spot at lsu. joe alleva knows it..if o screws up hes got the job
Dave, I agree with you in part. But I think you need to calm down and assess the situation. There are like four LSU fans that read all of these articles. LSUMC is one, and although I don’t comment often, I read every single one. Relax, bud. You’re not doing much in the way of convincing the entire LSU fan base that they are morons. Some people are optimistic about Kiffin going to LSU (although I don’t know how likely it is, it is technically a sensible possibility). I’m just interested to see how it turns out. Have a great Friday, and do your best to relax.
So many of these guys just don’t get it.
It doesn’t matter if Kiffin wants to stay at Alabama. His contract was renegotiated without an extension. Alabama is letting him go.
Yeah, I getcha. The only reason I think that he may not go to LSU are the other intriguing openings at the HC position at schools that are a little more historically his “style.” Houston, Oregon, more to come… It’ll certainly be fun to find out though!
