All good things take time, so when LSU struggled earlier this year, losing games to Mississippi State and Troy, coach Ed Orgeron didn’t panic.
His fan base, however, wasn’t so calm, and was quick to jump all over Coach O during his weekly radio program after the tough losses.
Now, though, Coach O has guided the Tigers to back-to-back wins over Florida and Auburn, and one LSU fan decided to call into the coach’s radio program on Wednesday night to apologize for their anger after the Mississippi State loss:

Orgeron expressed his thanks to the fan for apologizing, though it’s certainly not the first time he’s dealt with an angry fan.
Taking criticism is part of the job when you’re a coach, so Coach O and every other coach across the nation is used to dealing with people calling for them to lose their jobs.
For now, though, Coach O has one fan back on his side, and another win this weekend will only help to soothe the anger he was dealing with after the Troy loss.
