Any interest in Ed Orgeron?

[Tom McKrackin]

Probably won't make it past this year according to sporting news.  Could make for a nice bounce back hire.  Any thoughts?

And we think Littrell mumbles!

I'd rather have Tom Herman.

Coach O is 60 years old.   Sounds like a more expensive Dan McCarney.   I don't think he would have a lot of fire in his belly to make UNT better.

But if he's interested, talk to him.

[DeepGreen]

How old is Ed?  I'd take him.  You'd have all of South Louisiana to recruit from.

That said, I don't know if a "registered coonass" like Ed would fit in up in Northern Texas.  Those people are a different breed.  And.........not near enough Cajun food up there.

This is the kind of hire I think we will need to pick this program up ASAP.  Tom Herman is another good name.  We need somebody with proven success in D1 coaching.  Not forever but until we can win at .500%.  

[Wag Tag]

I would rather see a successful head G5 coach that coached at the P5 level and has been let go.

[untjim1995]

If you are against Briles, you should be against Orgeron. Both have commanded ships that have had numerous cases of football players sexually assaulting women.

[akriesman]

Strong no to Orgeron.      I also just see an expensive Dan McCarney V2.    On a side note, I could not possibly listen to his press conferences.

[Withers940]

I dont care if the Hamburglar is our next head coach as long as we start winning on a consistent basis. 

 

If Coach O was our next head coach would he always end an interview with "Geaux Mean Green"?

[UNTLifer]

No thanks.

Does Ed Oregon know Tony Denton?

Any relation to Joe or Hannah Montana?

While I’m a hard pass on Orgeron, he’s not 30 games under .500 like Dan was and he actually materially contributed to his national championship ring. 

[Cr1028]

Ed Oregon sounds like he used to work with Ron Jeremy or Ron Burgundy.

[UNT Texas Hooligan]

Absolutely. Just watching some of his speeches for his players makes me want to run through a wall for him. Also, we would rake in 4 and maybe 5 star recruits and P5 transfers just from his name and reputation alone. That would be the kind of hire that changes a program.  

[Greenrex]

No but, thanks for the suggestion.

Sorry, I meant to say hell no.

Exactly!  Just like the last coach fired from LSU transformed the next program that hired him!

. . . Oh, wait.

[Cr1028]

A more expensive version of Frank Wilson. Great Recruiter.

Xs and Os?

You obviously weren't paying attention. With Les Miles, KU did get an influx of 3, 4, and a couple of 5 star players. While they finished with a 3-9 record, they were extremely competitive and took many teams to the wire, including UT, if not for a huge defensive blunder and long field goal to win the game. So thanks for making my point

Uh huh.  And where are they now?  How did things work out with that hire in the end?

No offense, but your point stinks.

[DeepGreen]

I’ll say one thing, Ed Orgeron would recruit Louisiana well.  Right smack dab in La Tech country too!

[Cr1028]

The last time Coach O recruited for anything lower than a P5 school McNeese State was the preseason favorite to win our conference. Coincidentally his employer at the time, Nicholls State, was also a member of our conference.

Has nothing to do with the question posed, but whatever happened to Hamburglar? He had me wanting McDonald's everyday as a kid.
