Pat Flood (@rebarcock) passed away 9/21/25. Pat played a huge role in encouraging the devolopmemt of this site and donated the very first dollar to get it started. Check the thread at the top of the board for the obituary and please feel free to pay your respects there. I am going to get all the content from that thread over to his family so they can see how many people really cared for Pat outside of what they ever knew. Pat loved to tell stories and always wanted everyone else to tell stories. I think a great way we can honor Pat is to tell a story in his thread (also pinned at the top of the board).

Offensive coordinator? His entire coaching career has been defense hasn't it? Dline coach at various stops and d-coordinator at others (besides his head coaching).
He could do it.
Going to tank their recruiting class, they could hire Napier now and let him coach out the season with UL
So he won the Natty what, 3-4 years ago and now he gets canned? Is there more to the story?
I get it , the dude is making $9mm a year and thats a lot of money for a 9-8 record your last 17 games. However, its only been 2 years removed from a Natty. Something smells a little fishy to me. Seems like there should be more to the story

Just missing a continual stream of OSU 2nd teamers and transfers.
I kind of get it. But I look at my school Clemson and Coach Dabo and I just can't see any scenario in which he would be run off 2 years after winning a Natty. He can basically stay as long as he wants and it would take a lot more than what coach O has done to get him fired.
They will get him for clause.

That is fuckin awesome.
The difference is that coach O won 1 title, in one magical season where he had a once in a lifetime talent at qb who had one of the goat years at that position...and it has been downhill ever since.
Good points. I do see the side that if you are paying a guy $9mm you pretty much expect to be undefeated
He pretty much lucked into his title because of Joe Burrow, sort of like Gene Chizik with Cam Newton.

This is simply recruiting. Nothing more, nothing less.
Dilly dilly.

Shows all of us the value of a Shelly Meyer.

Well she did save his life from that heart attack at that hotel in Atlanta when he woke up gasping for air. She has earned some loyalty from him.
Hopefully Coach Meyer can keep his fingers on the keyboard and mouse, prepping innovative game plans.
Obviously this world needs more good people like Shelly and Urban.
Phil Fulmer thinks that math adds up.
The perfect storm of things lined up for the 2019 team. It wasn't anything to do with O's coaching "excellence".
O has always been an elite recruiter, but terrible X's & O's coach. He's a position coach at best, in the cerebral sense of coaching.
He's always had red flags everywhere he goes, and his judgement is questionable at best.
Too much Title IX stuff piling up at LSU. That school in its entirety is ripe for a loss of institutional control charge.

Yep. Shooters shoot.
This is a perfect analogy. Although I do like that fat bastard and wanted him at lsu. He couldn't fucking care he is getting young pussy

Does anybody else want to see this chick before we condemn ole Coach O? She might have been irresistible. I think that is important information before we pass judgement.
All depends on how far along, 1-4 months free game and can bare back that shit. 5-9 and she got that belly and it's like banging a plumber.
Damn, the dude is a real life coaching Kenny Powers.
He never struck me as a guy that could run a top flight program.
Depending on how he spends his money the next 5 years, he could write his very own 30 for 30, "The Rise and Fall of Coach O".
