YOUR SPECIOUS BUT ENTERTAINING RUMOR OF THE DAY...

“So I looked, and behold, a pale horse. And the name of him who sat on it was Death, and Hades followed with him.”

Here is the Memphis link

Can we confirm that he hasn’t coached Chad Henne? Somwhere along the way?

When I saw you had a link with the word “runs” – I thought for sure that it would be a Paterno reference.

He’s no Dick Biddle.

Would this qualify Ole Piss for the first points towards the ’07 Fulmer Cup?

After the fight the Orgeron made the dentist fix his own teeth…in his frontyard…using only caulk and the glass from his own broken window destroyed by the li’l Orgerons, Thor and Deinonychus.

I hereby bestow upon Orgeron the title of Unfrozen Cave Man Football Coach. Every day it looks more and more like he’s every bit as big a meathead as [NAME REDACTED, FLORIDA VERSION], only with even less talent to underuse.

Man, I hope they don’t fire this guy! You can’t pay for fun like this! From being a questionable coach to suburban pariah… we’re getting first class humor.

Wait…the neighbor is a dentist who played football at MSU?

Isn’t that kind of like going to fashion design school at Flordia? I mean, do people even HAVE teeth in Starkville? Something’s fishy here…

Sounds like those two kids need to spend some quality time with Ricky Bobby’s mama.

Reading about stuff like this is incentive to get up in the mornings. I just wish my students had any idea who The Orgeron was—this is the kind of stuff that lecture joke dreams are made of (you should see how much mileage I’ve gotten out of the Joey Porter Oeuvre).

/damn kids today, with their lack of football knowledge

This looks like the thinking of a head coach who’s capable of shit talking an entire fraternity with team in tow and threatening to whoop some frat ass.

I heard that when The Orgeron comes home from work he drives through all of his neighbor’s yards throwing turf in every possible direction for the sole purpose of letting them know that he is not to be trifled with.

This looks like the thinking of a head coach who’s capable of shit talking an entire fraternity with team in tow and threatening to whoop some frat ass.

Gold Cool Hand, pure Gold

Speaking of the Orgeron, what does his team look like this year? I know their record is awful, but is it a “coach is pissing games away” awful or “our players are so awful Ditka/Bryant/Rockne/Leahy/Ara/insert coaching god here couldn’t win with them”? I’m hoping it’s the latter, because the disappearance of the Orgeron would lead to an awful, awful day for me and my friends.

Andrew—I don’t think you can put it on one thing in particular. There are several factors:

1. We are so thin at the DL position right now, that we actually have a converted running back getting snaps at DL now. That’s never good…injuries have KILLED us.

2. We’re young. Schaffer has only been on campus since August, and our combined stats from last year in the WR core is 1 catch for -1 yard. We’ve made a lot of stupid mistakes that have cost points, and much of that has to do with young kids who’ve never played college ball before. We’re playing 15-20 freshman a game.

3. We lack senior leadership. Yes, Pat Willis is a great leader, but we really only have him on defense and Wicker on offense to provide leadership. That makes a difference with the “little things.”

4. Did I mention that we’re playing 15-20 freshmen per game? Who can do that and win in the SEC? Yes, Cutcliffe won some games, but he didn’t recruit to save his ass (literally) and our cubbard is pitifully bare.

5. There have been some coaching mistakes, but the other side of that is—that’s going to happen when you’ve got the learning curve that O has…it’s a gamble taking someone who was never a head coach or coordinator. but his recruiting was the draw. will it pay off? I think, and hope, so, but only time will tell.

6. There’s been accusations of a lack of effort. My first home game that I can make will be this weekend, and I’ll judge that for myself.

7. B/c of our lack of DL, teams can just run all over us. Wake only passed the ball FIVE TIMES! We then fall behind, and end up relying on the pass. B/c of reasons already stated, that’s not exactly a good thing.

There’s more to say, but this has been long enough. Suffice to say, there are problems all over, but if we can just keep the commits we have now, we can really turn things around next season.

Guys, this stuff never gets old. Orgeron has grown to proportions where its unfair. If this were a wrestling match and Orgeron took on Norris, Vin Diesel, and Bill Brasky all at once, it’d be like Andre the Giant fighting little mexican guys. Work the knees!

I heard that the neighbor made fun of O’s nipple rings. Mis.Take.

Orgeron….French for bat-shit crazy.

Can we get a “Nobody Fucks With The Orgeron” t-shirt?

An Excerpt:
Ed Orgeron, whose name is French for Batshit Crazy, became the 35th football coach at Ole Miss o­n December 16th, 2004. And even though America laughed at the absurd hire, Mississippi fans were truly excited to see what Crazy Ed might do.

Then darkness fell over the great state of Mississippi, as news of Orgeron’s violent past came to the surface. The shirtless titty twisting wonder was arrested twice for bar fights in the early 90’s, and accusations of domestic abuse had Rebel fans questioning why this demon was hired. But much to the relief of the Ole Miss faithful, 2005 and 2006 has shown us that Orgeron is not capable of beating anyone.

While we’re on the topic of of Ole Miss coaches, could somebody please tell me what Lions Asst. coach “pantless Joe” Cullen did when he got arrested in Oxford? It couldn’t have just been drunk in public. If I got arrested everytime I was drunk in public I’d being doing life in Pelican Bay on my 500th strike.

No, Orgeron is French for “terrible mistake.”

RaginCajunRebel: The Dentist did not play at MSU.

Plenty of guys come in off their shift at the mill, check in with the wife and kids, then go over and kick their neighbor’s ass. Very few of them get to coach major college football though.

Robert Kayak? That’s a new one (assuming the reference was intentional) — I am acquainted with his son (Jr.) through work down in the ATL, I’ll have to start using that on him.

That said, this story seems to set off my B.S. detector, though it has certainly been fooled before.

to answer the above question, Cullen passed out in a Subway restaurant in Oxford.

From Ed Orgeron’s office: “Stop hatin, Start Participatin” or I’ll whip everyone’s ass on this board. That is all.

Are you posting pictures of Ed Orgeron or Ken Shamrock? Because I’m beginning to believe that the Orgeron moonlights as a UFC fighter to let off some steam.

Mrreason, thank you for the info. I thought maybe his wife took him to Applebees for a surprise party where they put up a placque commemorating his coaching career and he stripped naked to the horror of everyone present.

This rumor appears to be true. After reading about this rumor yesterday, I contacted a friend of mine who works in the Athletics Department at Ole Miss.

He confirmed that there was an "incident " between Orgeron and his neighbor, that the neighbor is a dentist in Oxford, that a restraining order had been taken out, and that it would most likely hit the press soon.

He did not confirm any details of the “incident” – whether the altercation was physical or just verbal, what it was about, or whether a door was kicked in.
