WE DON'T KNOW WHO THIS IS. BUT WE LOVE THEM.
Someone's written a song about the Orgeron. It's brilliant. We love it. Please tell us who did it so we can name our first child after them...shortly before presenting the child as a ritual sacrifice to the Orgeron for our insolence. (Grande HT: Rajin' Cajun Rebel.)
Again, here it is. Listen to it now.

Yoeeooeeohohoooohooo, hoooaaahhh, hooaah...football.

I know it’ll never happen, but how amazing would it be to be watching the Egg Bowl or whatever, and hear the Ole Miss student section repeating the chorus over and over? Like soccer fans singing “Vindaloo.”
Rebels fans: do this. please. it needs to happen. no one’s bigger than the game. do it for the kids. and the troops.

For your consideration.
> Hired as an SEC head coach despite having minimal experience even as a coordinator of some kind: Check.
> Sounds kinda dumb every time he opens his mouth: Check.
> Big dumb meatheaded vending-machine-damaging “motivational tactics”: Check.
> Hailed as a terrific recruiter, yet somehow manages to do nothing with that talent: Check.
> Humiliating losses to Sylvester Croom’s Bulldogs: Check.
Congratulations, Ole Miss, Ed Orgeron is [NAME REDACTED], only with a nice big pair of Chuck Amato tits. Good times.

Do not taunt the Orgeron. If the Orgeron starts smoking – run away, seek shelter.

Now Doug, let’s not get carried away. All of your check points are correct, except for the third one. He’s only had one recruiting class (the first one is tough to count being that he only had a month to recruit) …you can’t exactly expect immediate results. This isn’t NCAA 2007; it’s rare for freshman to be immediate impact players, and even more rare for 15 true freshman and 6 juco signees from the 2006 class to play and make a winning season. So let’s be realistic here.
That being said, there’s only 2 teams in the country that have played more freshman than ole miss at this point. Temple is number one with 19. And…you guessed it…[NAME REDACTED]’s Illnois is second with 17.
So thus far, your comparison to [NAME REDACTED] is more spot on than you may have originally thought.
i’m going back to my tears now.
orson—glad you liked the song. i laugh to keep from crying, as they say…

Great, now I’ll be singing the Coach O song in my head all day.

I have listened to this thing like 10 times since Runnin Rebel posted it in that comment thread earlier today. Trying not to laugh my ass off at work has been quite the challenge.

Doug, I really hope you have your will in order. You are living on borrowed time speaking ill of The Orgeron.
Anyone want to take bets on how long Doug has to live? I’ve got my money on 36 more minutes.

Brilliant………….Orson, I see a new t-shirt in your EDSBS swag line. Put me down for two.

With Georgia coming to town this weekend, Orgeron’s got way bigger problems to worry about than little ol’ me. But if he wants to head on down U.S. 78 and rumble, me and my Wu-Tang sword will be waiting for him.

Colonel Reb ain’t the only one cryin’ after that. Laughed. My. Bag. Off.

Dear Lord,
Forget all the stuff about money and world peace… just let Coach O keep his job forever!
That is all… Amen

That was awesome…. Especially the Brent Schaeffer line.

That is just drop-dead hysterical.
Now, if somebody could just find a recording of “Diggin’ Up Bear” from the mid-80’s Mark and Brian show in Birmingham…

I think we have an offical theme song for EDSBS.
I’ve got the damn thing stuck in my head.

Try explaining why you are listening to this song at work to 3 women and a couple of dudes that don’t know who The Orgeron is — and then explain why you are laughing so hard that it hurts.

Any chance we can replace the Orgeron photo with the one of Cookie Monster? They almost sound alike….
That song will now ring in my head for the rest of the afternoon.
“Footbaw!”

Coach O = Cojo?
Yeah, I can see him as a big, rabid dog.
by Pappy on Sep 28, 2006 3:48 PM EDT reply actions
Imagine Orgeron and Bob Davie in the broadcast booth together, calling a game. If you played a drinking game and had to do a shot every time a FOOTBAW was uttered, you’d be dead of alcohol poisoning before the first quarter was up.

Admit it. how many of you were singing along even before the “everybody” invitation –
I liked the poorly stifled laughter in the background.

Funniest thing I’ve heard in years. My wife told me never to sing it again, ‘cause she can’t stop laughing.

Seconded. The link isn’t working anymore.

The artist’s company probably got wise to it being hosted on the site (probably w/o permission) when their web traffic jumped 1000 fold this afternoon.
So sad i missed it.

Vernon fixed the link on his blog. Head over there to get the song.

Just thought I’d note that Coach O’s wikipedia page has now been properly updated. I hope he doesn’t use my IP to track me down and whoop my ass.

This song explains the book ‘The Orgeron of Species’.
Some cattle scientist in Mississippi figured out that Orgeron is the missing link.
