Found this on another bored;
“1991 as an assistant at Miami, (wikipedia) “a "permanent injunction of protection" was granted to a woman by a Dade County court against Orgeron prohibiting "any act of domestic violence." Orgeron was ordered into a 26-week domestic violence counseling program.”
In 1992, still an assistant at Miami, he was arrested in a bar fight in Baton Rouge. You know something is wrong when you’ve done five years at Miami, then get back into coaching after a year hiatus at Nichols State.
At Southern Cal earlier this decade, Orgeron was THE recruiting coordinator while Reggie Bush made off with that $100K.
At Ole Miss, Orgeron’s very first meeting with the team, he referenced his own new players as MF’s. In the heat of the moment, that’s not even acceptable. Would it be okay for a history professor to tell his class, first day, “All you MF’s are going to learn a lot in this history class”?
After Hurricane Katrina, with Tulane’s program in shambles (before they were able to share facilities with Louisiana Tech, and thus keep playing the season), Orgeron called Greg Davis’ son, and Tulane assistant, and tried to begin poaching players for Ole Miss from the Tulane program. Davis turned him in. Nothing ever came of it after Orgeron pretended he didn’t know it was a violation.
Highly ticked Tulane head coach Chris Scelfo said of Orgeron, "there's people in our business who do not belong in our business". Scelfo was correct.
At Tennessee all the sudden - Orgeron having only been there a year - six “minor” NCAA violations for the Vols.
Finally, after leaving Tennessee, Orgeron called early recruits at Tennessee, trying to recruit them to USC…after they were already technically enrolled at Tennessee. Had he forgotten the rules he had already learned after his own Tulane scandal?
What's next?”

I like his funny voice, but concede that he may be the reigning champion of dirty recruiting. When you get your Heisman winner off the transfer portal auction block, everything smells of corruption. See: Cam Newton.

Ed O is an alcoholic
Jan 3, 2020, 2:09 PM
|
|
Ed is an open alcoholic, has been dry for years now, talks about gettng his life straight which he did. He answers questions directly about his behavior in the past, no sugar coating.
LSU fans disliked him much, then while living in LA he turned his life around. Fans were cautiously happy when he was hired as DL coach.
In recent years O has been an excellent citizen. He puts family first, requiring assts. to work less, telling them to spend time with their families.
But he still uses "MF" in the locker room like most coaches.

In my opinion there is never an excuse for domestic violence

[ in reply to Ed O is an alcoholic ] |

I don’t care if you drink too much have a drug problem etc... it is an unforgivable sin in my view and should follow you your entire life. I am glad to hear it said that he is not drinking anymore but that does not bury his actions as an abuser of his family and loved ones. You never, ever hurt your family by physically assaulting them, its a disgrace!
Go Tigers!!!

Wow. No redemption at your house. So I suppose if one of your kids screws up in the manner you find disgraceful then he/she might as well kill himself/herself because there will never, ever be forgiveness from you. Doesn’t matter what he/she does to change his/her life

If Ed O has successfully overcome alcoholism, he should be commended. This is a great story. If LSU wins, I'm sure we will hear more about it which could benefit a lot of people.
I hope the domestic violence stuff is untrue.

Could be wrong, but Ed actually has a rep as a clean recruiter...which is very much unlike most coaches that have coached in the SEC aside from maybe Urban Meyer.
This latest bit of LSU getting involved with Jordan Burch at the last moment raised some eyebrows, but you tend to not see stuff like that with his teams.
I actually like the man, as a human being. And he's pretty open about the problems in his past and seems to have grown up a bunch and learned from them. All you can ask, really.

Drunk when he beat women, drunk when slipping Reggie Bush cash, drunk when taking advantage of a natural catastrophe by calling other teams enrolled players, drunk when calling his brand new players MFers, drunk when he previously failed as a coach...and heck, just basically drunk every day of his adult life...until this year when Macaulay Culkin came on as a QB. When they drop back into obscurity next year, then I'm betting he'll be drunk again.
So it's all good.

Wow... As a Clemson fan I am shocked at some of the things I'm seeing people post on here.

Sorry, I would hope most of us are above that, especially when it is over a game.

This is sleazy, Clemson fans.
You don't know Ed's story.
It is so interesting that you claim to have such "class" in your "family." I've red the boreds for every team we have played and for every SEC team (whether or not we played that team). You are below average when it comes to high standards and behavior.
And in fairness, I will say that LSU fans tend to be well below average on that measure. We just don't proclaim our virtue the way you do.
The cognitive dissonance is hurting my head.

going to go back nearly 30 years to find indiscretions on somebody who obviously has turned his life around and become a pretty likeable guy?
This new century trend of destroying somebody's entire life and not granting second chances is f'ing nonsense. I've never had a DUI or domestic charge of any kind, but I know a bad seed when I see one and Ed Flintstone ain't it. This is beneath us, Clemson brethren.

I'm glad I wasn't the only one with that sentiment! Everyone has a skeleton or more in the closet and would make much better choices today versus 30yrs ago or as a young 20yr old. The extent of the domestic violence isn't known as we were not there. Obviously not condoning it but we don't need spread hate mongering quips that someone posted on another board.

I hear ya...but abusing your family is an unforgivable sin. I am not a perfect man. I work hard to improve and grow everyday. But if he was abusing his family and loved ones he deserves all the dirt that is thrown on him. Good for him that he has improved his life but nothing will take away from the damage he obviously did to his family. Just one man’s opinion.

A couple of years ago, there was talk he tried to strong arm some Louisiana high school coaches about influencing their players toward LSU, but then the fuss died down.
I have mixed feelings about EdO. There are a boatload of worse guys in the business.
College football is a very dirty business. The money explosion has taken it to another level. I hope someone writes an expose that blows the doors off of everything.
Dabo is why I became a Clemson fan. He is different.

there was never, afaik, any allegations that O physically abused women or kids. He was a known barroom brawler and threatened, but he remains close to his kid from his first marriage.
at LSU's last open date he encouraged his coaches to spend time with their families when most teams' assts were out recruiting. He and wife went to watch their twins play a game out of town.
