Ed Orgeron has gone on record saying he’s open to a return to LSU, regardless of the capacity.
The feeling seems to be mutual.
According to a report from CBS Sports’ Matt Zenitz, LSU is “open” to bringing Orgeron back as an assistant coach if the Tigers were to hire Lane Kiffin away from Ole Miss. Zenitz’s reporting uses the phrasing “if/when” as it relates to a potential Kiffin hire. Kiffin is said to be considering the Tigers, though he has said throughout the week he is focused on the Rebels’ regular-season finale.
Orgeron and Kiffin have a history of working together. They worked on the same staff at USC from 2001-04. When Kiffin was the head coach for a season at Tennessee, Orgeron was his associate head coach.
In 2015, Orgeron joined the Tigers as a defensive line coach. In 2016, he took over the program as its head coach. Orgeron went 51-20 in 6 years with the Tigers, winning the College Football Playoff National Championship in 2019.
He has been out of coaching since parting ways with LSU after the 2021 season.
“Yeah, I’d consider it,” Orgeron said last month when asked if he’d be open to a reunion. “I love LSU. I still got my home in Baton Rouge. I loved when I was coaching for Coach (Les) Miles, being the defensive line coach. I love the Tigers, and if I’m getting back into coaching, for sure I’d consider it. No doubt.”
