Ed Orgeron Signals Coaching Return as Analysts Weigh Potential Fits

The 2019 LSU title winner has not coached since 2021.

Overview

  • Orgeron told WAFB he is ready to coach again and will pursue whatever role he views as the best opportunity.
  • CBS Sports identified Arkansas, Oklahoma State and UCLA as the most plausible current openings for him.
  • Oklahoma State’s vacancy follows Mike Gundy’s removal three games into the 2025 season, creating a high-profile job on the market.
  • A Tulane scenario is framed as a hypothetical given Orgeron’s Louisiana roots, with no opening there at present.
  • He has drawn a reported $17 million LSU buyout since departing after 2021, and no offers or commitments have been reported as he considers options that could include an assistant role.
