The Legend of Ed Orgeron Grows: ‘The day I can’t whoop a man’s ass is the day I don’t get out of bed’

The legend of LSU head coach Ed Orgeron is growing by the minute.

ESPN has put together a feature that includes some of the greatest tales about Coach Orgeron, and they are fantastic.

First, check out this story about Orgeron at Syracuse:

Kyle Fetterly, Syracuse head equipment manager

One year, Syracuse head coach Paul Pasqualoni decided he wanted to start two-a-day workouts earlier, so he scheduled practice for 5:45 a.m. That meant the equipment staff had to arrive at 4 a.m. Sure enough, Orgeron was right there with them.

Orgeron was always the first guy in, full of energy, and he’d work out on the field just before practice — sit-ups, push-ups, chin-ups, squat thrusts.
