LOOK: Ed Orgeron visits Miami, works with Hall of Famer

Former LSU head coach Ed Orgeron has been out enjoying retirement for the past several months, but could not miss the opportunity to talk football with NFL Hall of Famer and Miami defensive analyst Jason Taylor. During a trip to Miami, the former assistant worked on technique with the coaches around him.

Ed Orgeron worked at Miami as an assistant coach from 1988-92, working with the defensive line before Jason Taylor reached the college level. While Taylor did not attend the University of Miami, he made his name in the city during three stints with the Miami Dolphins over his NFL career.

New Miami defensive backs coach Jahmile Addae witnessed the two talking strategy and took pictures of their interesting exchange in the meeting room.

“Still perfecting his craft,” Addae posted. “Can’t cheat success, it takes what it takes”

Orgeron also appears to be sporting an orange shirt, along with his khaki shorts, which might have a Miami Hurricanes logo on it. Although he denied rumors he would ever help Nick Saban and Alabama, it appears he was willing to lend a helping hand for Mario Cristobal’s staff.

Ed Orgeron’s future

Now that he’s no longer employed as a college football coach and is collecting plenty of buyout money from LSU, former Tigers’ head man Ed Orgeron’s future plans are unspecified. Does Coach O want to spend more time on the beach in Destin, Florida? Does he perhaps want to join a sports broadcasting network as an analyst for the 2022 season?

To Bruce Feldman of The Athletic, he feels that Orgeron will most likely do some TV work during the 2022 college football season. Joining The Paul Finebaum Show last month, Feldman was asked what he thought was next for Coach O – and the reporter went in-depth on what the former head coach could possibly be doing this coming fall.

“My guess is he is probably going to do TV in some form next year,” Feldman said of Orgeron. “I don’t know if that means he’ll be a colleague of yours at ESPN or where he ends up. I think the thing that will be interesting with him is he has a ton of stories and is obviously a colorful character. I think a lot of times – as you know – in TV, it’s can you tell stories that people remember and how do you feel about you?

“People will say he has this heavy accent, and can’t understand him, and this and that, and how is it going to translate to TV, but some of the better sports analysts – like at FOX is David Ortiz – is not what it sounds like from a news anchor. I think ultimately for Orgeron, it’s probably going to be where does he feel most comfortable and probably what kind of position they put him in.”
