myhousekey Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 (edited) Slow news day so figured I'd pass this along.. Saints hire Orgeron as defensive line coach by Mike Triplett, The Times-Picayune Wednesday January 23, 2008, 11:41 AM MOBILE, ALA. -- The Saints have hired former Ole Miss Coach Ed Orgeron as their defensive line coach. The South Louisiana native will replace Marion Hobby, who left to become a defensive coordinator at Duke University earlier this month. Orgeron, 46, has spent his entire 23-year coaching career in the college ranks. But he said he has always been interested in making the leap to the NFL.

rajncajn Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 Wasn't Orgeron one of the front-runners for a college head coaching job? Tulane possibly? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly not sure since I haven't been following his off-season that closely. I did read that he was a possible candidate for the LSU DC.
