As compelling and electric as his personality is, there really is no coming back for Ed Orgeron after this particular dig.
College GameDay was in Austin, Texas for Week 2 ahead of the ranked showdown between the No.9 Texas Longhorns and No.6 LSU Tigers. During the segment, cameras spotted, as they always do, a mockery of epic proportions.
This particular one, however, was directed towards the Tigers head coach, and it featured a HIGHLY sensitive topic — the final season of “Game of Thrones,” which most fans of the critically acclaimed HBO series believed to be abysmal compared to the near-perfect product of past seasons.
No offense, Reddit, but literally anybody could’ve come up with a better version to that of David Benioff and D.B. Weiss. The show’s architects, were, for some reason, perfectly fine with transitioning from careful, nuanced story-telling (which made the show so darn awesome) to a rushed time-jumping mess for the show’s most important season…and it virtually made no sense.
If you’re Coach O, this one burns.
If you are as upset as I am about that ending, don’t blame HBO… Blame David Benioff and DB Weiss. HBO asked them to make 2 more seasons but they refused so they could hurry up the show and go make their Star Wars movies… HBO’s only fault was not firing them… pic.twitter.com/S5Zn2eb67H

Let’s hope, for the Tigers sake, that Coach O can bounce back from this derision — perhaps like Jon Snow came back from the dead in Season 6 — and is able to lead LSU to victory on Saturday night.
