Grass Not Greener

Rumor has it that Orgeron doesn't like ball caps to be worn backwards.

Well, who can blame him?

Just my dumbass thought here-- O was not happy with JJ recruiting -- maybe JJ can't get 4-5 star guys but he was great getting 2-3 star folks for us. He left TT same month he got there for LSU. Upside for us is his fan base in NO and south La. but his bouncing from Tech to TT to LSU seems sketchy. I would hate to see him at ULL or SM. This is me at my ambiguous worst.

Greatness!

We certainly think alike on this one other than the "sketchy" part. I think it is much more sketchy as to why they didn't just fire him outright. IMO, there is more to this story.

On the radio yesterday, an LSU guy Fox was interviewing said Juluke's wife has cancer so he was "reassigned within the athletic department" instead of fired so they could keep their medical insurance until he gets another job. Thoughts and prayers for the Juluke family.

Thanks for the tidbit, will do!

Getting another job may be academic unless his employer's insurance covers pre-existing conditions. Of course working for the State in either place may give him coverage. Hope everything works out.

Thank you Dawg06 for the information. Coach O saved Juluke the cost of Cobra for the next five months and hopefully finds employment in that time period.

All employer's insurance (if group insurance) covers preexisting conditions. That's been the law for many years and was before Obamacare.

Juluke is on contract for another year.

Juluke is on contract for another year.

Thanks. But if terminated he would still have to pay COBRA.

[faninmonroe]

i have seen companies offer medical coverage as part of a seperatiin agreement.

Or offer to pay a percentage of cobra expense for the employee and family.

dawg06--thanks for this info-- suddenly this becomes a totally different story-- Oregon has figured a way to help him without talking about his personal life-- he wont have the time/dedication for coaching with what he is going thru. Well put--thought and prayers...

[StrayDawg]

All the best to the Juluke family. Would love to have him back at Tech if it works out, but he has bigger things to think about right now.
