Respect or no respect

• The funnier part was that former Ole Miss coach Ed Orgeron stood on the field for a few minutes during the North's practice on Monday. A police officer (not the same one shadowing Saban) tapped Orgeron on the shoulder and asked him to leave the field and go into the bleachers. Orgeron and North coach Lane Kiffin are buddies as they both coached together at USC. It probably was the explanation Orgeron tried to give to the cop.
That excuse didn't fly as Orgeron was tossed. Who knew there would be a double standard in favor of a coach that lost to UL-Monroe?
