The voice is Cajun, gravelly, unceasing, indestructible and more unintelligible with each rise in octave as he races up and down the field rallying players. It is unmistakable and invariably the first thing heard at Trojans practice.

It belongs to Ed Orgeron, 43, who still belongs to USC for another few days.

"It's natural," said the Trojans' demanding but popular defensive line coach and recruiting coordinator, who will devote full attention to his new post as University of Mississippi head coach once the Orange Bowl is over.

"Yeah, but I think he's worked on his accent," said University of Miami defensive line coach Greg Mark, who played and coached at Miami during Orgeron's time on staff (1988-92). "Before, you couldn't understand but every four or five words. Now it's every two or three."

The Galliano, La., native has worked on something else since then:

His life.
