Matt House didn’t just screw us in scheme and play calling, but also recruiting

Who hired House?

Who fired him? Who hired Frank and Davis? We can play this game all day. Mistakes may have been made, but it's time to fix them.

Umm, you don’t think the head coach or recruiting coordinator have s say so on the defensive side of the ball?

Never said the HC or recruiting coordinator don’t have a say so. I believe they lay out their vision and it’s up to the coaches to execute. House didn’t execute

Give it a rest. Look forward.

You see guys like Frank, Davis and Hankton grinding on the trail for the offensive side but I don’t recall a single photo or mention of a defensive coach recruiting these last two years.

This was my response for the "give them more time, they only had 39 scholarship players two yrs ago." Obviously that did not deter the offensive staff from building a juggernaut like it did the Defensive side.

Didn’t O hire Davis? As he was interim HC for the bowl game.

So it's no longer ed's fault? At what point does this shite become Brian Kelly's fault?

Sounds like he did the coach O thing and let it fall apart

Go back to House’ roots at UK. Stoops was an excellent DC/HC and they took time to build with 2-4* recruits and let them develop because expectations were lower for football.
When House was in the NFL college football completely changed in terms of transfer portal, NIL, etc. managing that means recruiting becomes that much harder because you have to recruit your own players week in and week out. Then recruit for roster turnover. Does that mean House was a bad coach? He had the 22nd ranked defense the year before. That was coming off of having 39 scholarship players on the roster. They did pretty good.
Ty Mathieu RAVED about what a great coach he was from their time with the Chiefs. I’ll take his opinion over tRants in evaluating the capability of a coach to teach. Ultimately, you have to be able to recruit, teach, scheme, etc. He had some adversity this season with injuries and losses of players. That in and of itself showed that he was not good at that part of coaching nor was he good at recruiting. His in-game coaching the season before was pretty damn good as LSU was a better second half team than first for whatever reason.
