re: My Opinion: Not Happy About This Staff

Where is the coaching excellence? Vision? Plan? Stability? Steele is a great recruiter and terrible DC. Orgeron is a great recruiter but has never been a great coach. At a school like LSU, isn't it better to provide great coaching? Les believes that great recruiting will get us over the top. Now we know why he was passing on great DCs - they were not great recruiters

Without looking it up, please name me the DC for Georgia, Florida, Arkansas, Ole Miss, Ohio State, Michigan State, TCU, Clemson, Stanford, Wisconsin.

These teams all had top 20 defenses this past year. I bet you can't name more than 2 or 3. Point being, there are very few "big name" DCs out there to begin with.

We got a guy that Lord Saban saw fit to hire twice. A guy many believed was poised to be the next DC at Bama once Smart takes a head coaching gig. A guy who can recruit with the best of them. How about we give him a game or two before we criticize.
