This isn't an O pumping post
Well O has been the recruiting coordinator for the past 2 years and many of the coaches on the staff remain. There really isn't any excuse for O to miss on multiple in state kids that are a position of need.
Recruiting is his strong suit right? He should be cleaning up right now since he's the HC, not missing on kids in baton rouge.

Maybe people need to take their purple and gold glasses off and consider, MAYBE, that not every Louisiana kid wants to play at LSU.

What is LSU's class rated right now? Is it not Top 10? Top 5 even at this point? That's with a fired head coach and staff upheaval, and O has maintained this class.
Also, let's not pretend that Les Miles had not already lost Dylan Moses' commitment. Moses did not even have LSU listed in his top 5 this year with Miles still coaching the team. Coach O can't magically FORCE kids like Moses and Allen to come here. Tell me what coach was going to keep those kids from going to Alabama save Nick fricking Saban returning here?
The argument that O must not be a good recruiter because LSU didn't sign two recruits, that likely weren't coming here regardless, after being HC for less than a month, is goddamn idiotic.

This is not Ed O's fault.
Moses showed his lack of loyalty to Baton Rouge and LSU when he left U High to go to IMG.
From that point on he was going to Bama.
It is said it was because of the LM firing but that's BS.
He played the recruitment system like many do.
Shae Patterson was at Calvary Baptist for two years before he went to IMG? Decommitted from Arizona, committed to OM and then went to IMG. Was never going to play for LSU.
Notice a pattern? Conspiracy theorists sure would.

Except he was only recruiting coordinator this year and had to hand that off to Craig once he took over as interim head coach.

Do you remember Miles' first recruiting class as the LSU HC?

Dude O is locking up a top 5 class with a little trouble at LBer. And any coach in the sec will struggle vs bama RT now especially at LBer. Sucks but this isn't on O. Look at Herman and UT. They are struggling big time and we should consider ourselves lucky to see this staff doing the work that they are. Amazing job. Hell qb alone tops the past decade. Best safety class by far.. Dline looking to be one of the best. I'm starting to feel like it was a blessing in disguise to miss on Herman and let O keep the staff hire Canada and see what happens.
