Coach O's notable recruits

Keep reading idiots poo-poo'ing CEO's classes at Ole Miss. He brought in some great players there too, like he has at every spot he's been.
It's one thing if you don't like his offense/defense philosophy as HC and are disappointed with the hire.
But it's downright stupid to question his consistent ability to pull in top talent as a recruiter.
At Miami, he notably recruited HOFer DT Warren Sapp and DT Cortez Kennedy.
At USC, he recruited NFL players DT Shaun Cody, DT Mike Patterson, Manuel Wright, DT Sedrick Ellis, DE Lawrence Jackson, DE Jeff Schweiger
At Ole Miss, as HC, he closed the deal on DE Greg Hardy, WR Dexter McCluster, OG Rishaw Johnson and 5 star players OG Michael Oher and DT Jerrelle Powe
At Tenn, he helped recruit LB Jerod Askew and DB Janzen Jackson (who said "I love him (CEO).")
At USC, in his second stint, he recruited 5 star recruits DT Kenny Bigelow, and QB Max Browne. He was also the main recruiter for high 4 star recuits DE Greg Towsend Jr, WR Markeith Ambles, and CB Chris Hawkins. He assisted Monte Kiffin bringing in the 2015 #1 overall NFL pick DE Leonard Williams.
At LSU, he was the main recruiter for DE Arden Key, DT Rashard Lawrence, CB Savion Smith, DT Ed Alexander and OG Donavaughn Campbell, just to name a few.
This class, he is the main recruiter for LSU commit DT Tyler Shelvin, the #1 player in La and the nation's #2 overall DT.
I'm sure I'm leaving out some names, but you get the point. So please STFU about his Ole Miss classes as if it dismisses his whole resume'.

Thanks for posting that.

So if he can't land Shelvin, given our desperate need at that position, it will be a bellwether on his future success recruiting LA.
He needs to get out of the fence mindset and get top players from anywhere. You know, like Bama does.

The fence he builds will have a gate, so that he has a way to bring national recruits back in.

But can he coach them? Recruiting was never the issue

Actually, his recruiting is being questioned by idiots today and the last few days. I'm just setting the record straight.
Hopefully BeBe will hire Aranda's equivalent on the offensive side and all our development questions will be answered, too.

Your post reminded me of that old fark board meme of Powe with the dunce cap and fax machine. "I wun go Ole Miss."

I watched Shelvin play last night and he needs to get more hustle in his play if he wants to see the field at LSU. The Kid has lots of potential but he needs to show it. He walked around a lot and when the play passed him by, he didn't pursuit like I would have like to see.

We're still very much in it for 5 star DT Marvin Wilson thanks to Orgeron

didn't he get Patrick Willis at Ole Miss?

This dude had a piss poor senior year and looked lazy as F at ND.... He better shape up in college wherever he goes.

Willis' first year at Ole Miss was 2003. O's first season coaching there was 2005.

He left Ole Miss so loaded, that Houston fricking Nutt could win 9 games.

When will he start recruiting LB's?
Need them like yesterday.

I'm sure that's CEOs priority in recruiting at the moment is getting a few big time linebackers or if not big time some great 3* recruits that can develop. We do have some pretty good ones here already like Divinity, Thorton, White, and Anthony. I think these guys will be a very good group. If only we could have them be ready to play with A Key. The front seven is going to be beastly under coach O and Aranda I promise you that. I'm sure the man will be recruiting his arse off to prove all the doubters wrong. He knows if he gets them here that Aranda will make him shine, and depending on the OC that is hired we will see what happens on offense. I like the style we have we just need some imagination when it come to getting it in the endzone. LSU should be able to spread it out 4 or 5 wide and be efficient while also being able to bunch it up and run at will when we want also. If we can get the right guy that can get this accomplished the sky is the limit for this team. That OC should have a record of developing QBs also. If O can pull that off this team is going to be very good, I don't give a damn what the idiots say. GT

I think Auburn and LSU each got credit for landing 5 star Powe and Ole Miss got credit for 15 stars for him before he ever saw the field.
Powe may be the only 25 star player in NCAA history.
And I think he still can't read.
