Orgeron's genuine approach paying dividends in recruiting

Rivals article. Nothing breaking, but an interesting read on O and recruiting.

That sincerity is contagious to Deculus and Orgeron has it in spades.
“I love him,” Deculus said. “I love how he’s such a good influence on everyone. One team, one heartbeat. Everything that he preaches is true. I love him so much. LSU made a great decision on keeping him.
“When they were talking about bringing in a whole new coach and if it wasn’t him they’d bring in a whole new staff, I was scared about that. I didn’t know what else I would do afterward but luckily everything worked out.”
Kary Vincent, another four-star that LSU poached from the state of Texas, has had similar experiences. The four-star has met many of the biggest coaches in the game and he said it’s easy to tell when a coach is giving you the business.
The Port Arthur (Texas) Port Arthur Memorial standout said he’s certain Orgeron isn’t selling him a bill of goods.
“Coach O is a very genuine person,” Vincent said. “He’s very family-oriented and very sincere in everything that he does.
“He’s known for his famous voice, which really attracts a lot of people. A lot of people like him for that. That’s one thing I really love about him – he’s really sincere. He’s that coach when you go to visit him he’s not going to B.S. you. He’s going to remember every name in your family.”

They are a few on here that will not accept anything positive about O.
Or just anything positive in general

Are you really surprised? Having spent time on the Coaching Changes board in the last month, I'm surprised I haven't received death threats.

There are a pocket of posters here that hate Orgeron for his voice and his heartbeat slogan and the way people enjoy him for it.

To me people can say what they want about how this will turn out as Orgeron as a head coach in the win/loss column, that remains to be seen. I think he has done what was needed in retaining a top flight DC, obtaining a good OC and assembling/keeping a great staff both in X & O and recruiting. This was not "his" recruiting class and to keep together what the staff has after Les while most likely pulling a few more great recruits given that this was started midway through the year is commendable IMO. Most classes are blown up/ changed given this scenario. The talent will not fall off with "O" as coach and his staff and I will be interested to see the class next year with a full year of recruiting.

Most of the little kids on here think money grows on trees. Fisher literally wanted top rated coaching money and he isn't the top coach on the nation. He wanted a long term contract for several million a year....for 10 years....so Lsu would owe him 70m....lol. Lsu has great coordinators, possibly the best they have ever had, and if o doesn't work out we don't owe $70m. To all the Fisher lovers....he has a resume closely following that of miles....

The down votes mostly come from what I call the "Bama Mafia"...don't doubt me on this...Shorty works all the angles, especially against LSU because we are his biggest threat when CEO gets all the pieces in place and we are very close...remember that he's from the Bill B. school of cheating and stretching anything and everything to win at any cost...

Since it's spelled with a "ph" - I just assume it's pronounced:

...with more of that success being recent, and not too far in the distant past.

Most of the football ignorant lsu fans think the only coaches more qualified than a career dline coach is Herman and Jimbo.
Hell o wasnt even the most qualified coach on our staff.

I don't bash people because everything is each person's opinion so out of genuine curiosity who was more qualified on staff in your eyes? Again, I am just asking.
