The reason I like him, the rantards don't.

He has the skins on the wall. All on here typing we can do better, we can also do worse.

If he is hired to be DC, I predict Coach O will be fired in 1 year.

And if his defense turns out to suck, LSU won't be able to fire him because that would be racist.

His defenses were shite at vandy.

only the past couple of seasons. His defenses were comparable to Franklin's (around 6th in the SEC) until 2018. That tells me he wasn't a great recruiter or head coach more than anything, doesn't mean he doesn't know how to put together a defense with tools that he'd have at LSU. He was very good in that role at Stanford as well. I wouldn't personally pick him, but we could do worse.

See where he coached under Harbaugh at Stanford.

Meeeeechigan needs a new DC, he probably winds up there.

I hope this isn’t another knee-jerk, familiarity hire.

Sometimes it’s best just to keep your racist thoughts to yourself.

Go look at Stanford’s defensive rankings when he actually controlled a defense


Dude can coach and was one of the top guys out there at one point.


It’s not a splash hire but we could do exponentially worse

Vandy was last in the SEC in the talent composite on 247 this year (and I'm guessing that's been the case his entire tenure). They also had like half their starters opt out before the season and many more during the season. They were playing with fewer than 50 available roster players on a team that already had less talent than the entire conference.

But it’s Vandy.

Coaching Defense at Vandy is a different animal than coaching defense here.

Everything you say is spot on. Any thoughtful opinion is appropriate, but the superficial degrading of an individual with no real research is all to common on this board.
