Man...after I listened to all the people on Tigerdroppings, I thought no one wanted to work for Ed O or for LSU because of Title IX.

Oh well, I guess they are wrong again as always. I mean, all three people that Ed O offered the job to all jumped at the remarkable opportunity. Unfortunately, not all of them were able to accept it for one reason or another, but nonetheless, they all tried nonetheless.

The best not according to a piss poor observer like you but the best according to Ed O, thankfully.

I think everyone wants to see him succeed but you're one blind mofo if on paper you think this is a good hire. There's nothing to be excited about and to be fair, he could definitely be a great hire. There's nothing wrong with questioning this hire when O has struck out on every single hire he has made except Brady. Not exactly something to give a vote of confidence on unless you're blindly loyal to a guy who has no accountability on continuing to drain the bank account of TAF/Boosters.

They all said yes. Unfortunately two of the three for one reason or another couldn't take the job.

Nonetheless, there were tons of prospective DCs out there hoping and wishing for an opportunity to work for Ed O and LSU. As Ed O is one of the best college football coaches in the industry today and LSU is one of the best college football programs in the country today.

Imagine if we landed Marcus freeman. We would all be pumped up, recruits would be pumped up, and our future would look bright. Now it looks like back to the drawing boards again

It's actually the opposite implied by O himself by saying they talked to several candidates and they were not interested in LSU. That's right your daddy O admitted candidates were not even interested in working under him.

There's a good chance he will. LSU posters on this site are wrong all of the time.

How do you know if he will be a good DC hire or not? As you are one of the biggest buffoons that post on Tigerdroppings especially with regard to Ed O. As you have never gave the man one ounce of credit for all that he has accomplished at LSU. Indeed, if we were to listen to you, Les Miles is ten times the head coach Ed O is.

Indeed, it didn't matter who Ed O hired because it never would have been right according to you an utterly obsessed Ed O hater.

Not to mention that, per your opinion which you have been expressing ad nauseam, Ed O was a piss poor hire and never mind the fact that in just his third year he won a national championship with the absolutely best college football team ever in college football history.

Personally, in my opinion your lame opinions stink to high heaven. As you are never ever right ever about anything. Look, go bore someone else to death with your stupidity. As I'm sick and tired of listening to you constantly crying about Ed O every damn day ad nauseam.

In fact, it didn't really matter who Ed O would have hired, as an utterly obsessed Ed O hater you would have inevitably vilified and demonized the hire no matter what. Big deal.

Excuse me, I trust a professional like Ed O and the last thing I do is trust a clueless ignoramus like you.

Good. Not the hire I was expecting, but I wish him all the best and just want to put 2020 completely in the past.
