worked for Joe Alleva, then Woodward. STFU acting like he's a representative of Woodward.
So most of his career he has been in administrations where the A.D. had to resign or be fired. However, he has the secret sauce?

Learning what not to do is just as important as learning what to do.

He's been working in the athletic department for 24 years. He has worked under Skip, Aleva, and Woodward. He may have picked up good and/or bad from any or all of them. How about we wait and see how it works out, since we can't do much about it.

It was the mega contracts with mega buyouts
Did he issue those in a vacuum, himself? Or were they scrutinized and approved by the President and BOS?
I don’t understand this criticism.

it was political. Woodward supported Landry's opponent just like Graves. Don't make an enemy of Landry.

Exactly. The President, BOS, and the boosters footing the bill could have vetoed Brian Kelly the human being, Brain Kelly the football coach, or his contract at any point of the process. The AD doesn’t have the authority to actually do the hiring. They can only find and present a candidate and then negotiate the terms that it would take to hire them. It has to be green lit by multiple people with more actual power than the AD.
I’m sure the AD does more of the vetting on the front end and there is a trust factor there, but you don’t fire Orgeron less than 2 years from fielding the best team in the history of the sport, agree to his buyout, then hire Brian Kelly to a 10 year 95 million dollar contract with his buyout without SEVERAL powerful brokers giving their approval at multiple points along the way.
