“There’s a lot to take away from the last two years,” began Ojulari. “I’ll say Coach O — he did an amazing job coaching us. We had a great, great staff, both years in my opinion.”
“But as a high level player, we just have to take away what we did wrong during the season and implement it into this season so we don’t make the same mistakes.”
quote:
“Graduate champions is a big motto for us now,” said Ojulari. “We take academics more seriously. As soon as coach Kelly came in, we raised out GPA by a certain amount of points – I don’t know the exact number – but the Spring semester was a great improvement in our team GPA. He’s definitely pushing academics on us. I know for a lot of guys, academics is very important in their families.”

The more that leaks out about Orgeron's time here makes me wonder how 2019 ever happened 
I'll be forever thankful for it, but it was clearly the exception and not the rule.

Ojulari has too much class to throw coach O under the bus

They’re not going to throw shade at O but from hearing players talk you can tell it was a very chill environment that goes for conditioning to academics the guy just didn’t care and it showed on the field.. Imagine a coach that allowed players to dictate when and when not they felt like playing like wtf.. Especially the whole John Emery academic situation

And recruits' families.

Look, O and his backstabbing machinations did two things:
1) Undermined and killed Les. There were people who wanted to keep him for another 20 years.
2) Brought us the greatest season of all time.
I will always be grateful for these. He moved us out of a rut. But he had no clue how to manage an organization of this magnitude.

His first statement was trying to be nice. We had some of the worst staffs anyone has put together following our champ season.

Prolly has more to do with having more money to give professors, instead of CBK making them improve their grades.

I love the academics thing. That’s a great way to entertain parents and get them on your side

O’s motto was “frick school, play 3 years, and enter the draft”
The entire program fell apart

I wish he was 20# bigger.
