O loved LSU hired well and recruited well.

He did neither one of those well.
It's more complicated than just writing O off as the dumbest person to ever hold a clipboard.
He had great hires and he had horrible hires.
Joe Brady - great hire
Hoe Pelini - horrible hire.
As far as recrutiing, it's weird. O was able to make sure we had high ranked classes each year but man, it was like the ranking was all he cared about. Totally ignored positions of need and evaluating players beyond their star ranking.
One thing you can't argue with is that he loved LSU. Guy was basically just a mascot for the 2019 team but couldn't of been a better one.
Do I want him back? Hell no.
But now that we've moved on to a much better situation, I see no reason we can't just appreciate his 1 unbelievable season and leave it at that.

How does anyone really know that? He was one of those “this is my dream job” guys everywhere he went.
But I refuse to believe a coach can fall arse-backwards into possibly the greatest college football team there ever was and be completely worthless.

He had 1 great hire. That’s it.
The rest were uninspired trash. Because no one wanted to work for him.
He fricking hired a guy without even interviewing him. Not that he’d know how to really conduct an interview but still.

So what you’re saying is that he was not a good recruiter.
