He had great hires and he had horrible hires.
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.

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

No, like I said before it's more complicated.
Being a bad recruiter (across the board) would mean he can't get kids to wanna come here and we end up being in the 30s on the rankings.
O seemed to be able to get a lot of kids to buy in, he just wasn't strategic about it. Seemed like he went after highly ranked recruits at any position instead of honing in on specific needs where we were thin.
I'm the first one to say that he doesn't come close to sniffing a natty at another university but I still don't think he's full on Simple Jack like you seem to.
