On the assistants, so what? Apparently he did better with those same assistants as those other coaches who got fired for him to be an interim head coach. How is that a bad thing?


what about if/when they leave? how well is O at hiring and finding his own people?

Why don't you just point to his record from 10 years ago, because at least that makes a little bit of sense.


it is the only evidence we have of him running a program over multiple years

it isn't something to judge him 100% on, but you cannot also just toss it aside either

it is part of his resume

I'm not the one building strawmen here

Well he hired Hugh Freeze who is a head coach right now. His O.C. at Ole Miss was Noel Mazzone who is the O.C. at A&M, not a shabby hire. He has connections all around the country. He got Pete Jenkins to come out of retirement FFS. And besides, we've already proven to pay top dollar on assistant coaches, hiring the best shouldn't be an issue. Hell, your boy Les Miles made Cam Cameron the highest paid O.C. in the country to have a passing game that was horrible all but 1 year.

He's coaching the team right now, breaking records with the TE's coach at O.C. It's not like he doesn't have a chance to prove himself because he's doing it now. Nobody is saying give it to him now, but after the start we had to the season if we can win out then you absolutely have to give him serious consideration, and if he drops 3 games then you can go with a tier 2 coach if You can't get the tier 1 coaches.
