but O was hired for continuity in recruiting

Has Alleva said that or is it just your assumption?

We have a top 5 class right now, and I expect them to finish that way. That's basically what we were sold on. But pleading "he's new" to excuse the losses of two blue chip Baton Rouge linebackers is ridiculous. Putting that in a sig-quote, despite Alleva contradicting that idea when explaining WHY HE HIRED O, is ignorant.

I get that it's not the end of the world if you replace them. If we finish top 5 or better, then I would even say that there WAS continuity in recruiting. O is not new to the program, Louisiana, or LSU's recruiting targets.

Linebackers? Wouldn't that be a Dave Aranda miss? He is the linebackers coach and has been at LSU for a full year. If he can't close the deal with two Baton Rouge linebackers whose fault is it?

Fire Aranda or possibly sign Moses and Allen? The decision has been made and it is a damn good one and a win for LSU.
