So what would you be saying if O somehow won the west this year and made the playoff... would you still be bashing the hire???? Btw there were many better choices out there when we hired him... however he did much better here than he did at ole miss... agreed????? That's what everyone was bringing up about the hire is that he sucked at ole miss and was gonna have the same kind of record here... they had tons on here saying we were on our way back to the Hallman days...

This is too stupid to even give a real reply to.

And? We should have had Jimbo here after 2015. Admin fricked it up. Should have had Jimbo or Herman after 2016. Admin fricked up again.

Well, in a down SEC where more than half our conference opponents hired new coaches, we got blown out by State and lost to Troy. That's not exactly confidence-inspiring. I guess we'll just have to hope the SEC stays down for us to have a real chance.

Anyone with any intellectual honest will say yes, because the ends would still not justify the means.
The hiring process that resulted in handing the keys to a man with a sub .500 record will FOREVER and EVER be a shite filled one. If it miraculously works out, that in no way will change what happened, and will in no way become a road map for other Power 5 conference teams to handle their searches. Or are you and other suggesting this will become the new paradigm where programs no longer look for the best resume but search out potential diamonds in the rough who were shitty at their first job because, you know, Ed Orgeron worked out??
Essentially what you're asking is does doing a horrendously stupid thing only to have it work out retroactively make the thing not stupid?
No. The outcome has nothing to do with the process.
