Coach Zero and it isn't even close.

There was good reason to hire all the others. None for Zero. (other than he talks like us)

Going on a message board to bitch about an overused topic will not change anything.

Ever.

Seriously. Im not a fan of O. But lurking the board before I made an account was like slogging through a swamp.

Orgeron had one of the worst HC records in SEC history when he was offered what was at the time widely considered a top ten job

Mike Archer was worse because of who they turned down- Steve Spurrier and Mike Shanahan for starters.

DiNardo shouldn’t be in that group son.

Ed Orgeron, at least people wanted the others. Orgeron tried to get an interview at Syracuse and they turned him down. The fact we hired that clown blows my mind. He was 11-25 overall and 3-21 in the SEC in his only other coaching gig. There’s a reason he couldn’t get hired for 10 years before our dumbasses hired him.

Well on paper O is the least qualified. That doesn’t mean he turns out to be the worst. Archer took over a good program and ran it in the ground.

Archer was a whiz kid as a DC and proven himself in that capacity. He was young which was the risk.

Hallman had proven himself successful at Southern Miss even if it was mostly due to Favre.

DiNardo proved himself as a coordinator and then while his record at Vandy wasn’t great, it was a legit success in terms of where they were before he got there.

O is the only one that was a proven massive failure as a head coach and never been in charge of either side of the ball.

Easily he is the worst hire.

O is one of the most questionable hires of all time in college football, so O by a significant margin.

At the time of hire Orgeron clearly the worst. He is a low ceiling/low floor guy. Think about that. At least the others had some potential.

1, Orgeron - No search
2. Archer - No Search and Arnsbarger and that mess he did with UF.
3. Hallman - on paper was a good hire. He won at So Miss including beating Bama.
4. DiNardo was the right coach at the time to get Olinemen and build a roster.

Perhaps the first three were questionable, Orgeron was purely moronic.
