He was kicked out of Holy Cross, graduated from De La Salle, then attended LSU where he was an Agent runner. Couldn’t pass, somehow got lucky enough to be Mississippi River Pilot, where eventually he got caught for having a forged Coast Guard License.
Used his I’ll begotten money to start an LSU website, where he gave Gordy Rush, Matt Moscona and the rest of the local media columns, which led to a radio show. Because he and Rush worked behind the scenes to get Les to hire Orgeron, then Alleva to promote Orgeron, he was rewarded with a job he is incredibly unqualified for.

They did a spot where they ignored the Steele hire and were creaming themselves over us hiring O, it was nauseating. F

About the only skill he brings to the table is the fact that he studies recruiting very very well. He himself is not a recruiter per se but he knows south Louisiana like the back of his hand.
GTFO with this bullshite. He was never a hair on Shea, Sonny, Jimmy Smith or even Mike Scarborough’s arse.
Being played by Landon Collins was his biggest accomplishment.

Meh. It's gotta be the slowest of days in the offseason that the qualifications of some assistant to the HC is foremost on your brain. FFS does anyone truly care about this shite? SMH

In short he makes orgerons life a little easier
I am willing to bet most power 5 coaches have someone on staff that is there solely to make their life easier. I think everyone just hates him because they hate O and they think he helped O get hired.

Well he did.
Just seems like a sketchy as frick situation when you put all the details together. You don’t think?
What if we were truly interested why he got the job and what his role is? Coach O hate on the side.

Dude it is a nice summer afternoon and you have nothing better to do with your time than to try to stir up shite?
Your life must really suck.

He's just following in the grand old tradition of good ole boy Louisiana/LSU politics of hiring incompetent friends for lucrative jobs they're not qualified for.
Always felt it was a kickback because of the PR campaign he ran prior to O’s hiring.

Fair enough. Always can use those guys.
You can easily find someone to do that who is not a convicted felon. It speaks to Orgeron's character as a person that he would hire someone like that to be his personal assistant.

We hired a coach with an embarrassing record of failure who then hired a convicted felon as his personal assistant. The same convicted felon is given regular access to recruits and players. You can't make this shite up. This was a once proud football program.

He’s a liaison. Helps pinpoint potential recruits via word of mouth. Helps plan visits. Was behind the billboards after last recruiting cycle. By all accounts & from what I’ve heard from recruits is that he’s very professional & is well liked by HS coaches particularly in LA
