Archer was worse than Hallman, if only because he was handed a Ferrari and turned it into an Edsel within 3 years.


I always find that analogy silly. Archer also had a 10-1-1 season and LSUs only top 5 finish between 1961 and 2003. As others mentioned he was not a good recruiter but recruiting was starting to slide under Arnsparger. Also in Archers defense somewhat, the NCAA instituted new eligibility requirements prop 48 I think it was called and a lot of in state kids were ineligible. Hallman was a better recruiter but an awful coach. If you could combine the 2 he might not have been so awful
