I feel like this is an exaggeration. He was certainly better than Peetz, but REALLY GOOD?

Based on our performances since Bama, clearly

He asked Aranda who to get. O didn't have a clue.

I prefer not hiring coordinators who have to learn on the job.

They were both (Peetz & Daronte) but with no play caller experience the better coaches (and the Houdini Bo Nix performance) exposed their lack of effective in game adjustments. UCLA and the SEC a tough pull. I think they got better but O wasn’t going to get another year. Really 2020 should have been a red shirt for O. But not around BR. Anyway CBK will do fine even if he kept Peetz & Jones. Carter is an outstanding DL coach.

He became a good coordinator once he realized that this wasn’t a high school all star game and blitzing a college quarterback causes them to make mistakes.

He learned on the job well.....But LSU isn't a place you should be learning on the job.

I liked the turnaround but we’ve made this dude into some folk hero savant for putting together a good LSU defense, which shouldn’t be a high bar to pass
I’d be fine if we kept him but there’s people out here wanting to not pursue Freeman and Elko types because we had a good end of the season run

I disagree, and solely on the same grounds that has been reiterated here since the beginning... LSU is NOT a training ground. Jones may very well be a good DC some day or even now, but it came at LSU's expense for half a season while he learned his way around the role.

I think he should be at least interviewed. We don’t know how much the Shrimp Boat Captain buffoon meddled with his defense, although the chances are pretty high.

Not a sexy hire but I wouldn't be angry if BK retains him in some capacity.
The numbers after O was fired improved bigly and his players never quit. Our defense improved weekly the last half the season. Recruiting is a big if though.

Did any local reporter ever pin O down and ask what are the characteristics of “the Miami defense”? What defines the “offense we ran at USC”? What are the key components of “the Joe Brady offense”?

I think he did a fantastic job with all the injuries and how the defense progressed as the year went on, despite those injuries.
Posted on 12/1/21 at 10:03 am to S
Outstanding D in the second half of the season. He did A LOT with backups. First half was atrocious. Idk if we keep him on, but I think he should get a look based on that later part of the season. Guess BK needs to get to the bottom of what happened.

Is this a hot take? I thought most were happy with his defense at this point
