It was clearly visible early in fall camp that he had circulatory issues in his legs. Clots just aren’t anything to mess with.

I don't wish anything bad on the guy and I think he loves Louisiana. But he was pretty obviously anti-LSU until Les hired him as dline coach. His recruiting at USC and Tenn was heavily skewed to the purposeful detriment of LSU.

I.e. getting Joe McKnight to hold his commit until the last minute to screw over our QB recruiting. And the whole thing with janzen Jackson's dad. Then his firing last year here was a total disrespect of the job of being LSU coach. He sailed it in after 2019.

Edit - he may indeed love LSU now, but he sure didn't act like it before he got here.

Someone posted a picture of a Coach O at Mike Anderson’s after the game and he was wearing compression socks. FWTW

Every job was his "dream job."

I have heard him say it many times and it was also one of his lines in the movie "The Blind Side."

I have never liked him.

It’s a job for him and it’s the same like all of use - we are loyal to our current employer

The view from afar may be clearer. First, I hope O recovers. Secondly, the dude loves LSU. You can't convince me otherwise. Did it work out for him as HC long term. No. Most don't at any school.

Did he have jobs elsewhere? Of course. He was paid to do those jobs.

But to question a La native for his love of LSU? I wouldn't question that.
