The way this is written, COVID, Opt Outs and converting a 3 to 4 man front was too much to overcome in the back end. Maybe Raymond needed to go and not Pelini. It sounds like more of an indictment of Orgeron’s lack of patience.

LINK

“ Hiring Pelini represented Orgeron's desire to move toward the defensive philosophy he favored: a four-man front that attacks opposing backfields and produces a high number of tackles for loss, sacks and turnovers.”

“ Orgeron said during the preseason "we are so much better on defense right now than any part of the season last year," a quote that led to further public scrutiny once things turned awry.”

“ Pelini's scheme was indeed more volatile, ranking second nationally with 22 total turnovers forced while ranking in the Top 50 in tackles for loss (63, 33rd) and sacks (24, 32nd).”

So first you are criticizing O for the Pelini hire, now you are criticizing letting him go.

I’m not agreeing with anything. I’m just sitting laughing at how he let Munoz walk, kept Ensminger k owing full well who the OC was last season and who would have been close to repeating then ONLY TARGETING 1 coach because that dinosaur Pete Carrol said so. To quote Alleva “I am the committee”. Enjoy this nugget...

“” Orgeron said during LSU's spring coaching clinic that Pelini was the only coach he talked to about the job. He'd consulted their shared mentor, Pete Carroll, who told Orgeron that Pelini "has the best defensive mind of any coach I've ever coached with."”
