I'm curious if you guys think he would be a real candidate?
How is he doing recruiting at LSU, who are his commits?
surely as long as O has been a coach he deserves the shot at DC. I think having him on staff would certainly help our recruiting and with a little help I bet he'd be a good coordinator.
If Mullen is gonna pretty much require a certain defense, might as well bring in O and get as good a talent as possible.
We are going to need a Linebackers coach. O and Turner are both DL
He doesn't have the best reputation calling a defense. If he did, he'd be calling a defense somewhere.
Hopefully not - we can certainly do better .Quote:

Get Orgeron.
I'm clueless about their salary, how much would a top flight DC cost?
Who are some of the best DC's currently available?
Lsu has the number one class in America. After 8-4 and 9-3 seasons.Quote:

For those beating the drum that we can't get to the next level without recruiting better, here is your best chance to change that.
Well, 14 out of 18 LSU COMMITS are top 300 guys. What do we have to lose? We need to fill these 2 openings with awesome recruiters who know MS.Quote:

Hoops, that's my thinking.Quote:

I'm ready to start getting some sure enough studs on campus, we have coaches that can assist in game planning and play calling if needed.
We have a chance to try something new this time, I'm all for making a big hire this time. The last few have been meh at best.
No.Quote:

Wasn't there some that said he was damn near the guy THIS TIME LAST YEAR? Something somehow fell apart I don't know why or what happened but something that's fixable?
Frick it all to hell. Coach O as linebackers, DC and recruiting coordinator.
Ed Reed as Safeties coach because you can.
No. If he was a legit candidate to be a DC -- why has he never gotten the promition? Never more obvious than it was at LSU in this cycle. Just because someone can recruit -- it blows my mind that a huge percentage of our fanbase thinks that qualifies them to coordinate a defense -- the single most important x's and o's position on our staff.
It's like no one here watched the Orange Bowl last year.
Michigan's DC, you mean...Quote:

For all we know he may be the next Dick LeBeau.
At this point I'm all for going in a different direction than we have in the past. What we've been doing isn't going to work any longer, we are being passed up by our instate rival. We have to do something different.
