So which one of you coaching geniuses would have picked Eddie O to coach at LSU? Or recruited 2-3 - Frank L - 7:23pm 1/14/20 (11) [View All]
- Not me. I didn't think Orgeron was a good coach. He had a 16-27 record as HC when LSU hired him. [IMAGE] - NedoftheHill - 11:33pm 1/14/20
- Joe Burrow was a 4-star, top-10 ranked dual threat QB. [NT] [LINK] - lacan - 8:55pm 1/14/20
  - Jurko & Wimbush, notably higher rated prospect than Burrow. Having a good coach develop you helps. [NT] - Karamello - 8:05pm 1/15/20
    - If you can't throw, you can't throw in Winbush's case and in Jurko, time will tell a lot of QBs - THEISMANCARR - 5:34pm 1/16/20
  - Rivals listed him as a 3 star, number 24th ranked dual threat QB - CC72 - 7:30am 1/15/20
  - Not according to PB Chad. [NT] - Frank L - 9:00pm 1/14/20
    - Just repeating what the game announcer said. He couldn’t be wrong he’s on TV [NT] - PBHangingChad - 11:59pm 1/14/20

  - WE need to get over this too inexperienced , too young nonsense, it isnt brain surgery - cubsfanin16 - 8:15pm 1/14/20
    - You're exactly right. The old guard believes age has merit. It doesn't. It only proves when you were - oldirish - 11:00pm 1/14/20
      - Stuffy old guard. Shoulda made Rees the HC. Experience is for fools! [NT] - TakethetrainKnute - 10:34am 1/15/20
        Can you provide any detail around his lake of experience? - oldirish - 10:18pm 1/15/20
        Lake? He doesn't even have a puddle of experience at the coordinator level... - TakethetrainKnute - 8:42am 1/16/20
        I'm a wait and see and don't think it's a terrible hire at the moment. - oldirish - 9:05am 1/19/20
  - Too inexperienced??? Not what Q. Nelson, B. Quinn and others think - MarkHarman - 8:05pm 1/14/20
    - I stand by this comment regardless of if he's a success or not. He's got the experience. [NT] - oldirish - 11:01pm 1/14/20
    - I separate playing experience, and other coaching positions on offense, from being in charge - DadUdaMan4 - 10:59pm 1/14/20
      - Do you remember how often and how well Rees audibled into the right plays as a player? That's - oldirish - 11:03pm 1/14/20
- He did stick with the run better, but will Kelly use him to do his own thing again? [NT] - BaronVonZemo - 7:29pm 1/14/20
  - Unfortunately, I think you are right. That's my only real concern. It's probably just a puppet job - oldirish - 11:05pm 1/14/20
