O was a great recruiter. We had to take a lot of marginal players and remember a lot not making it on campus or past freshman year for off the field issues. Great recruiter but he couldn't get the right coordinators or refrain from micromanaging play calling. He tried to do too much and wasn't equipped to handle it. It's easy to say now but I really don't think he could of ever gotten out of the rut at OM.
I remember reading that Orgeron at OM would have a 150-play scrimmage on Thursdays. If true, just cutting that out would have made OM better.

Full speed. Full contact.
Can't remember which year Mizzou came to town(pre-SEC) but it rain delayed for an hour or two. O took the team into the IPF for a full contact and full speed scrimmage.
Then we had to play an entire game afterwards.....on a sloppy field.
