Yet he's the guy that stepped in, after Sark melted down, and held that season together at USC.

I'll be the first to admit, I don't understand O. I think, honestly, if he were an assistant at LSU - he'd be perfect. He's just not a year in and year out guy that should be in charge. And that's not a knock at him. He's still, if I suddenly won about five lotteries and decided to start a college just to have a football team - one of the guys I'd want on my coaching staff.

Just not the guy at the top.

Being a head football coach in college is all about three things: 1) recruiting 2) hiring good people and 3) being a good enough leader to manage all the workings of a major college program. It's very much a CEO position.

If you can bring in the right people and lead/inspire them you can be an imbecile with X's and O's and still be a very successful HFC - as long as you know you're an imbecile with X's and O's and stay out of that area (which knowing your limitations and having the humility to hire people better at those things is part of being a good leader).

I give O a lot of credit for bringing in great people in 2019, but it remains to be seen if he can do that consistently.
