His prowess as a an offensive play caller got Majors fired. Majors didn't realize that when he came back early, he was throw it away the play caller that was winning games for Fulmer.Fulmer wasn't universally liked as an OC here. As I said he was much maligned. I'm not taking a position one way or the other but for Hank to portray him as some offensive guru is a huge stretch.
I agree with what yer trying to say but yer examples of fulmer and ed o are not helping you. Fulmer was already progressing into a hc role. Pittman hasn't coached anything other than ol really ever. If yer gonna compare ed o you can't really use his current job as he had head coaching job experience in multiple places prior to his current job. Comparing his first hc job at ole miss would be a fair comparison to Pittman but he didn't exactly succeed there.When was the last time LSU saw this level of success? If it is a easy as you say surely someone would have fallen into one by now. Surely Ed O is not that much better of a coach than Les Miles.
Another Hank Tank. Zero logic.
I never said I would want him here. We ain't no Arkansas. I said it was a good hire for Arkansas.
Because they weren't getting a big name hire. It was going to be a gamble no matter which way they went. They had a history with Pittman and thought it was a good fit. I think he could be a decent head coach. You've buried him from the start. I'm interested in seeing what he can do.Why is it a good hire for Arkansas?... that’s what I’m asking you. I gave you my reasons. He’s never been a coordinator so he doesn’t have his own identity. He’s been a juco hc once 26 years ago. He’s also bounced around from job to job. You’re not going to bring in elite classes to Arkansas so his “recruiting ability” is not a huge factor. So again i ask why is this a good hire?
LSU also went undefeated and losses in the bcs title game not that long ago. Miles nor Oregon are great coaches as it shows from their other jobs. LSU is a top 5 job in America. There’s dozens of coaches that could win there and literally every coach since saban has won there... just like every coach since tressel has won at osu.
Kiffin hired Tee at USC back in 2012.
I could see him pursuing DJ due to recruiting Memphis and LA.
Nobody else that he has a history with would leave Pruitt. Gotta be Tee and maybe DJ.
