This isn't good for recruiting.  Under two weeks til Signing Day and we will be hunting for another D.C. instead of recruiting 100%.  May make some of the defensive recruits think twice.

WTH!!

I just read and article today where his wife was always wanting to settle down in NWA. Just a couple of weeks on the job and he leaves for another one??

What a sorry sucker, if true.  No defensive recruit is going to make a decision to come to a school that doesn't have a DC!  UUUUUGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHH!

Is Orgeron already at another school?
That's a pretty good question.  He sucked as a HC, but he is one heck of a recruiter and always had a pretty solid D down at USC.

I don't think he has gone anywhere, but I don't know for sure.  Anyone know for sure?

I agree with that.  He'd be a good addition this late in the game.  And a heck of a recruiter.

Orgeron's DC for the Saints, last I heard.

Seen this morning where he took a position coaching job with some NFL team. Can't remember which one though.

Orgeron accepted the position of defensive line coach with the Saints yesterday.

woo.pig

On January 23, 2008 it was announced that Orgeron had been hired as the Saints new defensive line coach

Just found the answer.  He was hired as the D-line coach for the New Orleans Saints.  You might could talk him into leaving to come back to college as a DC, but who knows.

Who else would be out there this late in the game?  Not many coaches will leave their current staff this late.

At his first press conference, he said he turned down the opportunity to work for Spurrier to come here.  What has changed?  Surely SC isn't going to pay substantially more than we are.

It will be handled as poetic irony by BSPN and others...  Just wait.

Dear God...what a classless move so close to signing date.  If this is true, it is low class to leave when a recruiting class is hanging in the balance.  If he waited until after signing date, what would it hurt.  This isn't like Petrino leaving with three weeks in a season when everythings over, we have a recruiting class that is hanging by a thread defensively.  This sucks!

No, the PTB have opened up the purse.  It'd be worth an extra $100G to keep him at this point.  Damage to recruiting would be high on the defensive side.

So now what do we do?  Any coordinator worth anything has probably already gotten a job at this point.  I wonder why he would decide to leave so soon after taking the job?  There has to be more to this story.....

this sucks... I hope we can get coach O

He just became the saints D-line coach yesterday.

Another reason to kick SC's azz. We need to hang 50 on them next year.

He mentioned in his presser that he wanted to go to SC and almost went there, I imagine we offered him more and now SC has matched our offer, he is from there and his wife wants to go back.

why would he leave us to go to SC? 
Well lets see here , crossdressing is probly a regular event there so ya he should fit in

This, no doubt, leaves our defensive prospects and commits scratching their heads.  We might very well lose another few due to this.  This hasn't been a good day in Hog land coupled with news of Tyler Wilson focusing on baseball.

Go get coach O.  He will keep and maybe even add some recruits

Could this have happened at a worse time? Big recruiting weekend comming up and no DC.


VenturaHog

We're gonna need a hire in the next few days if we want to salvage a mediocre class. Buckle up this ride just got very bumpy.
