LSU football’s Ed Orgeron has reinvented himself as a coach over the last decade.
But while Orgeron has continuously evolved for the better, there’s one trait of his that hasn’t a changed a bit.
Coach O is still one of the most fierce recruiters in college sports. If there were 36 hours in a day, Orgeron would find a way to recruit for 40 of them.
So it shouldn’t be a surprise that Orgeron aims to hire coaches with a similar philosophy, which is essentially “embrace the grind”.
And that’s exactly what Coach O and LSU got by promoting Kevin Faulk from director of player development to running backs coach last month.
