In Houston he came in to a talented team that had won iirc 9 games in 3 years. He did well but over years peaked and started down. He traded a long time good wr for rb and draft pick and press was after him.

He looks and sounds like Belichek but not nearly as smart.

He will be a competent coach but will never have a running qb unlsss desperate.
I can remember when he was heralded as the "boy genius" Fun times.

He's a very good coach...unfortunately, his ego is writing checks like he's winning national championships and Super Bowls. Look at Boston College this year. They almost beat Missouri and SMU, both on the road. Outside of the VT game, they had the chance to win every game. This is in O'Brien's first season, with a team he didn't take over until February of this season. Which means he's playing with guys he didn't even get to recruit. They'll probably go bowling again this season (need to win one more between UNC and Pitt).

He's going to be a VERY good for BC, but the big question with BOB is whether he stays there for long time or tries to "climb the ladder" again. That's always been his MO, along with his giant sized ego.

More on the situation. It seems like the backup has always been the better fit for BOB's offense, but it's pretty d@mning all around...for Castellanos, BOB's coaching style, and the NIL ecosystem of college football today.
