Actually, it was later in the war where he was screwed over the most, after Hood took command of the Army of Tennessee.
It was in '62 and '63, when he had his own command, that he was able to show his natural military brilliance. Speicfically at battles like Parker's and Brice's Crossroads. Rommel studied Forrest's tactics at Parker's Crossroads, exstensively.
He wasn't necessarily screwed over by Hood, though Hood himself was an aweful general to have in charge of the Army of Tennesse.
