This is essentially wet dog shite vs dry dog shite but I'll give the slight edge to O just because he had his star QB for two years and at least won in more than one season. Gene was the actual true definition of one hit wonder.
Both are warmed over blue waffles as HC's though.
ETA: Orgeron career records by season as full time HC
2005:3-8
2006: 4-8
2007: 3-9
2017: 9-4
2018: 10-3
2019: 15-0
2020:5-5
2021: 6-7
Chizik career records
2007: 3-9
2008: 2-10
2009: 8-5
2010: 14-0
2011: 8-5
2012: 3-9

It is true O had much more success than Chizik. 2018 LSU finished in the top ten and ended UCF's 25-game win streak in the Fiesta Bowl. Meanwhile, 2009 Auburn went to overtime with Northwestern in the Outback Bowl.
To answer OP, I don't believe O is a one-hit wonder.
Furthermore, the squads cannot be accurately compared. The 2019 Bayou Bengals was better than the 2010 Plainsmen. I don't think even the most diehard Barner would claim otherwise.
