Lots of differences:
1. O is a perfect cultural fit for LSU...Chiz was a chameleon that could have marginally fit anywhere, but also not great anywhere
2. O is a MASTER motivator and recruiter...Chiz was neither
3. LSU flagship school in a state ripe for talent...this+great recruiter and rising program (or risen)=great things. AU will never be the flagship...the fact that we have, at times, recruited as well as we have, is almost puzzling to me
4. O does a fantastic job of surrounding himself with smart people, great assistants, that are strong where he is not as strong...Chiz had a few good coaches and others just seemed like placeholders. His best coaches were Gus and the special teams coach Jay Boulware
5. When Chiz speaks, it leaves your head spinning like you just heard from a politician...he can say a lot, without saying anything at all...and he says it without sounding like the bastard love child of Justin Wilson and a cubic yard of gravel dumped into a running wood chipper

I didn't really like the O hire. Thought it was lazy by Alleva. But he has proven me wrong. He recruited Burrow, got Brady and has recruited well/elite. He just needs solid coaches around him and he will win at a high level. Not the same as Chizik
