re: Tell me why Coach O is different from Gene Chizik

I freely admit I thought it was a disaster of a hire at the time. Of course not only was I wrong but Arkansas would go on to hire a coach who is on the Mt. Rushmore of shitty SEC coaches.

What has impressed me about Coach O is that he made some mistakes as LSU Head Coach. Some real whoopers in fact. He learned from all of them and didn't do them again. That probably seems like I'm damning him with very faint praise indeed but it is hard to learn from your mistakes and get better.

Could all this collapse next season? Sure. It is college football. You never really know what can happen. Right now, however, Coach O is doing a fine job as HC. You can't ask for more than that.
