Coach O

A good manager of any business is good because he or she does one of two things. They either know how to do the things they are responsible for doing at a high level, or they find others who do those things at a high level and delegate the work to them.
Coach O is that second guy. He finds people that excel and lets them do their thing. He finds good players and good asst coaches. The only X and O area he involves himself in is helping the Dline because that is a skill he does have.
So my question here is, hypothetically, if Coach O over say the next 5 years, averages 10 wins a year (including bowl game), where would you rank him as an SEC coach (1 to 14)? Given, he will likely have to replace both OC and DC at least once in that span, and do so successfully. If he does that well, does he get your respect?

Is this what led him to his stellar record at Ole Miss?

Yeah, his record is a testament to his incredible skills as a manager

10 game a year average will land you in the top 4, easily. Where you land within the top 4 all depends on the landscape of the competition at the time. With the way things are right now that would probably land at #2 behind Saban since no one else is really averaging that.

I don't understand some LSU fans staring a pro O thread on here thinking they're gonna have a good discussion.

Why do idiotic LSU fans say this? Sure he beat Arkansas last year, but look at his history. This dude is a bum who has been extremely fortunate to be where he is.

You guys would be excited averaging a 10-3 season?
Because, I think that you wouldn't.

Is this another thread of lsu fans convincing us O is good because he won't actually do any coaching?

So, basically, you're asking where we rank him among SEC coaches IF he as able to duplicate the success levels of the guy you fired?

nothing about coach O but this line of thinking is wrong.
This only works at the bottom rung of management. Managers who do actual work beyond maintaining their personnel and overseeing duties are a joke. They get stuck at these bottom levels because no-one looking to promote you will take you seriously if you try to be part of the team instead of being a boss. you're much better off complaining and showing how an increased payroll is needed than to talk about how you step in to help when you don't have the payroll or personnel in place to get the work done.
No idea how this relates to football, but I hear this kind of thing so often.

LSU will be looking for a new coach after averaging 8 wins a year the next 3 years.
LSU fans can fool themselves all they want, but everyone else knows how bad a decision LSU made by hiring O.
Will go down as one of the worst hires in LSU history.

I expect LSU fans to rationalize the hire. It's what fans do. Maybe it will work out for you.

He will have to make important decisions regardless of how great and fantastic is staffers are. All kinds of assumptions and hypothetical's can be made, but "if" he finds a way to win 10 games a year consistently then he will have earned respect from his SEC brethren.
