Let that sink in. There were so many doubters, including myself, that he would struggle to win 7 to 8 games with the schedule he was handed. The man has done a hell of a job this year.

he deserves a 10 year deal IMO

If he beats Bama even by 1 I’m ok with an extension

Can't wait to watch him sustain that.

He's one win away from having the #1 ranked team in the country.

If you ever want a good laugh. Go to a USC(west) message board and bring up his success because they passed on him, despite him improving their team as an interm coach. Now he has the number 4 team in the country probably 3 when the real poll comes out on Tuesday, and with the most impressive win in the country. While the Trojans are 4-4, and about to start yet another coaching search.

It seems like you almost can't kill LSU. People (including most LSU fans) thought hiring O would destroy the program. Just looking at things objectively, almost anyone would agree. He won 3 SEC games at Ole Miss in 3 years the only time he was offered a head coaching job and he sounds like a character out of "Water Boy." Yet, LSU is somehow ranked #4 playing one of the toughest schedules in the nation. I thought we'd do better than what people were saying going into the year, but even I wasn't this optimistic.

Yep.
I posted back when Coach Eaux was hired, that I thought there was a pretty good chance he could be successful at LSU. I mentioned that the hire seemed similar to when Dabo became HC at Clemson. Dabo was a position coach who had never even been a coordinator. Excellent recruiter and motivator who had worked for and learned from some good coaches -- like Coach Eaux. Dabo got the interim gig and was then given a shot as the HC. It was little bumpy for Dabo at first, but he surrounds himself with a strong staff and is consistently successful. I see no reason why Eaux can't succeed with that model at LSU. The QB position has been a weak link too much in recent years at LSU. How well Eaux manages to resolve that is key. Getting Burrow was a pretty good move.

Mike Dubose won a SEC Title at Bama.

And to think you LSU fans were so mean to him.
I’d extend his contract another five years and add $10MM to the buyout if I were Joe.

Do you remember the 90's? You can KILL LSU.

I tell you. I have always liked Coach O. In a day where football coaches are supposed to behave and sound like college professors, coach O stands out for being himself. You can just really tell he loves the game of football and his kids seem to love him. I know he probably has a hard time getting a big time head coaching gig because he isn’t polished, but I want a guy that motivates kids and gets them to play hard at the end of the day. I hope he sticks around a long time.

Yes, unfortunately. I'm talking now though. And I did say "almost" because I know things can crash real fast.
Many were sure this was the year. I thought last year was the year when we lost to State and Troy. But somehow, LSU will win at least 8 games for the 19th year in a row.

It amazes me that people dinigrate this man because of the way he talks.... Honestly, I could only understand 5 out of 10 words Paul Bryant mumbled... evidently his players did understand his language....

Just wait till he gets all his guys on his team. Then they will all be able to understand him and LSU will be unstoppable. rabblebaowlbkeabw chuckle chuckle rabkkwlbowabw arwb wba football ha.

Reminder that Muschamp finished #3 in the BCS once upon a time.
