LSU could've done better back in 2005 and could do better now. The question is, how much better would another coach be if Leslie wins next month? I don't think it can get much better than a NC.

Who, oh wise one, is this guaranteed better coach you speak of, that LSU can get?

Posssibly, I won't argue that. But will you concede that the odds are we would do much, much worse?

Les is a very poor clock manager, makes slow adjustments and sometimes makes too many adjustments and his play calling style is boring, stale and a bit predictable. He's also seems to run the team ragged in practice and off season and doesn't substitute the players to the fans delight.

That being said,

Les is a pretty good recruiter and surrounds himself with excellent assistants. He's not so stubborn that he doesn't make adjustments and the players seem to really like him. He doesn't let his players sleep on the "smaller" opponents, although Tulane this year could be questioned. Also, so far, he seems to be a very good and respectible person.

You don't win as many games as he's won in spite of the coach. He's a good coach. He's not great. He seems like he's still learning how to be a coach at times. There are better coaches out there, but don't know how many. I would say that he is a top 25 coach, with the potential to get much better.
