If we do end up with him at HC, what would you consider his responsibility? What types of success/failures would be directly attributed to him? I already see the excuses from people saying he just needs to go out and get a good OC. What if the OC doesn't work? Will that be a failure on Coach O or a failure on the OC? There has to be some attributable form other than recruiting and motivation that he can be critiqued on. If not we'll just keep swapping out OC/DC and you guys will just say it wasn't a good fit if we don't do well.

They'll be to O what Beefense, Choctaw, Gray Tiger etc were to Les (but worse since O probably won't accomplish as much as Les did).

He won't be able to do any wrong, even when he's shitting the bed.

All the bad will be someone else's fault, and all the good will be because of O.

Come on man. Let it rest. It's in joes hands looking at the jones and Caldwell hire, I venture to say it want be someone close to being as good as coach o. I would take coach o tomorrow, not because I feel he's the guy for sure but because I fear it will be lots worse. Remember it's JA not skip

I think his primary responsibility is making sure Mike's cage is cleaned daily

Successes could be making Nicholson wider at the Lee intersection so I don't have to wait 45 minutes trying to get through there on a Friday afternoon.

Failures could be Mike's cage not being cleaned daily

Seriously, what kind of dumb questions are these? What do you think Rebowe's responsibilities are at Nicholls? How about Saban at Alabama?

Like a previous poster mentioned, just give it a break already. Whoever they decide upon, then that is who it will be.

CEO will never be blamed for anything he does as HC.

I'm not kidding either.

Look at the people giving him credit for the offense but giving Ensminger no credit even though Ensminger calls the plays.

The biggest hang up for me is Dave Aranda. The man is a fricking defensive genius. He's easily the best DC in college football and arguably the best in all of football. If LSU chooses to stick with Coach O, you run the significant risk of pissing Aranda off and he bolts. This is something we CANNOT allow to happen no matter how much you slapdicks love CEO. Aranda is far more valuable to this program as DC than CEO would ever be as a HC. Hire a top notch coach and throw the bank at Aranda. Period, end of discussion.

The same as every head coach-- (1) to win games and titles; (2) to run a clean program and recruit well; and (3) promote the LSU brand.

No one cares what skills a coach brings, if those 3 are met.

Since Coach O has taken over the head coaching job of a dysfunctional LSU team, the team has taken a step toward the top of the SEC. His only loss is to Alabama and they only scored a measly 10 points. How many coaches can make that boast? None!!!

He excels as a defensive line coach who can delevop a 3 or 4 star lineman into an elite SEC lineman.

He brings focus and continuity to this team and let's every player know what is expected of them. LSU has developed into a focused, hungry team that knows what it takes to be a champion.

Coach O communicates well with his staff and trust that they will get the job done (without interfering).

Most importantly, Coach communicates well with the fans and the media....he's honost and he truly cares for the great state of Louisiana and the team that represents this great university.

Coach O has been in the football business a long time. He brings a wealth of football knowledge and expertise to this team.

Coach O is MY COACH!

WTF, we kept Miles after 1-9-12

That was so wrong. Remember no first downs in the first half against Georgia. Lucky Tyrann ran a great punt return

O already showed what he brings to the team, all the right moves, except for Bama, but they are Bama, they are great!

Coach O is not a good long term investment because he will be completely reliant on the OC and the DC. If either one fails or leaves, the house of cards falls.
