Expectations on Orgeron's Start with LSU

Taking a look at the past three LSU Coaches.

First 3 years:
Dinardo: 7-4 , 10-2, 9-3 (26-9)
Saban: 8-4, 10-3, 8-5 (26-12)
Miles: 11-2, 11-2, 12-2 (34-6)

Miles probably has the biggest advantage of having the team stacked when took over. I'd say Coach O's team moving forward is maybe a bit less than Miles had taking over. I'd say expectation should be minimum of inbetween what Dinardo and Saban did.

If Coach O loses 5 games, that's an immediate hot seat.

Looking at the 4th years of coaches above:
Dinardo: 4-7 (arguably should have been fired after this year)
Saban: 13-1 NC
Miles: 8-5

First 4 year overall records:
Dinardo: 30-16
Saban: 39-13
Miles: 42-11

Saban rebounded with a terrific year after his worst. Coach O loses 6 games, immediate firing IMO. No excuses, we have too much talent.

First 2 years: Saban lost 7 games, that's a worst case minimum for O. Saban had to completely rebuild, O has to rebuild but in a less severe way. We're losing a lot this year but not enough to justify losing 8 games next 2 years.
