Ok. He said that he hopes we hire him in a Bama perspective. He thinks we are playing on emotion and our talent is already crazy. Les miles was just holding them back. Coach O has already coaches at ole miss and USC and has been decent if that. I'm just wondering your thoughts about this. Is it really coach O or is it the players.

The same players weren't motivated and weren't put in any position to win at all 4 weeks ago.
We have guys who actually think they are gonna make a difference, gonna touch a ball, and young guys who know they will get some playing time at some point.
I'm sure it's fun to be a part of

Plus the fans aren't making this decision. We can hope all we want but it's not our decision. Just like it wasn't that bama fans decision to hire Saban.
We can be emotional all we want. It's not our decision.

I mean, yeah, all of that is pretty agreeable. LSU is loaded as people will see with this and next years' draft. Coach O is about as perfect of an interim coach you can have in terms of taking a team with low morale and injecting life into them. In terms of being a long term coach, the jury is still out with substantial evidence (3 years) pointing toward no. LSU is above taking a chance otherwise. Put emotion aside and realize when every other SEC fanbase is hoping we hire him, it's telling.

The administration listens to fan input tho. We might not make the final decision but we have input and influence

Maybe the top 10 boosters. Other than that no they don't listen to the fans.

Listening to fan sentiment last November is what got us into the predicament to begin with.

"Les Miles! Clap Clap clapclapclap!"

Duh, every team in the SEC is praying LSU hires Coach O. That should tell you all you need to know.

I think CEO at the helm, a slam dunk hire at offensive coordinator and defensive line, and a full offseason together will have us back as a consistent top 10 team.

What's even more telling is no one wanted LSU to fire Miles....since coach O has taken over, LSU has won...not in the usual nail biter cardiac Tiger finish either....we have blasted everyone in our path....CEO's stint at USC is not a good assessment because of the small sample size...I wonder how the current head coach at USC is doing right now anyway......???

If he wins out, the job is his. And I hope he wins out.
He's not the same coach he was at ole miss. The guy has changed. Personally, I'd wait too the end of the season to make this call

No one cares about what a Bama fan says, but to me just them talking about Coach O says to me that Bama fans are very concerned about the game in Death Valley. We have every advantage. The biggest advantage is the size of Bama's fans, players and coaches egos.
