LSU (Dietzel through Kelly) coaches' records - pre-LSU / at-LSU / post-LSU
Posted on 12/2/21 at 7:14 am

"LSU is taking a break from being king maker by hiring a king" - this quote and the idea for this detailed graph came from a thread on the SECRant / Coaching Changes Board
* Y2NC - # of years until 1st national championship
Takeaways -
1. LSU continues to make coaches. The only outliers are pre-LSU: Curley Hallman (had Brett Farve all 3 years) & post-LSU: Nick Saban (no need to discuss)
2. If Paul Dietzel stays, we might be a blue blood
3. If Bill Arnsparger stays, we don't have the 90s (when I went to school)
4. Never hire coaches without any head coaching experience (Mike Archer & Jerry Stovall)
5. Except Saban (the outlier), most LSU coaches haven't gotten head coaching jobs after LSU, and the few that have didn't do nearly as well (Miles, Dinardo, Dietzel)
6. If you take out the outliers (Hallman & Saban), the overall record for LSU head coaches - pre-LSU: 70-101 (40.9%), at-LSU: 457-208-16 (67.1%), post-LSU: 76-124-2 (37.6%)
Updates to the image
- added Toledo year to Saban and updated %
- added Post-LSU column and added Saban (Miami & Alabama) & Miles (Kansas)
- added coaches back to Dietzel & years at LSU
- added Dinardo's XFL record

So our last 3 coaches have a average winning percentage of 74.6% @LSU & we just hired a coach with a 72.9% winning percentage

Amd Saban didn’t have to coach against Saban. He definitely took the program to new heights.

Man our old Athletic Director is such a moron

Don’t know who did that graphic but Saban’s win% at Michigan State is wrong. It’s 61.4%

Damn if that win percentage jumps 20 points like Saban and Miles, poo yi, we in for a hell of a ride.

Great post

What's more alarming is why in the hell did Ed O get a head coaching job at LSU with that shite record? I know Alleva but, O's record was horrendous.

Now do their post-LSU winning percentage.
Posted on 12/2/21 at 10:13 am to bisceaux
So we fired 2 National Championship winning Coaches with the same combined winning % totals as Nick Saban!
Forever LSU my arse!
I don't like the Brian Kelly hire...but at least I know he won't be here long...Championship or not.

Add 21 to the win column that were vacated...
Posted on 12/2/21 at 11:33 am to bisceaux
Kind of remarkable

At the time of the hiring, CBK is the best-credentialed head football coach that LSU has EVER hired.

Kinda nitpicking here, but Central Michigan is CMU, not UCM.
Either way, good graphic.

Based on this most excellent data:
Our coaches winning %s have gone up a minimum of 13.6%, a maximum of 34.6%, and an average of 22.7%.
Therefore, we can expect Brian Kelly's winning % at LSU to be between 87.5% and 108.5%, with a likelihood of being around 96.6%.
Math don't lie.

Would like to see Archer, Hallman and Dinardo included there. I think it would showcase what poor hires they really were.

This lsu team will be an easy rebuild. We have a lot of talent and a lot of experience in the freshman and sophomore classes.
Not nearly as set up as Miles was from 05-07 but still good.
