Dinardo and its not close. He still gets overlooked for bringing LSU back to decency. Signing of Kevin Faulk was the groundwork for the golden age of LSU football that we are still enjoying. That showed what LSU could be with the in state talent and had a lot to do with Saban wanting to come here. He left a decent amount of undisciplined talent when he left.
Archer is not a bad coach now but he was nowhere near ready for the LSU job at the time. I think he was like 34 and that was unheard of at the time. He pretty much did the opposite of Dinardo, taking the program from good to terrible and seemed to prefer out of state talent over in state when it was available.

Hallman vs Archer is a better question.

I agree EAA. He let things implode on him from within and lost control too much to ever get it back under his leadership.
But he brought back the white jerseys, created the Gridiron Club and the Recruiting Bash, fought the prevailing culture and pissed some of the old fat cats off to start the ball rolling to improve the facilities significantly during his tenure.
He had to go for us to move forward, but laid some important groundwork.
