If he does run the table then surely the Tiger faithful will say he did it with Miles' players.
Just like they said Miles was winning with Saban's players.
But it isn't happening at all. What will happen is that O will open up the passing game somewhat and show the boosters that, yes, Miles was correct that it'll take 2-3 more years at a minimum to recruit players that can run the kind of offense the boosters want to see.
There is a difference, Saban won with Saban players, Miles won with Saban players, Miles didn't win with Miles players, so if O wins with Miles players he would be an upgrade

Um, not quite. Dinardo brought LSU back to bowls and recruited pretty well, he was very important to getting things back on track in that respect. Saban did better than that with Dinardo's players, and had three years to recruit his own guys before winning the NC.
Coach O is working with players specifically recruited and coached for a power running game. You can't just start running a Texas Tech style offense mid-season, you have to spend a couple of years (minimum) recruiting and coaching players for that kind of game. You can try and get a transfer QB maybe as a stop-gap. Sometimes this works (Mett) sometimes it's meh. But changing an entire team's offensive philosophy mid-season is very unlikely to go well.
That said, when you have a new coach you can blame anything bad on the old one, so there's that.
