It's pretty simple. If you can hire a coach with a better HC resume than O you do it. None of the wait it out nonsense. It doesn't matter what he can do in 7 games. There's way more to being a HC than that. If there's ONLY guys left who are on O's level than so be it, but if that's the case LSU screwed this fire/hire up big time.
ETA: In all seriousness, let me ask all the wait it out or coach o or bust people a question...
If he wins out or only loses to Bama by say less than 10, does texas, ND, Oregon, USC, etc start calling him up willing to pay him 3+ mil a year? If you don't believe that O would immediately be in there top 5 then why should he be for LSU?
I'll answer. I don't know if they start calling and I don't care one bit if they do or don't.
Tell me what more there is about Coach O that he hasn't been able to prove or wont be able to prove this season as far as being a head coach.

So if he does great from here on out, I'm just wondering what the specific concern is.
I'm not for hiring him right now. I'm for giving him a legit interview for the rest of the season. If he can lead us through this gauntlet in front of us and come out on top, he has my 100% support.

The unchecked boxes would be:
terrible record when he was an HC.
We were supposed to be this good this year. Miles really held us back this much ln offense. I didnt fully realize that until he left.
USC wouldn't give him a shot
Syracuse wouldn't hire him as HC either.
He hasn't even been offered a DC job let alone HC job.
Similar to one above, but when he was an actual HC and not interim he proved he wasn't ready for it. Has that changed? Maybe but LSU isn't the place for him to find it out.
All those things you mentioned you can get with any of the other top tier coaches out there. It's not exclusive to Coach O. So, why would he be the top choice over someone with all those "checks" who has a better HC resume?

Beating 2 crap teams with far more talent doesnt erase the previous head coaching stop.
Like i said, us playing well is more of an indictment of miles than a plus for O.
