re: Will 1 full season be enough to know if coaching change was the right move?

replacing coordinators is huge. Les struggled with it. It will take 3-4 years to see a full O-recruited roster and hopefully at least that long until he has to replace one or both coordinators.
Once that happens, we can safely pass judgement.

I don't think Coach O gets 3-4 years. If we win only 7 or 8 games the next 2 yrs there will be massive pressure to replace him.

It isn't like Oregon just started recruiting for LSU but I agree in the importance of measuring him by recruiting. I think we can start doing that in year one. So I'm leaning more towards judging him by his first recruiting class rather than how many wins he gets for this season. Right now he's loosing that battle but that's because the season hasn't started yet and there are so many unknowns for other teams to take advantage of on the recruiting trail. If he and Canada can do enough to generate excitement about the offense (whatever that takes) they can still put together a solid class and that would earn him another year in my mind.

We didn't do that. We only replaced Cam and we did that ten months ago. O at LSU three years. We have other coaches here two on more years. We have had a number of years in a row where recruiting was judged to be top ten in the nation by those not in Louisiana.
This is not the normal fire and hire situation. Even in this decline from 2013-2015, LSU still ranked second in the SEC for overall winning percentage nationally. A hell of lot more will be expected from O than what was expected from other LSU coaches who were hired after a losing LSU coach was fired.
Three to four years to recover is ridiculous. O needs to win ten this season and he needs to figure out a way to stop losing talented Louisiana HS players NOW.
