Fine LosTigres25, you are correct. No bias whatsoever in your post. I suppose it is by definition "objective" to find a reason to dismiss everything positive the man has done and to point out every flaw.

For me (someone who was mildly displeased by the O hire) I have been pleasantly surprised. I think we can both agree that the test for O (and frankly the test for all current college coaches not named Saban, Meyer and potentially Dabo and Jimbo) lies in the future.

But for now, my opinion is that O is doing a bang up job as the LSU head coach. Better than expected. Maybe not the A given by the OP but certainly not the disaster many feared. I would give him a solid B+ and trending upward.

Exactly. So lets keep the kneepads off until then.

I hope I didnt come across as someone that doesnt give O any credit for anything. Obviously, he has some talent and has done plenty of things right thus far.

But at the end of the day, you have to win games.

"Promising","holding down the fort" and "made the right decision here" was already expected. There's no brownie points for that. He was handed one of the greatest opportunities ever in the history of the sport.
Until he has some conference hardware, its tough for me to say hes done a bang up job. Thats just me, I guess.
I have super high expectations, especially now that we have some decent QB play. Just win baby!
