will believe in O when he wins on Saturdays the way Saban and Miles did 10 plus years ago. Anything else is not acceptable!

And I can respect that. What I can't respect is if you were on a mission to destroy coach O, like many on the rant do. If you want to speak on what he's done both good and bad, that's fine but not everything he's doing is a bad thing for LSU.

Many times I sat here wondering why our biggest recruits were not coming to our camps but going to Bama's or someone else's. Well even in a year where I would understand if Lee or another WR wouldn't come, they still came. That in itself is a good sign, yes it's his "job" but this is a change for the good.

Not many coaches in America can do what Saban's doing and has been since coming to LSU (btw even when he was at Michigan State I saw how special he was as a HC and wanted him here when many didn't). Les Miles took over a completely different set of circumstances and we all saw how that ended.

I don't see Saban in coach O but I honestly do see that he knows how to get the best out of his players. He looks for tough players with a good head, no matter their ranking. We will soon see how they perform on the field. Given what O took over, which was a mix of talent and depleted depth, I have to give him a fair chance, no matter what he did at OM, now that he's the HC. I wouldn't have hired him BUT that's done. That's all I'm saying. Give the man his fair due to get what he wants here and do what he can do.

He's hardly letting the talent drop. I see much more depth and potential than I did with Miles. He's got a tough schedule this year but he has to win games and I'm in full agreement with that. He has the perfect chance to prove himself this year. He does need to do that IMO.
