It was Orgeron who changed the offense. He brought in Brady to implement the offense he envisioned.
Miles ran the offense he liked no matter the OC.

Miles ran an aggressive prostyle in 2005-2007, it won 11-12 games a season and a BCS title.

Due to QB issues, that style had us at 7-5 regular season in 2008. He shut that down, went to Ground-n-Pound, and with our talent had them winning 9-11 games and back into the the BCS title game.
That, objectively, was a safe, "smart" move on his part. There was only one team in the country that we couldn't beat just on talent... unfortunately that team was in our division.
That ultimately cost him his job, and a lot of public sentiment afterwards.

O's not in the same position, the ultra-aggressive offense has HELPED his team, not hurt it. He's not going to be tempted to shut things down, if anything he might be tempted to open it up more.

In 2007 Crowton had the reigns. LSU was wide open and ran the new "Pistol" formation. Then Jarrett Lee threw a billion pick 6's and Miles took over the offense until he was fired in 2016.
