Where does Coach O rank as all time

Yea...... less than 5 years into his career here. Calm down

1 more title and he’s #1. At this point I’d have him behind Les and alongside Saban.

Saban has 2 SEC championships but Orgeron assembled a team that is considered one of the greatest in CFB history + a Heisman winner. Essentially net out in my opinion.

Ask me in 2030. But he's off to a very good start!!!!

Winning a championship isn't easy, and doing it so close to the firing of a head coach is special.

Nope! This is the rule, not the exception. Most coaches who have won a championship do it within four years of taking charge.

2020 will have an "*" no matter what the outcome is so I'm really interested to see how 2021 turns out.

Either way, the job O has done assembling staff, recruiting, program changes/upgrades and the product he has put on the field I would put him near the top of the active coaches.

All time? He's got to show sustainability and collect more hardware to even be in the conversation.

No order:

Saban
48-16
1-0 NCG
2-0 SECCG
3-2 Bowls

Miles
114-33
1-1 NCG
2-1 SECCG
7-3 Bowls

Orgeron
40-9
1-0 NCG
1-0 SECCG
4-1 Bowls

Dietzel
46-24-3
1 National Championship
1 SEC Title
1 SEC Co-Title
2-1 Bowls

Orgeron both took over mid-tier SEC teams

you are freaking out of your mind with this shite. LSU performed like a mid-tiered team but make no mistake they were loaded including in the trenches. When he took over there were 6 or more exits including a second team All SEC OLman.

If you want a comparison of Saban to anyone, Coach Arnsbarger is one that took some limited talent and KILL it in the SEC. one could argue the talent was about the same. Nobody was better than Coach Dietzel. Not Saban, not Miles and none of the rest of them.

2021 should be our next shot.

I rank him above Miles simply because the brand of football Miles insisted on fielding was unwatchable at the end of his tenure

I mean I love the 2007 championship and all but let’s be real here. A 2 loss national champion that needed so much help from outside forces to even get a shot is what Les did. The guy was a good but not great coach. My whole point of this thread was if O is able to keep the team winning without the goat QB and all of everything else that they lost, he’s gotta be in the mix with all time greats like Jimmy Johnson and Pete Carrol.
