re: How many of you were won over by O yesterday?

One game shouldn’t win over anyone or lose anyone. I don’t feel any different about Coach O today then I did yesterday.
Damn good win, but ask me after the season is over or when we win the West.

Did Miles win you over in September and October of 2015?

Miami was an absolute mess of a team and Auburn gift wrapped that win in the end. It doesn't take a genius to see our offense is still bad and we still don't have even an above average qb
I'm an O doubter as much as anyone, but I don't think it's fair to minimize two top 10 wins in the first 3 weeks. It's an amazing accomplishment. A long ways to go, but he deserves praise right now.

I wasn't pro or con. I've always believed, since he was hired, give him a chance. He deserves his chance.
Its looking positive. He has made the right moves, Burrow, Tracey, Traore, and Lewis, to shore up the glaring deficits of the roster. We have already seen the results.
Keep looking up!

Its just an observation on the offense. He can recruit, he can motivate.. I even give him credit for massively improving special teams. The bar has been lowered if anyone is excited. This is not a title contender and won't be until we have an offense to go with the defense. Bama and Georgia are in another class

The expectations had been lowered so much that we were talking about if he'd win more or less than 7 wins.
The rub with O was always whether or not he was going to be able to improve upon what he did last season. Thus far he appears to have, but there's a lot of season left.

Fewer than five, not “less” than. Fewer denotes a specific integral value while less is nonspecific.
It’ll take more than two wins over Auburnt to convince me. He has to lead this team to a championship. Until then, he is an interloper to me. Granted, I give him credit where due as I have done for the record. Win the West and I will have a lot more respect for his abilities as a HC. Fair enough?

He didn’t win me over but definitely has earned the benefit of the doubt for now.

This. Have no reason to really complain thus far. Not quite there yet though.

I guess I was watching a different game...

Same. We didn't make a head coaching change because we were a bad team. We did it because we weren't contending for championships anymore. Ultimately, Orgeron will be judged on whether or not he's doing that.
Yesterday was a big step in the right direction.

I'm not won over yet. 3 games into the season isn't enough to do it for me. But that was an impressive win over a tough Auburn team yesterday.
But in my opinion, we aren't seeing anything we hadn't seen when Miles was here. A dominate defense, good special teams and enough offense to get the job done.
The offensive lapses concern me. Second half of the Miami game, Second half of the SE Louisiana game and the middle of yesterday's game need to be addressed.
If, and it's a big if, o can keep this team focused and playing ball like they did during the first and fourth quarter yesterday, this team can easily win double digit games.

I am just enjoying the win... and it was a good win..
as far as being "won over..."
I said this before and I will say it again.. I evaluate new coaches based upon 3 years at the head of the program... at that point I think we will all have a decent idea where CEO is taking LSU..

The coaches would be the first to tell you the offense from the second and third quarters needs work.

I've had no reason to doubt O or E (no one has). I've just been waiting for them to prove or disprove themselves. Now, I have reason to believe they are capable of putting together a championship team.

How many of you were won over by O yesterday?
Hell. If it's last year's kickers kicking, we might not have even won! LOL.
And, if people had used that to prove O a failure, that would also be silly.
The season will tell. I'm content to wait and see

O was never an elite coach by any stretch in my mind when he was hired. I looked at the hire like it was an interim type hire to rebuild our team and get 10 wins for a season or two until another elite coach came along.
He loves LSU and bleeds P&G so he’s ok in my book. Kids like to play for a firey guy like that so you never know , they may respond better to him than they would a CEO guy like Miles who was a pushover.
