Obviously the ceiling is the Natty baby. But what do you think is his floor? Basically, the minimum that O can do without getting canned.

9-3 I think he survives. 8-4 gets him fired after last year imo

8-4 (& a bowl win) I think a 7-5 season with all these players returning is wholly unacceptable.

agreed, 9-3 possibly gets us a NY6 in a perfect storm.

Im not sure if 8-4 is enough grounds to fire him, given that you probably will get a good bowl game out of it that would be winnable.

Im thinking 7-5 maybe, 6-6 for sure.

7-5 gets him fired, but 8-4 gets his seat really hot

4 losses (regular or post season) and he's done.

100%. You have to prove that 2020 was a freak accident that won't happen again for another 20 years. I expect to see a total transformation, not marginal improvement. Honestly, I personally need to see 10 wins total to stay with O.

UCLA
McNeese
Central Michigan
State

Auburn
Kentucky
UF
Ole Miss
Bama
Arkansas
ULM

A&M
Bowl Game

Given the schedule and level of returning starters, this should be the correct answer .

Anything less than 8 wins and O's seat will be flaming hot, even 8 wins will have O on the inferno seat. He has to bring back the 10 win standard this season.

0 will not be fired for 7-8 wins this year.

8-4 would be a bad look.... 7-5 and he may still hang on... 6-6 and he is gone......

Is a 3 win improvement with a schedule that swaps 2 conference games for 3 cupcakes really an improvement.

Whatever the consensus is here, subtract a win and you’ll have the real answer. Reality is 7-5 puts him on a hot seat with the feeling around the team being the possible straw.

I think it depends who losses are to and how bad they are. Really Bama is the only acceptable loss on our schedule and that game should be competitive. If we have have 2 or 3 close losses against Bama, UF, A&M or Auburn, and a close loss bowl game would be the worst season he should keep his job. If there are blowout losses and or losses to ole miss and UCLA. It will be a real negative place around Baton Rouge. I think we will have a good team though so no need to dwell on that.
