At best, they’re going to get basically the same results they got under Miles: an elite recruiting class that completely underperforms and loses to Bama every single year.
I worked with a couple of LSU fans when they extended him. I can tell you first hand they were not happy. I know this because I laughed when I saw them that next workday. No amusement in response, at all. I said nothing, just laughed...

It's funny too; Orgeron isn't even recruiting all that well. LSU will always pull in a certain level of recruit just because of local talent, but under Miles it was a string of top-5 classes; right now, LSU is closer to a top 10-15 recruiting program, and that's not a good path for Easy Ed sticking around in Baton Rouge.

10-3
8-5
If the 8-5 is the blip on the radar then yeah he has bailed us out big time.
UM loses to their rivals every year and struggles mightly against teams with winning records. Lets see what happens this year. If it is a repeat of last year you can bet the doubters will begin to increase in numbers. Right now I don't think we as fans should be critical of another program.

with a 9-3ish season and a loss to OSU pretty much every year. Yeah, that's better than 5-7, but not what Harbaugh's being paid for.

I really wish he'd stop calling the Interception Play against OSU. O'Korn executed it perfectly but I had to question the call.
Harbaugh & Co called a whale of a game against OSU last year.
Now if he'd only had gone with the quarterback of the champion intra-mural team, he'd have won.
Oh, and BTW, he went out and got Shea to address the situation. And Drevno is no longer with the program.
We're you (DeepBlueC) part of the crowd trashing Beilein a couple of years ago? Who would you replace Harbaugh with? C'mon, I want concrete suggestions for a better program.
Don't forget the questionable defensive playcall of "drop interception in the endzone" by Metellus. I know Don Brown has a plan, but in hindsight it was a bad one by him.
This fanbase sometimes just likes to delusionally complain, and no moreso than in the offseason.
played for a national title just 7 seasons ago. They've won 2 national titles this century. They also haven't come close to losing season (winning at least 8 games a year) since the turn of the century.
Michigan would absolutely kill for that resume right now.
I think Orgeron is going to be fine at LSU. They just need to find some consistent offense.
Cajun Brady Hoke. Squandering the talent base of a rich recruiting area isn't exactly a formula for job security. It isn't just Alabama. When LSU starts getting thumped regularly by Auburn, Miss St, A&M--schools with talent nearly or as good but with much better coaching---he'll be out quick.
Bruce Feldman wrote a pretty good book about college football recruiting ("Meat Market") that focuses on Coach O when he was at Ole Miss. The impression I got from reading it is that Coach O has a singleminded focus on recruiting, and doesn't pay much attention to other things.
