You’re posting some type of rallying cry in every thread.

Just what are you proposing all of us satisfied and apathetic fans should do?

Sit around, gnashing our teeth all day?

I didn’t want any of this shite, but it’s done. They will succeed or fail on their own merits.

I hope they succeed.

You can't have a trajectory from one season. That's my problem with the O haters. I didn't like the hire either but we don't know what the trajectory is under O based on one season. Next year, we'll know a lot more.

I think We have some idea what we’re going to look like.

Expect what we saw in 2016

Only without Guice and younger WRs and a Sophmore QB

We might but up 500 yards on shittier teams but We saw what we’ll look like vs good defenses.

we need to do what programs like Michigan did when they had a rally to fire their AD, we need to let everyone know that this shite is not good enough, that were not satisfied or apathetic, and we wont sit here year after year as a bad HC makes bad hires and just say "well i hope they succeed this time".

The biggest problem I have with your post is the “sit back and see” thing.

1. It’s almost like you are saying “well if it’s a shite show O and Alleva will be gone”. To that I say have you met FKing? He spends less time thinking about the football program (other than the budget and how much he can force athletics to chip in to general fund) than you did writing your post. Is O gonna quit or Alleva? Who fires them?

2. Lets say it is a shite show and FKing doesn’t want to make changes but the BoS does. How is that good for LSU.

3. Let’s say we aren’t terrible but say 8-5. Again you are counting on FKing and the board.

It’s almost like you are saying well we just might be getting f’d in the rear but lay back and enjoy it. FKing has got this.

To which I ask what in the term of FKing at LSU leads you to believe he has the wisdom or will to fix LSU football or if he even cares enough to?

I enjoyed how SE was firey in his introduction presser.

However, I am uncertain if it was confidence, or delusion. Guess we'll find out in a few months

Here's my problem. We finally get a couple of qb's on the roster with great potential and we don't bring in someone who can develop them. Also, if you are a high profile offensive recruit, are you salivating at the chance to play for Ensminger. I like SE and think he is a loyal Tiger. I just think he is the wrong hire for a program in transition. That being said, I hope he proves me wrong.

I think with a great QB, we could beat them with that Offense.



You can say this with any offense. It's time people stop talking about how we don't have great qbs and start talking about the offenses that are seemingly creating great qbs yearly with inextraordinary talents.

If this were some professional football team, we can take a "wait and see" attitude..is there any other quality SEC schools making such shortsided hiring decisions?

Has SE, not been allowed to work with QBs since he has been on staff?? "Steve, please do not work with our QBs,that's not your job..just work with our TEs on the two passing routes they run"...i call bullshite on SE's comments regarding developing QBs and anyone who buys into that narrative

WHO is the BEST OC out there. If 10 were presented to this board there would be serious flaws imagined with everyone of them. WHO on this board is qualified to judge an OC and what are the standards? There is NO WAY Coach O has a shot at satisfying the majority of "experts" assembled here. I am so glad that recruits aren't judging LSU or the staff by ignorant comments made on TIger Rant. Ridiculous

Ensminger is not the best OC in college football. You will only find one not so great coach who thinks that. We are no longer searching for the best staff instead we're just surrounding a weak head coach with coaches he likes.
