Ed Orgeron Sets The Record Straight On Who Was Running LSU's Offense Last Year

It was all Brady. What do you expect O to say? Ole Steve gonna be lost without the wonder boy.

Came here just to read the couch potato coaches comments, and they didn’t disappoint !!!

that's coachspeak. Last year's offensive production was 90% Brady. What's O supposed to say?

I will say this: every time the tv cameras showed the coaches booth, I saw Brady talking most of the time and Ensminger just sitting there I’m not saying Steve didn’t do anything. But the camera don’t lie. It was NOT 70% Steve imo

Jeezus peeps what are we arguing here? Brady came here to teach Ensminger the spread and he sure did. Ensminger did a great job all year and thank you MR.BRADY for your services. We all won last year Brady got paid and LSU got a NATTY. Drops mic

Saying that Ensminger was the playcaller for the vast majority of the offense, and the offense will be the same, is what most of us have been saying. The problem though, is that LSU was like a master class in the redzone, Brady's portion. Good Redzone passing is the difference between a 15-20 TD passer and a 30-40 TD passer (13 games). LSU was so far and away better than anybody else, it was ridiculous. Appalachian St looks better with less attempts until you realize they only played 2 teams ranked in the top 30 in opponent redzone conversions % while LSU played 4 in the top 19. Ohio St was the next closest in rating, but Burrow's cmp% was 11% higher and Ohio St would have needed to score 6 TDs on their next 14 passes in the RZ to match us. Will he be able to replicate any of that?

Most of you people are pathetic. I expect these type of comments from opposing teams but not our fans. I’m not sure what y’all were watching when Ensminger took over in 2016 and 18 but those two offenses weren’t terrible at all. We had a different team and style of offense then. The way in which plays were called still confused defenses and kept them off balance for the most part. If it weren’t for our RZ TD issues in 2018, we may have made the playoffs that year as well. LSU drove the field on everyone but Bama. We kicked a ton of FGs. We will have another great team in 2020 if we have that opportunity to play. Wow some of our fans are pathetic.

I don't understand why people find this so hard to believe. Coach E is actually a damn good OC, y'all forgot this man called a brilliant game while going through a horrific tragedy. Plus this season ain't about Ensminger it's about QB Myles Brennan and the OL gelling, this offense will be ran smoothly.

I think we will go 4-2 or maybe 5-1 this year. No matter; just hope we beat the gumps again with all their 5 stars. I truly hate that program

I think we scored TDs on about 30% of our plays.....

I hope he did but somehow I kinda doubt it. We'll know within the first couple of games whether or not this was true.

Well, we'll see this season if there is an upcoming season if Steve Ensminger is indeed the playcaller that had them rolling last season.

cue the Ben Affleck gif

What does it matter. Thank Brady for his service and move on. Emsminger will (hopefully) have every opportunity to remind the world that his fingerprints were all over last years offense.

So was it 75% or 70%?

Okay, so we will have a much better defense and the offense will be just as productive as last year! Sounds like another NC is we can play this fall.

30% of the calls came in the red zone. That was all Brady.

Come on man! Let's be honest. Joe Brady was the key to our success on offense last year. No disrespect to Coach Ensminger but he just agreed the calls Joe made. I just hope Coach E learned enough to keep the train on the same speed and trajectory as last year.

Haha, sure Ed, no one but the LSU fans believe you.

People need to lay off this. CEO and CSE have earned the right to be given the benefit of the doubt.
