Sorry I miscounted. It's 1-8 about to be 1-9.
As in "LSU's record vs. Alabama in the last 9 games is 1-8"

Yeah, you're definitely not cripplingly insecure.

We need a real OC, Ensminger helped us win the NC, but he really isn’t a qualified OC. If he was, don’t you think someone would have inquired about hiring him, similar to what happened to Aranda. Go back to last year and review how good LSU’s offense was compared to LSU’s offense this year. Unless we hire a real OC, I expected to see a big drop off in 2020 in offense productivity.

You simply do not know that. You have no idea what is going on inside LSU football right now. E may be looking to get out completely or step down to a lesser role.

There is no evidence to believe otherwise. LSU will come back to the pack in a big way next year, and the pack is only getting better with the quality of coaching hires in the last few years.
Well that’s just a stupid take. You think Orgeron is going to just abandon a successful scheme just because Brady left? That’s just ignorant to assume he will.

Great choice of words, because the only ceiling LSU has it what it imposes on itself by hiring a shrimp boat captain to run their program. 1-9. Soon to be 1-10.
So you are insulting the current LSU head coach but using statistics prior to him being head coach as an insult against him? Not very bright are you? Oh yeah... Bama fan... of course you aren’t very bright.

It didn’t matter how much we fought we weren’t keeping Brady.
I haven't seen the contract details yet, but I would imagine David Tepper is going to give Brady a big, big check based on the contract they gave Rhule. Any college athletic department (and wealthy boosters) would have a hard time matching a billionaire hedge fund manager with reckless abandon and a blank check.

This team wins 7 games next year if Ensminger is the OC

Oh look, an insecure Bama fan to make sure his team gets mentioned in a thread that has nothing to do with them. Congrats on your guys not shitting the bed against a horrible Michigan team I guess.

The reason being because that was Brady’s offense.
Actually, you're wrong. When Brady came to LSU after Ensminger recommended to Ed O to hire him, he brought with him the Saint's offense and some really new and innovative techniques for coaching and training wide receivers.
However, with respect to the new LSU offensive playbook, it was a cooperative collaboration between Brady and Ensminger, as Ensminger was the one who knew how to convert the Saints' offense so it could work in the college game.
As that new offense was a collaboration between Brady and Ensminger, with feedback from Joe Burrow. While Ensminger as the OC had the full authority to say yay or nay with respect to everything that went into that new LSU offensive playbook.
Furthermore, Ensminger was also the primary playcaller.
Finally, all of those new and innovative techniques that Brady brought with him to coach and train wide receivers will remain at LSU for as long as they remain useful.
Hence, losing Brady is not this really big deal like so many ill-informed people are trying to make it out to be.

Ensminger has done well calling plays with an experienced QB and a chêne in place. We saw that in 2016 and 2019. He’s only really been on his own at LSU in 2018 and two things were an issue:
1) His QB options were either very poor or green at the time.
2) Burrow came in to the team in August and was learning an entirely new offense.
The offense was up and down but showed flashes throughout the season. Two of our top 3 WRs this year were true freshmen, Moss wasn’t playing and Brossette was getting the lionshare of the touches at RB.
The OL also struggled last season and showed great improvement this year.
It all came together and next season, LSU will arguably be more talented in the backfield with Emery hopefully stepping up. They will bring back Chase and Marshall out wide with some serious talent there to replace Jefferson.
The #1 TE in the country coming in and while the line had some losses, they have depth there and not to mention a 5* OT coming back from injury.
They need to hit the right hire for a WR coach/passing game coordinator to help out E again, but the pieces are there to succeed.

Even if he was back to being the OC alone, as in 2018, that wouldn’t happen. They won 10 games and should have had 11 with a less talented and experienced offense that season. There is no fricking way they drop 5 games next year.
That said, I highly doubt he will be coaching alone again. He will be calling plays and gameplaning with whoever Brady’s replacement is.

Which makes it all that more confounding as to why we just don't go out and hire an actual OC. And that's nothing against Ensminger. We all know and appreciate what he's done for LSU.
What we're basically looking for is someone to be our offensive coordinator, but not actually have the title or pay associated with an offensive coordinator. That's a tough sell.
The reason why Ed O doesn't simply go out and hire another OC is that he knows he has a very good one already. Hence, since he isn't nearly as severely mentally deficient as you obviously are, he's not stupid enough to go out and hire someone he doesn't need.

After winning the Broyles award Brady said in his acceptance speech that Ensminger should be the person winning the award as opposed to him.
As Ensminger shuns the spotlight like it is the plague.
Sure Brady brought the Saint's playbook to LSU, but it was Ensminger that knew how to convert it to work for college football. As that new LSU playbook was a collaboration between Brady and Ensminger, with feedback from Joe Burrow. As Ensminger had the final say on everything that went into that playbook. If he didn't like it, it didn't get put in that playbook.
Furthermore, Ensminger was the primary playcaller as well.
Hence, the loss of Brady is not nearly as big of a deal low-information people like you are trying to make it out to be.
