1. Offensive Game Planning
2. Quarterbacks Coach
3. TEs Coach- A damn good one at that, even though Peterson dropped a shite ton of passes, and the combined amount of catches by our TEs is probably somewhere between 10-20.
4. Associate Head Coach/Miles' right hand man


Nothing. So I was right. Thanks.

Peterson was the 4th leading receiver on the team. TEs accounted for about 15% of our receiving yardage which isn't bad in Crowton's offense.
That doesn't take into account the blocking ability of that group. All of which according to you is not important enough to coach.

I never wrote that. I think it should be coached. I just don't think we should have a coach dedicated to coaching it because it is such an insignificant part of football.

Let the oline coach teach the TEs blocking, and let the WR coach teach the TEs receiving. It's simple.

True O-line versus TE's / H-backs; two way totaly diferent things. That is what separates people who actually know what actually goes on versus JOE-BLOW that watches the game on TV or from the stands really knows. Or maybe that is what separates the game from people that have played or coached it at high level from people that sit in their living room and tell every one what they think they know. What level of ball did you play or know?

You're overlooking one thing: We probably used an H-Back less than 10 times this year.

Your whole argument is Ensminger is worthless because he isn't raiding Texas on the recruiting trail and YOU don't see what he brings to the table. The truth is you don't know what he brings to the table. You don't know what he brings to the TE position, you don't know his impact on recruiting, and you don't know how heavily he is involved in game planning.
The basis of your argument is you don't know.

Ensminger was absolutely worthless for Auburn, don't know how good he is for LSU.

Do you have those stats broken down? Share that percentage with us. Number one, Miles wants to run a PRO STYLE offense. Number two, do you even know the difference between personel groups? How most colleges name them etc. Having a TE coach is very important to any multiple offense which is what LSU is and what they are going to be. You must not watch to much of the game, LSU uses MULTIPLE TE's regularly in their offense. just another ignorant fan. How many times have you seen more than one TE in the game for LSU this year. I'll tell you; ALOT!
