re: You are now seeing why the governor is at practices.

But why would O even want to hire Ensminger, even if he can?

It’s very simple, O is extremely insecure because he’s not cut out for the job. He’d rather Ensminger, old, wise LSU booster favorite in his ear telling him “your the best, you can do it” more than a young hot shot like Canada saying “get the frick out of my way and let me do what you’re paying $1.5/year to do!”

The big O has Politcal support to do what he wants.

It does make sense to me. Edwards wasn't just at the bowl practices, he flew to the Tennessee game on the team plane, and who knows when else he's been around Orgeron, someone mentioned commercials.

O is trying to curry political favor and backing. O needs the BOS to support him; the BOS needs the governor to support them.

I doubt the OC hire is the reason for this, I think O is trying to loosen the leash. If there is some question of letting him go, his buddy JBE can say "come on, give my buddy a little more time".
Of course, unless Edwards is reelected, it's a shortsighted plan; but I definitely can see this happening now. Edwards even made a point of praising O's hire, so maybe there was some shite at work behind the scenes a couple years ago.

I’m with you

Even Steve himself doesn’t want it. Only O

The good news is there’s a 95% chance Jeff Landry will defeat JBE in fall of ‘19.

There’s a whole lot of warmth in her face in that picture. See how tight she’s gripping his hand? Hmmmmm

Does this remind anyone of Texas and Mack Brown? Seems there are lots of hands in the cookie jar.
