Because Orgeron wasn’t an offensive coach and Ensminger was here and didn’t have 2019 success. Denbrock ran BK’s offense. BK has said that clear as day on a couple of occasions

The real reason is that some fans/posters are very petty. Brady was also shite upon when he left for the pros. Denbrock ran the offense, end of story. BK may have initially installed it at ND, or sometimes have input, but it was Denbrock's offense. Denbrock was a good coach. He was not just a puppet.

You really don't have any clue of Ensminger's offense prior to 2019, do you?

When Ensminger took over play-calling duties in 2016 for the Tigers, LSU’s offense had been stagnant, scoring only nine touchdowns and averaging 18 points and 339.5 total yards per game through four games. In eight games under Ensminger that year, LSU improved drastically in every offensive category as the Tigers averaged 32 points and 464.9 total yards per contest during that span. LSU scored 38 or more points five times under Ensminger, including 54 in a win over Texas A&M and 38 against both Arkansas and Ole Miss. The Tigers averaged 7.1 yards per play and converted 46-of-102 third-down opportunities during that eight-game stretch.
Also under Ensminger, LSU’s 2016 offense set then school records for yards in a SEC game (634 vs. Missouri), single-game rushing yards by an individual (284 by Leonard Fournette vs. Ole Miss, 285 by Derrius Guice vs. Texas A&M), longest run from scrimmage (96 yards by Derrius Guice vs. Arkansas) and time of possession (42:33 vs. Missouri).
Individually, Ensminger’s offense produced a pair of all-America selections in center Ethan Pocic and Guice at running back. Pocic was a finalist for the Remington Award as the nation’s top center, while Guice rushed for 1,387 yards and 15 touchdowns and eclipsed the 200-yard rushing mark twice.
Everyone wants to give Brady all the credit, but Ensminger played a large part in our offensive success in 2019.

Why does it have to be an either or? Both Ensminger and Brady contributed a lot to the success of the offense. Steve wasn't just sitting there while Joe Brady ran the whole thing
