Is this something that will give any future offensive recruits some pause? I know we're still hopeful for a QB recruit this year, so we HAVE to bring in a QB coach, right?
Would obviously be something other schools would use to negatively recruit against LSU.

I'm sure recruits would be thrilled to join a 60 year old who's never been a successful OC even once in his life

Age is no big deal. How old is Nick?

It’s easy to be a good recruiter as a position coach for a program

Different when you’re the coordinator or HC

Great idea, let’s post this on the recruiting board that recruits read and plant ideas in their heads with national signing day in a month.

I'm totally against Ensminger as OC, but this is demonstrably false.

Terrace Marshall has already said having Ensminger here and as a potential OC is one of the main reasons he chose to come to LSU

Given that Canada's offense statistically was not better than Ensminger, no. In fact, it might be more concerning that Canada's offense couldn't make a yard in critical short yard situations.

However I'm still hopeful that we'll land a highly regarded OC before signing date.

247 shows him as our best recruiter at #15 nationally

only other LSU coach who is near his rank is Dennis Johnson at #36

Dave Aranda is ranked #295

Matt Canada is #343

we need coaches who can recruit in the worst way

As for this years recruiting class, we are only after one other offensive player, Jamar Chase, who is expecting to commit this weekend. So, no I don't see any immediate impact on recruiting. Personally, he did a great job last year. Coach O is the head coach and he actually wanted to hire him last year but fell victim to the pressure of hiring a so called big time offensive coordinator. Let Coach O ride or die with Ensminger

All i did was post his numbers. You are actually trying to say he was better with someone elses offense than they were?
