Brady on O hiring him: "I think it was a pretty damn good decision"

Calling his hiring a pretty damn good decision is a huge understatement. O hit the ultimate jackpot with this hire. Between this and his "they can't f'ing stop us" comment in the booth, I LOVE Brady's confidence. And it shows in the offense. He can back it up, and then some.

Joe Brady, the team’s passing game coordinator and receivers coach, does not lack in confidence when asked about the risk it took to hire him. “If you ask me, I think it was a pretty damn good decision,” says Brady. “It might be something that could rub people the wrong way, and they could sit there and say, ‘Why this or that?’ But Coach had a clear-cut vision of what he was looking for. We were looking for the exact same thing. Our visions matched.”
quote:
Ensminger and Brady, separated by more than 30 years in age, work in tandem to create the game plan and call the plays. Ensminger decides when Brady gets the call. “Hey, you got it on this one!” the 61-year-old will say. “It’s all predicated on how he’s feeling and if he’s in a groove,” Brady says. Sometimes Brady gets a third-down play. Other times he calls an entire drive.
quote:
When he arrived in Baton Rouge in January, Brady knew of LSU’s offensive perception—run the football and play good defense, he says—but he never really looked at it from a “Hey, LSU has never done this type thing.” He realized quickly when his phone after the Texas game was bombarded with texts. “How does it feel!?!” many of them said. His response: I don’t know. “I just have no idea. We’re in season. We play all these dang night games. You have success in a night game, you wake up and go back into work. It’s a new week.”

Ensminger is slowly teaching him all the nuances of being the head playcaller and offensive coordinator and is slowly taking off the training wheels.
I'm calling a Slinger retirement after this season with Brady being named full time OC.

I’m all for giving Ensminger another year to help out the transition. Run it back another year as long as all are in favor of it. Brady is still young and inexperienced. But if Coach O thinks he is ready then turn him loose.

I wouldn’t mind keeping Ensminger on staff if he wasn’t ready to retire. He could always coach TE’s again, and I think he would be content on being a position coach again.

I'm thinking we should consider rehiring Canada. If he's not available, Cam Cameron will be.

My guess would be that SE moves to a consultative role on the staff.

There are a ton of mundane duties an OC is required to do. If B, E, and O are all happy with things, I see no reason for rushing the full workload onto Brady's shoulders.
As long as Brady gets paid (and he doesn't feel that his offense is getting handcuffed), things should work out fine.

THIS
RIGHT
HERE
when i saw the first game, i was like, well let's see if they keep it up
when burrow went off against texas, you had to pinch yourself and ask if it's real

For a refreshing change I’d love to see someone have some success and develop a body of work for more than, let’s say, three games, before they start beating their chests and proclaiming themselves the goat, and of course tap the brakes on the anointing oil.
