Never have been and hopefully never will be!

But This is the rant!

It takes the best team and best season in college football history not to hear constant bitching! Amazing

Well, we've never had a really good one until last season. Now we know how good things can be.

The reasons ppl are concerned are because A. The passing game coordinator was the OC last year, B. The years Ensminger has run the offense it’s been horrible vs good competition and C. Because anyone who’s watched Linehan knows he’s not good.

There’s another question.. Orgeron has completely overhauled the offense every single season he’s been here. With Brady gone and him choosing Linehan over Munoz or Lombardi, do we know for certain that we’re going to be running the offense we ran this past season?

We went from Stone Age to the greatest offensive exhibition college football has ever witnessed. Any changes from the staff that enables that would be met with concern.

I personally think we will be fine. I don’t expect to see exactly what I saw with this past team, but it will be entertaining and we will have a chance to win every game again next year.

True but E’s problem was never play calling. He has always been good at that he just needed someone to come in to help install a new style which is done. Now Ensminger is the same great play caller with a better playbook.

Linehan has had some good offenses when he had good talent. LSU is going to have plenty of good and great talent.

Geez are people still running off the assumption that Coach O is just a dumb d line coach? Yes they are going to run the same offense that just broke numerous national records and won a national championship.

This board is full of morons. People on this board would have celebrated had Jorge Munoz been named passing game coordinator and he has no where near the skins on the wall Scott Linehan has.

A - I'll bet no one even knew we had a PGC until last year. 2 - The position probably never existed until recently, I know a year ago I had no idea there was a such thing. C - Before two months ago nobody ever heard of any of these guys. 4 - Let the coaches coach and players play, just be a fan.

Whatever the frick Coach O is doing at LSU it's working like a fricking boss.

If Coach O slams Monsters, Im gonna slam Monsters. If Coach O takes a crap with his pants on, Im gonna take a crap with my pants on.

If Coach O says Linehan is the best fit to replace Joe Brady, then Linehan is the best fit to replace Joe Brady.

As long as we stick with the basic spread/RPO, we’ll be fine. You put your five guys out there and let your quarterback make the decision who to get it to. Linehan can complement this with technique teaching, qb development, and playcalling within the system.

Now ... if we start hearing about and seeing “checkdowns,” and “primary and secondary receivers,” then I’ll be concerned.

I was pretty stoked when LSU hired Billy Gonzales from UF. Believing he was a disciple of Mullen and having confidence he could bring those spread concepts to LSU and develop some of our dual threat QBs to look more like what Mullen likes to have.

It was that point that i realized, without any doubt, Miles had no desire or intention to ever chance his offense.

What are people basing this on. His last couple years in Dallas? Okay that's fair but you also have to look at his accomplishments too

12 Years he served as an OC in the NFL
8 of those years he fielded a top 10 offense
4 of those years it was top 5

Developed Danted Culpepper into a top ten NFL Qb who had his best season under Linehan and he regressed after he left

Developed Matt Stafford into top ten NFL QB including a 5000 yard season he regressed after he left.

Remember O had never succeeded as a head coach before he was hired at LSU and he knocked out the park.

Now we have a guy that has been successful more times than he hasn't running an offense and he sucks because his last couple seasons he tried to make magic out of the dumpster fire that is the Dallas Cowboys organization.

This is why I hate LSU fans. Can I please get some enjoyment and optimism after the greatest college football season ever. Without people shitting all over every move made in the offseason because they think they are smarter than the dude making millions of dollars to run this thing and exceeding literally everyone's expectations

These are the same ones who only saw Coach O as the failed Ole Miss Coach. They were wrong then and they can't let it go. The next thing you k now they will be trying to Impeach Coach O for interviewing but not hiring the guy they wanted,... Oh, wait...

Probably because the lack of confidence in the actual OC if we are being honest

It’s an analyst position that gets to work with players. It doesn’t bother me at all.
