This is garbage. Ensminger and Aranda are great friends. The idea that the staff is against each other or angry with each other is BS. This is the kind of post that really hurts morale and recruiting because it is nowhere near reality.

I'm sure that Aranda realizes the challenges facing this team and unlike the knowledgeable fans that LSU has knows that those issues are being addressed but it will take some time.

He'll be offered a HC job at the end of this year.

He is getting PAID and is on a tip 10 team with 3 games to go. Quit spewing crap like our program is in the dumps. We got mauled by Alabama like just about everyone, whipped Georgia's arse and have a shot at NewYears 6 Bowl. Yes, we need to rev up our offense.

And don't say it was because our D was on the field too much. Bama gained 320 of those yards in the first half. And they once forced 1 turnover, which was effectively the same as a punt inside the 5 yard line.


D is strength of team. No question. But facts are facts. D was on field 8 more minutes than Alabama's D and gave up 320 yards before halftime. If you're gassed because you had to play 8 more minutes in the 1st half then you need to address S&C. D was gashed, but not gassed. You're playing politics if thats your stance. That was the best BAMA offense since Saban has been there, and D White being absent hurt, but stamina non issue.

I have no idea what Aranda will or will not do. But he makes great money and gets great athletes year in & out at LSU. I would think it would have to be a position at an elite P5 school to bolt. He's not going the Kiffin route

Why did he come to LSU in the first place considering the mess that Miles had the program in at the time?

He must be considering his options. Maybe DC at gumpland.

Not long. He is probably tired of carrying the team and losing games because we refuse to evolve on offense



But he's known for putting talent in the NFL.

I think that counts for something.

Yep, I feel for Aranda. He and his unit held sabamboom to 29 points, and this dreadful offense couldn't score anything. Hell, if we had an offense that could compete and keep the defense rested accordingly, we could've beaten those bastards something like 24 to 17. Our D was on the field all damn night.

Better question is, how is it not obvious that he doesn’t give input to SE and EO? You know they go against each other at practice, and you would think that DA would say “Hey, this is pretty easy to defend and scheme around.”

I don’t care how good your D is, if they are on the field 3/4 of the game because the O can not sustain a drive, they will wear down!


LSU’s D was only on the field 58% of the time against Bama. Opposing defenses against Bama have averaged 52% this season. It’s a difference of only about 3 minutes.

LSU’s time of possession is actually better than Bama’s this season.

In NCAA 14, Aranda left my LSU team after the 2019 season. He became the head coach at ULL and 2 seasons later, they were in the top 25 season after season.

He's not going any where. He turned down A&M to stay with the Tigers. He is a true LSU man to his core!

He knows he will be the next HC at LSU. He's not going to leave the best job in college football.
