Could you imagine the excitement in the program with a top notch OC. We know Aranda is going to wreck shop next year, hopefully E can turn in a respectable 60's rated offense. An Aranda D and a top 30 offense might be able to squeeze in the playoff.

The problem was the QBs he had getting the ball out to those WRa.

Outside Mett it was pretty despressing

Like no one ever even transferred from here and had success.

Honestly that wasn't the problem. He got good QB recruits they just couldnt coach them after they got them.

Eh I think It was an issue

Harris was a good recruit but never improved and even a change to supposedly more QB friendly system didn’t help him.

jenning sucked at ULL.

Rivers couldn’t win the job at Vandy
McMillan is OK at Tulane.

And by “wreck shop” I hope we at least crack the top 10 in scoring defense.

Now I also Don’t think we made it easy for them.

I think what Cam and Les asked them to do wasn’t that far off from what Cam was asking Flacco to do. Not as complex but not simple enough for college kids.

Harris was a highly rated 4 star. So was Jennings.
Rivers was never going to be anything more than a backup QB. Neither was McMillan honestly.

I mean I thought It was all System too, but then Harris sucked at UNC. Like really sucked.

And Jennings just wasn’t good.

Can you honestly say with a straight face that Ensminger is a top tier OC?

There are far more complex systems in college football.

Dang Roger, the Fiesta win vs G5 was like Holy Grail shite last week.
I imagine making CFP would keep staff intact, like or not.

I mean they were talented in High School. We just didnt make them work. Because we always recruited DT Qbs when all we wanted to do was have them turn around and hand the ball off

So you’re saying we’re all just as excited about the offense as we would be if we had a top notch OC even though you won’t say we have a top notch OC?

You are right. This year will be the test. I think coach E ‘s job is on the line in 2019 and i hope he is successful
