If nothing else, I believe what Steve E says he’s going to try to do.

Agreed

Basically says we have to put 3 or 4 receivers on the field, we have to run more RPO’s, and we have to throw it over their heads. He said all the things fans wanted to hear...now let’s see if he gets it done.

ETA: says the receivers are the strength of this team right now.

I missed the question to which he answered with an emphatic “bullshite,” but that was fun.

I think Ensminger has O's trust more so than Canada ever did. O may meddle less with Ensminger running the offense. Orgeron may just have the mindset that Ensminger is doing with he wants done and will let him be. I think Ensminger was a wise choice for O. Orgeron still sucks as a head coach but Ensminger can be a good enough coordinator especially with Aranda on the other side of the ball.

I’ve never doubted SE as far as effort goes. He will do whatever he can to help LSU win. My concern is where his ceiling lies amongst other successful OC’s in CFB. If he does his absolute best job he can, is that a 70th ranked offense? Maybe 50th? Or lower? I don’t know.

The bigger issue is that O promised the best coordinators in CFB, staked his reputation on it to get the LSU job. He inherited Aranda, as Miles drew Dave to LSU. He hired Canada, and couldn’t get along with him. Then promotes the TE coach. What does that say about O’s actual control over a major college football program?

He was answering a question T-Bob asked related to hearing criticism. He basically said "some people said all coaches read the paper. bullshite... I haven't read the paper in 20 years."

Who the heck down voted the OP? Why would anyone not want the new OC to be successful or at least TRY to be successful?

True. Just hope it's not coach-speak. Steve by all accounts is a genuine good guy so I believe he'll give max effort.

Lol...Yeah I'm gonna have to look that up later. Thx btw.

I was encouraged by SE's remarks. Fingers crossed.

I hope he does well. I hope he gets our QB and our offense rolling next year.

3-4 WR sets
Being balanced out of every personnel grouping
RPO driven offense
Strength of O is WRs

He sounds like a blue color type of guy. Looks like he is a hard worker.
