I'm getting behind O

I can't go into a season as a nega-Tiger. There's too much to look forward to, so I've started looking for bright spots in O's short time here so far.

The team is in great shape, according to Moffitt. There's a great vibe and players are keeping each other accountable.

Aranda has stated this his most talented and deepest front seven ever. If this is indeed the case, then I don't foresee anyone just having their way with our defense. It's also going to help our lack of depth at corner. More pressure on the QB = less pressure on DBs.

O will make changes when necessary. As messed up as the whole Canada situation was, at least O made a change quickly. You could argue that Canada shouldn't have been here in the first place, but it's better than holding on the the same offensive coordinator for several seasons, running the same outdated offenses year after year and expecting different results (Miles).

This has been pounded into our brains by the O apologists, but he is indeed an incredible recruiter. I've been visiting 247 and the recruiting board quite frequently, and the future classes look stellar. He's not just loading up with a bunch of 5 and 4 star wide receivers, running backs and defensive backs like Miles used to, which inflated some of his class rankings. He's recruiting a balanced team and loading up with beef on both sides of the ball. This has obviously been a weakness of ours when playing teams like Bama. O has been looking to remedy that, and he's doing quite well. I expect the 2019 class to be loaded with high quality beef on the offensive side of the ball.

Ensminger. It's been fun making fun of him, but the man is serious about fielding a high quality offense at LSU. A major advantage that LSU will have this year is no team knows what we're coming out with. Especially Miami. They really have no ideal way to prepare for what Ensminger is going to bring. That's unless he comes out with some crap from the 1980s, but I seriously doubt that's going to be the case, based on my sources and everything that's being apparently installed.

All in all, I am starting to feel like this can be an extremely solid year for our Tigers, and with a little luck, perhaps we can win 10-12 games. The talent is certainly there.

It's O's 2nd full season coming up at LSU. I'm going to be very critical, but I'm starting to feel positive about what's coming.
