Looks like Kingsbury, Freeze, and Fredora are available.

Is it time for a change? Any other possible targets?

Will the SEC allow him back into the conference?

The only OC candidate at this time is Ensminger. He just set the record for points scored in a game. That is the narrative that will be pushed by admin and he aint going anywhere unless he steps down

I think Freeze is eligible to coach again now, don't know about the SEC.

Yes, it's way past time for a change, but nothing will happen.

According to O, we've got the best OC in the country on staff right now.

I get this is in jest, but in all seriousness that's one game that happened to go to 7 OTs.. Both teams had no defense left whatsoever.

I really doubt we go after anyone. It’s Ensminger for a while.

Unless Ensminger does the honorable thing and steps down voluntarily for the good of the program, he will be back as OC next year. There's no way that Orgeron will demote or fire him, because he hand-picked him for the job. Also, I get the impression that Orgeron wouldn't replace SE with anyone he thinks might be viewed as a better coach than himself.

I'd rather have my high school coach as Ensminger. Is it possible that he will say he has had enough at the end of the season?

Kingsbury or Freeze would be awesome!

O didn't like Canada's offense....he's not going to like Kingsbury's either.

I'm down for Freeze

But it'll be E

Coach O is not firing Ensminger. He is going to be our OC as long as O is head coach.

I'm afraid no change will be made. The excuse for Offense will be the OL which was banged up and mix/matched and shuffled all year.

SO offense can be successful if the OL performs and gets the running game going. But if the run game is not going, then there isn't enough creativity in the passing game to help out the offense.

I'd be fine with Kingsbury as long as he comes in committed to a run attack as well. You can't run an air raid system in the SEC. You have to have some balance with run.

I wonder if Aranda could sway Kliff to LSU since he.was at TT when Kliff was playing?

You realize they run completely different offenses?

A true Ranterd would call for a new OC after scoring 72.

The OC will be Steve Emzinger. Deal with it.

You think Captain Orgeron can tell the difference? He thinks his own/Ensmingers system is different from Les Miles.

You're trolling right? I'm assuming you are but let's play the hypothetical.

If serious, what did the offense look like in regulation? 7 OT is like playing a whole nother game, against a gassed defense that had just played a whole nother game.

You can't be this stupid, can you?

Freeze was always allowed to be an assistant coach, just couldn't be a Head coach I think.

He's the obvious choice here.
Has SEC experience, has beaten Bama, has worked with coach O, and will probably end up on Bama shadow staff or Auburn if we don't hire him first.

I don't trust kingsbury, because the big12 is so bad on defense, but he'd still be a huge upgrade.
