What offense? No one has a clue what their offense would even be.



The element of surprise.

Hard to defend what you can't prepare for.

Do you think its a complete coincidence that Ensminger hasn't been hired as an OC in 20 years?



20 years of scheming. This is going to be interesting!

Geaux Tigers in my CEO voice.

Lmao. Thanks for proving ur a football ignorant clown like so many others here. Yeah ensminger was really wanted all over as a OC huh? Idiot. How’d he do against Bama
And uf? He had better personnel than Canada and still couldn’t do shite against those two. Then he ran it up on crap defenses. Lol

I’m taking the money I save on my 4 season tickets next season and will go use the Will Cover method to buy a car.

I was all in support for O when hired. But now he has fed us lies. He said he would go after the best coordinators in football. Aranda yes, this does not support what he said to us when hired. Think he just put himself on the hot seat over pride. Instead of doing what you said, you rather not let your coordinator do his job so you can take over play calls. Think this will be a regret for him in the long run.

If true, I feel sorry for our players bacause they deserve better. Coach O isn't doing what's necessary to build this program. We are quickly becoming the new Arkansas of the SEC.

that's true, but it's just terrible from a PR standpoint. The fans hearts were set on a big name big splash hire. I have to agree it was a bad hire, not that Ensminger isn't a good OC, he is and he is a big step up from Cameron and Canada as far as OC ability goes, but that the negativety from the fan base will outweigh any positives that come from this hire.

I'm very disappointed in this move. It was dumb on the part of Orgeron not to care about the image the this gives to the fan base. That Ensminger proved to be a very talented OC in the interim period is not relavant. Orgeron way underestimates the importance of good PR.

I must admit I just did not see this coming. It's not re4ally about ability. While that is important. Why give the angry portion of the fan base ammo.

The only thing I can think is they are never going to like him or accept him, no matter what, so why cater to them? I just don;'t see it being wise to just say " I don't give a frick what the idiot portion of the fan base thinks I just want LSU to be successful on the field" to be a very wise move. Because the idiot portion is very large and motivated to take him down.

they probably are already aware that Ensminger is a very capable OC

this is the part that worries me. That the portion of the fan base determined to take him down will now come out with endless negativity no mater what he does from here on out. With this hiring he could win a NC next season and the idiot portion of the fan base will still post endless negativety and work to take down the program.

Can’t blame Steve, he’s sees the writing is on the wall so he might as well earn as much as he can before the next coach comes in and cleans house.
