Simple question regarding Coach E . . .
Posted on 11/28/18 at 12:26 pm
Posted on 11/28/18 at 12:26 pm
Would ANY of the top college head coaches - Saban , Meyer, Smart, Herman, Fisher, Dabo - hire an offensive coordinator who had not directed an offense as a coordinator in over 20 years?
If the successful coaches and teams are what we are trying to emulate, consistently producing good quarterback and offensive performance, then why should we expect this total departure from the norm for these coaches/programs to produce extraordinary success for our offense?
It was a flawed hire, generated by a fragile ego or a lack of comprehending the realities of what is needed at the position of OC. Hopefully it gets changed post season.

Need Briles or Kingsbury, it’s up to O to make the move.

E Isn't going anywhere. O wanted him from the get go, he's not going to fire him after 1 season.

Why are we still arguing the hire? You have a years worth games to argue about now. Why make generalized and emotional arguments at this point?

I mean technically he did it in 2016, as the OC for Orgeron, so it’s not like there was no experience there.
Not that it made it a good hire but they had some success together.

He was demoted at Auburn in 06 and hasn’t been one since so what do you think?

E can step down and still have a spot on staff. It has really always been up to him if he wanted to be OC

It’s called an opinion board, Hondo. It’s what we do on TD.

O also wants to keep his job.

Briles would be a massive get.
I wish so bad they would.
He runs the perfect offense for us and he’d probably be around for at least 3 years.
I also can’t see him getting into any trouble whatsoever. If anything a guy like him is actually a safe hire, as weird as that sounds.. and I don’t care about public perception. That fades away. He’s already been at two different universities with no issues whatsoever.
His offense produces TDs. I believe he’s like top 3-5 in overall TDs.

If LSU somehow loses the bowl game I would think no doubt O pulls the trigger
O knows he has a job he wants to keep, keeping SE at OC would speed up the process

Ensminger should just tell O that he wants to coach Tight Ends and drop the OC role. Then go get Briles, or Kingsbury...either one would be a huge improvement over what we have now.

We fired a head coach because the offense was bad.
We then hired a head coach no other school would interview and who had zero ability on the offensive side of the ball.
After running off a highly regarded offenive coordinator —- he was a finalist for the Broyles award —- we hired an OC no one had looked at for over a decade.
This is where we are folks.

Was a head coach and OC before becoming LSUs OC. He's also not tOSUs OC. He is the Oline coach.

Kingsbury
Why do people keep mentioning him? He's got multiple NFL teams knocking on his door. Why would he come to LSU?

Does anybody really thing we are going to do something as smart as hiring a great OC?
