re: Steve Ensminger new LSU TE coach

As a college qb, Ensminger was an above average player and had not he and Woodley split time, he probably would have left LSU as one of the all-time greats.

Say WHHAAAATTT?????

Dude was known as "shite-slinger" by fan corps, and it wasn't because his throwing was "the shite". Not a favorable reaction to his time in the saddle.

Also, would scream at his o-line when he'd get sacked because he held onto the ball way too long. Not many of them liked ole slinger.

GEEEZ. Take off the "Good Old Days" rosey glasses. He wasn't that good.

he coached at Central and West Monroe b/c he wanted to coach his son. Its so funny how people who know nothing about football will sit here and say if its a good hire or not. How the frick do you know? You make 60k a year as a sales rep. He makes 250k a year as a TE coach. He must be doing something right. Coaches change jobs all the time. Know your facts before you post shite.

so you are basically saying that the TE coach making more money (you are way off on your salary figure by the way) is instantly better and a more viable human being than the sales rep making $60K a year based solely on the fact that he was hired ?? good thing the st. louis rams weren't consulting with you when they signed that old bag boy named warner .. so, would you say the fantastic lynn amedee era in 1994 that snatched defeat from the jaws of victory at auburn was far better than say, the average joe selling pharmaceuticals for galaxo wellcome or something ?? no earthly way a coaching hire mistake is made ? no way possible ??

you really think if USC picks up the phone and offers steve $500K a year to be offensive coordinator he says "wow, thanks, nevermind though, i really wanna stay here at central high school to coach my son" .. you really think that is the case ?? you don't think daddy wasn't hoping to parlay his kid's recruiting into a coaching gig via a package deal possibly ?

come on .. he was coaching high school football for a reason and it wasn't because he got teary eyed on father's day ..

This guy was QB coach at Auburn since 2003. Other than 2004, Jason Campbell's senior year, what in the world makes any of you think this guy would be a good QB coach? And after a fast start his career has been dubious at best since 1998 as an offensive coordinator.

List the QB's Aubbie has had during his tenure. . .

TIGAHRAG You def got personal rub against Ensminger.Is he the real dad of your first child.........................

i think its more to do with not hiring a QB coach than hiring a TE coach

Those that believe that somehow Gonzales, who has no OC experience whatsoever, is going to be some miraculous panacea for the inept Gary Crowton would be laughable, if not so sad.




Just because he didnt have OC in his title doesnt mean he doesnt have OC experience

You don't for work for Urban Meyer that many years and not learn something about offense.

BTW, what happened to Tim Salem from Central Florida as TE coach? Good resume' and a former QB/OC.

Ensminger worries me that he's never lasted long at anywhere he's been and having to sink back down to the high school coaching level isn't that impressive, but he's a former LSU QB, has OC experience, should be able to "help out" with QB teaching (If needed or asked to do so) and by any stretch of the imagination should be a gross improvement over Yanowsky.

Plus, ya gotta love those 1982 graduates of Louisiana State University..........
