I mean that’s great, but he’s been here 8 years. He couldn’t help the QB’s or the offense as a whole then? The TE’s didn’t produce shite in the last 8 years.


A most valid point. Thanks for taking all hope out of it for me. .

“He knows pass protections,” Tuberville noted. “Some of these spread teams only know run protections. He can run that stuff, but I’m sure he wants to take that to another level, which you have to in the SEC. You better be physical. A lot of guys running spread are one-dimensional.”

And then there’s training the quarterbacks themselves. “You can’t find QB coaches that coach technique,” Tuberville said. “With a lot of spread offenses, there’s no footwork, not a lot of timing. It’s amazing how these schools get by. There will be technique at LSU, I promise you, and it’ll make the quarterback better. He’s great at fundamentals.”


I hate to rain on anyone’s parade here, but Tuberville was on The Opening Drive in B’Ham this morning and said almost word for word the same things about JB Grimes at Auburn. Even about the quarterbacks getting better and everything.

Tuberville has always been more of a politician than an expert football analyst.

Could be that we used 300 lb TEs as an extra tackle 99% of the time.

Do you have any idea what he tried to do or was allowed to do behind the scenes? Did it even begin to occur to you that the offensive coordinators just accidentally might have dictated what he could do to help the offense?


Les stated multiple times he was important for recruiting and film break down.

And this, we don't throw to the tes, was always kind of bullshite. I think it was 14 and 15 a te caught a pass every game. We just didn't throw the ball a bunch period.

And don't forgot Harris got a couple of those guys killed with his fricking high passes.

I heard him on Moscona after the SE PC and I swear TT was overselling the shite out of Ensminger

I don’t get it, so Ensminger is his friend, but what is the point?

Damn, look at all the downvotes you got just for posting an article of Tommy Tuberville praising O for promoting Ensminger. Indeed, because Ensminger took the job all of a sudden he is evil incarnate. The stupidity on the rant is immense.

Anyway, Tuberville worked with Ensminger forever and highly respects the dude. The only reason Ensminger wasn't an OC all these years had to do with the fact that he didn't want the headache that goes along with the job. However, because he trusts O immensely, he's excited about the job today and we will all be the better for it.

Man, these LSU/O haters are by far the dumbest people on the Rant.

And tommy tubberville would love to have a coaching job.


Unlike Miles who was fired from his last head coaching gig for gross incompetence and will never ever coach again, although he wants another head coaching job immensely, Tuberville resigned from his final head coaching job and retired. Now he is doing something Miles is incapable of doing, which is being a play by play analyst for ESPN.

I'm just trying to figure out whose fault it will be when it's apparent that Ensminger's not some secret weapon. I anticipate the blame will be dropped on some combination of Canada, Miles, the refs and the SEC headquarters.


You sound just like last year before the season and during the season when you were predicting that O would win 4 games tops, but he won 9 games instead. Thus, because he won 9 games instead of the 4 you projected, then stop acting like he is a 4 & 9 coach you moron.

Ok. Why hasn't Saban pursued Steve E for the OC position then?


Because Saban isn't nearly as stupid as you are moron and knows that nothing will pry Ensminger away from LSU

Because nothing will pry Ensminger away from LSU you moron. Not to mention that prior to this season, Ensminger didn't want to be an offensive coordinator. However, because he trusts O immensely he is finally ready for the challenge.

Looks like Tuberville who forgot far more about football than you will ever come close to knowing in your entire low-information miserable life has a lot of confidence in Ensminger.

I do too, as I trust Aranda and Aranda says that Ensminger is a better play caller than Canada is.

Seems to me that with the lack of any actual search for current OCs, that O basically forced Ensminger's hand. And O has admitted to not having a search. Tee Martin reached out, O declined to even speak with him. That pretty much leads me to believe that was no search.


So what you just posted contradicts itself.
quote:

You just posted that.

Yet after 20 something years, magically he agrees to become one full time.

Honestly, you have to be one of the worst posters on here and that's saying something.

You bring nothing of substance and any hint of disagreement, you get into a tizzy and start calling people "morons" and such all the while dismissing how your actual argument is going, which you usually are on the losing end of, based on actual facts yet you dismiss those facts and continue with your nonsense and don't care how it actually makes you look and then if all that wasn't ridiculous enough, you expect people to actually take what you say seriously.


One of the top trolls, you are dedicated. What a sight to behold.

He was referring to Ensminger. Tuberville was never our TE coach.

There never was a search. It's only you LSU/O haters that thought there was going to be a search for an OC.

Nonetheless, Aranda was the one that lobbied O to make Ensminger the new offensive coordinator, as O and Ensminger were collaborating all season long on offense. As Ensminger was O's go-to guy on offensive matters, as O never trusted Canada.

For instance, Canada wanted Myles to start, but O and Ensminger wanted Etling to start. O didn't want to place his career in the hands of a true freshman QB and Ensminger advised O not to be that stupid.

Not to mention, that all three of them O, Aranda, and Ensminger are the best of friends. As O never makes any decisions regarding the football program without consulting the both of them first because they are both very experienced and O trusts their opinions immensely.

Of course, O also consults with Pete Carroll and Jimmy Johnson on occasion as well.

Nonetheless, all O is doing is making the other person on his staff besides Aranda that O trusts the most the offensive coordinator.

Meanwhile, Ensminger always wanted to be the offensive coordinator, but under the correct circumstances. Hence, we finally have the correct circumstances and Ensminger is now ecstatic that he is the new offensive coordinator.

Not to mention that many people also believe that Ensminger called the plays in the A&M game this season, which was the best offensive outing by far of the season.

Maybe that is your stupid opinion, but that just substantiates how stupid you are and how incredibly dumb most of the LSU/O haters are.

Your problem moonbat is you wouldn't recognize a fact even if it stared you in the face, winked at you, and then spit in your eye.

Like I said, you LSU/O haters are the most incredibly stupid people on the Rant. Indeed, your collective stupidity blows my mind every day.

Nonetheless, though, you morons collective misery and stupidity triggered by O being the head coach of LSU, at the same time, also brings me great joy and pleasure. Hence, I hope O is the head coach at LSU for many years to come.

At least you admitted it. Yes, there was no search and you're completely ok with that?

When there's nothing left to defend, resort to this. Like I said, and you still expect people to take you seriously.


I'm done wasting my time on your bs.
