He definitely should have. But Boxcar Willie is right that he backed himself into a corner when he was talking about hiring the best coordinator (only Orgeron was talking specifically about Kiffin). Once Kiffin fell through, there's no doubt in my mind he wanted to hire Ensminger, but he either didn't have the stones to pull the trigger or Alleva persuaded him to hire Canada. Either way, it was a failure on Orgeron's part


Right, we know all of this.

It was still no excuse to not hire the next best guy for the job if he felt that guy was Ensminger. That's actually him being negligent in his duty as HC to hire Canada if he knew he wasn't the guy he wanted.

Boxcar still never explained what information we have indicates that Ensminger is one of the better OCs in the country.

Of course. As I said previously, sometimes a little comic relief is nice and it's certainly easy to find that here. Someone is always going to try to make something out of nothing and it's funny to sit back and watch them try and embarrass themselves.

Right. He fricked up. That was 21 months ago. He corrected his mistake in January.

Why are you stuck on this? It has no bearing on the 2018 football team and the great job the staff is doing right now.

I've never seen a group of people as focused on the rear view mirror as some of you guys.

Probably so. It's really been comical how ree and his merry band of nitwits have attacked you for posting something positive like your OP, which is what I would have thought they would have wanted, and then attacked you for commenting on last years kicking woes, which at any other football program in America, ultimately falls at the feet of the head coach.

But not here at Louisiana State University. The head coach is untouchable.

Everything in this thread that is negatives is in direct response to someone else and started by someone saying we had the talent to win 10 games last year. It's not as if people just came in talking bad about the coaching staff. It's really just a discussion that 2 people decided to turn into hating the head coach.

OK. I went back and re read the OP. Went straight over my head at the time. You were being sarcastic.


Good Lord. Now I know why you have such a hard time communicating with other posters. There doesn't seem to be anything sarcastic about Lunatiks post.

I have to admit, I checked out of this thread shortly after 1988's asinine post on page one. So I'm going to go ahead and blame him for derailing your thread.

I don't think it's any one person's fault. Some people are able to seperate discussing the past from discussing the present while others want to lump it all together. Different strokes.

Of course.

When I meet someone and one of the first things they tell me is that they don't lie, I believe everything they say after that. If they go out of their way to tell you they are honest then you have to believe them right?

Same as when someone tells me they don't steal stuff. Even when I have to leave for an hour or two, I invite into my home and leave them there alone. If someone has to tell you they don't steal there is no way they would ever steal from you, right?

So I figure when someone starts a thread claiming their allegiance to the head coach then they really have an allegiance. Even if in the same thread they attack him. It doesn't matter. they said they love him now and that is all that matters.

Why would they start a thread announcing they aren't a thief or I mean they are a huge fan if it is not true.

Other people bring it up then say why are you focused on the past.

I'm pretty sure that every single "negatiger" in this thread has said how impressed they are with the job the coaching staff has done thus far. Why do we have to keep repeating it every 5 minutes?

I gonna assume that you meant to say "made", not "madd." If that's the case, you should try checking out a little bit of ree's post history before Miles was fired and o was named the head coach.

That guy's been an arse no matter what board he's been posting on. And he's probably been an arse for the entire 14 years he's been on here.

The fools are the ones who don't call his hypocritical arse out. He acts like a spoiled baby who's gotten his way his whole life. He needs and deserves to be called out.

Claim allegiance to the head coach? What? I never said I was gonna blow him. I said he's done a great job this season when I didn't think he would.

The hits keep on coming. You're better than watching stand up comedy. I said the man made a mistake with the kicking situation. I hate to break it to you, but people make mistakes. There's nothing wrong with saying it and no need to make excuses for it. Funny that you didn't mention how I said he did a great job rectifying the situation.
