According to LSU website, Dandydon, LSU will hire Steve Ensminger as their new OC in the next couple of days. I would rather them hire Ensminger than a really good OC. Ensminger is adequate, but not great.
LSU. OC

Not even. Les wouldn't trust him with anything more than tight ends. I mean 6 years as a tight end coach. Hell, even Ensminger knew what his ceiling was or he would have left.
Damn Ogre thinks he can outsmart the room and find a diamond in the rough. Why does this man keep getting these jobs?

He didnt even want to be OC because he didnt want the pressure. O apparently talked him in to accepting
DandyDon, the purple 'kool-aid' pumper of all things LSU .. conducted a poll on Ensminger. Looks like 63% of 10,000 voters thought he was a BAD hire! ONLY 30% thought it could be a positive.
First, thanks to all of you who voted in our poll yesterday asking whether Steve Ensminger is the right choice for LSU’s OC position. With more than 10,000 votes cast, 40% said: “Absolutely not.” Next, with 23% of the vote, was “No, but LSU could do worse.” About 7% chose “I don’t know” and 21% said LSU’s offense would be in good hands, though Ensminger was not their first choice. Roughly 9% gave Ensminger a full endorsement by voting “Yes, Ensminger brings tons of experience, did well last year in a difficult situation, and would only get better with his own offense.” Bottom line interpretation: The numbers amount to roughly two out of every three voters (63%) feeling that this would be a bad decision, 7% undecided, and 30% viewing the potential decision as one that could be positive.
It's coming apart down here in the bayou. I'm sitting back enjoying the cluster that is lsu football. Couple it with the Saints success and we have good times for Bulldogs here in New Orleans. I think lsu will fire Slingblade next year, buyout be damned. The attendance will dry up to the point where Alleva and O will be forced out. It's a perfect storm of trouble for lsu and the Ogre. He promised to hire "the best coordinators", ditched Canada after one year, promoted a reluctant Emsminger, brutal schedule next year, new QB, WR's, RB's, and maybe 4 new OL members.
It's amazing how they continue to botch everything. They'll be ready to fire Ogre this year -- and they will be on the hook for another $7.5mil to their DC that will be in high demand.
Someone in the national media was saying and I agree.... think the writing is on the wall for an Aranda promotion...

A good friend of mine is a diehard LSU fan. When they hired O, I told him it was going to be trouble. He now describes the situation in Baton Rouge as "death by a thousand cuts".
If I was O i would have gone after Dan Enos. He did a solid job for Arkansas. He seemed to develop qbs well too. I’m glad they went full retard though.
