Yea, and I've been told that A1 offense will be just as good!
Also, A1 has a nasty taste in their mouth after losing the NC....I mean, losing the NC, then getting curb stomped by LSU and Aub...they will be extra motivated...we've never seen A1 team this motivated

We all do it in a way to make our teams look good as possible.
But I think 2010 should be where we start from.

You didn’t want to respond to the part about our offense going forward?
Your offense going forward is an enigma that isn't worth speculating over yet. Me saying it'll go back to the miles offense isn't any more accurate or inaccurate than you saying it won't miss a beat.
The only major change in 2019 compare to 2018 is Joe Brady and Jorge Munoz. Same skill guys, same QB, same HC, same OC. Brady comes in as the passing game coordinator and calls plays inside the 12. Munoz works with the grad school QB.
Brady, Munoz, and Burrow are all gone. I'm not sure why you expect a similar offense to the one last year. Ensminger has a pretty long track record of coaching football. If you can't admit that it was Brady pulling the offense out of the stone age then I don't know what to tell you, it's a matter of constants and variables.
Expecting Ensminger to just be some offensive whiz now is like expecting to print out an Emeril recipe off the internet and have the dish taste the same as it does when the man himself prepares it. I don't expect short side options and toss dives to be the staple of the offense, but I expect it to look a lot more like 2018 than 2019, because the 2018 staff is now the one doing it with a new Quarterback.

Let’s compare current coaches then.
Alabama under Saban vs L8U: 11-4
L8U under Ed Oregon vs Alabama: 1-3
I sense a trend!

Three years of being an OC at major programs outside of LSU?

Personally I dont tend to count interim years since the interim guy has really no control over a lot of the variables such as staffing and designing an offense/defense but you do you.

Orgeron was the one that promoted Ensminger to OC

OK? Your point?

From his wikipedia page-
Orgeron stated that he was going to "flip the script". He promoted tight ends coach Steve Ensminger to offensive coordinator and brought back Pete Jenkins to take over as defensive line coach. Orgeron also decided to shorten practices and spend more time in the film room in order to keep players fresh. In addition, he brought the "theme of daily practices" he modeled from coach Pete Carroll during Orgeron's first stint as an assistant at USC. These practice days have descriptive nicknames like Tell the Truth Monday, Competition Tuesday, Turnover Wednesday, No Repeat Thursday, and Focus Friday.

You think thats all that goes into being a head coach?

Your hypothesis is essentially that Joe Brady is a transcendent offensive mind for our time. While possible, that’s far less likely than he’s just a good coach who came in and showed us how to utilize our athletes properly in 2019 after being stuck in the Stone Age.
If we weren’t replacing that position on the staff then yeah, I’d be concerned about a major regression, but that’s not happening and I don’t know that Brady is all that irreplaceable.
Yes, Burrow was a generational player, I don’t think you’ll find any LSU fans expecting us to break records next year, but the thing with LSU has always been that if we figured out how to utilize our athletes, look out. Now that we’ve done that I don’t know why you’d expect us to go back to the old way of doing things, it was always going to take a few years post-Miles to recalibrate who we were recruiting to best fit a modern scheme, now we’re there.
Do you think O and E are just going to say frick it, let’s dig up the old playbook? That or they are so incompetent as to not recognize they need to bring someone else in with a similar background?

Oh sorry, let’s ignore that.
He’s only 1-2 against Alabama!
