And LSU called his bluff. He walked.

I’m not saying I want him gone. Im going to get down voted to shite. I’m not saying he’s not worth the money. But every year like clock work. There was a rumor of someone poaching him. We sweat. Give him a bump.

Rinse and repeat next season.

It stings he’s going to be with those losers in Jorts but at a certain point if you want to be here stop shaking us down every season.

This is a total reboot of LSU football. Something’s are going to be more painful than others. Roots have to come up with the stump.

Loser move heading to Florida. He honestly wasn’t even good last couple years for us. We will be more than fine

Lmfao I shouldn’t be surprised that this board is even pretending it’s okay with losing Corey Raymond.


There is no limit to the homeristic delusion.

It's ok to be disappointed with things. We are old enough and mature enough to not have to sugar coat everything

Exactly. I said this in another thread but I'll repost here:

this board is too much. We go from Woody is a shite AD for missing on Riley to Woody is god again for hiring Kelly. Then we go from Kelly is great to Kelly sucks because no assistant coaches have been named to Kelly is a god for hiring Wilson, and now we are back to everyone turning on Kelly.

I am not a fan of losing Raymond but we haven't even seen how the final staff will look when it's all said and done. Everyone needs to take a deep breath around here.

It has to be that. Raymond got an offer, LSU declined to match and he took the extra money to still coach DBs.

No reason to be downvoted, Raymond made his choice and LSU will just win titles without him. There are other great DB coaches and recruiters out there.

Is it really a shake-down when the money is being earned? Other than Bo's dumpster fire let me know the last time DB's were an issue to be concerned about.

How has LSU looked against big plays the last two seasons?

Corey Raymond is an excellent coach and recruiter. Nobody wants him to leave.

He’s also not irreplaceable. If he were, he’d have been a DC half a decade ago.

:sawft:

collectively, this board melts over everything. Sometimes, it's funny, sometimes, it's depressing.

a frick that man. I am more than okay with it. First lesson in life, in business, everyone is replaceable.

it's NOT unusual for an employee, in this case an alumni feels a little entitled, untouchable...we're paying him nearly 600k to coach DB's...

600k at a publicly funded university. freaking DB's...


Raymond has been here for 10 seasons...

it's time for change

players make plays...

This. It sucks to lose Raymond because it makes the transition harder this year and he’s making a lateral move to a program we’ve been better than for a decade, but let’s not pretend he’s beyond reproach. The secondary had serious performance issues last year. They had serious attitude issues with guys flat-out quitting this year.

Let’s see how it all plays out. Maybe it’s time, because the old culture needs to GO. Quickly. Permanently. If losing CR is part of the upheaval, so be it. Frank Wilson is more than a consolation prize.

All this said, Kelly needs to wrap the DC and remaining defensive hires before the weekend to hold this class.

I’ve seen nothing suggesting he was trying to get a raise, stop blowing smoke.

Random said last week Raymond was gone

Yep. Getting rid of the cancers. People don’t always like it but it’s better for the program to purge these people.

He’s not irreplaceable

He left for more money. It’s not like it was a real promotion on the staff. Teams slap that AHC title on anyone.
