I mean there’s very recent precedent with Steve Kragthorpe. He was kept on staff in an administrative role after his diagnosis. That should have been done two months ago for Lindsey.


Kragthorpe wasn't replaced immediately. It was a very similar situation to Lindsey, where Studrawa was promoted from O-Line Coach to OC because Krags stepped down in August.

It was bad timing with when Lindsey came down with the illness and I'm not sure where people think Kelly could have gotten a full-time replacement on such short notice at the start of the season.

Coaching failure. Even if we get PJ on an interim basis till we see a different turm. Should have had a DL coach during Spring camp and the beginning of the season. Big mistake, this is on CBK.

I can tell you that if I was unable to do my job, my company would replace me in a heartbeat.



No they wouldn’t if you bothered to fill out the FMLA paperwork.

How is that even possible at a place like LSU? Why didn’t he replace the coach with health problems? I’m starting to think we need a new head coach. Of course, we can’t fire him due to his huge contract. Something is not right.


Same way it’s loss to allow our DL to line up 3 yards from the line game after game without correcting

What's the protocol in these situations? We hire a guy who for reasons beyond his control can't perform his job duties. Does LSU have long term disability like most organizations? Seems like once it was determined he couldn't do his job, we should have looked for a permanent replacement. Seems to also be a killer in recruiting


March 23 - Jamar Cain leaves LSU for NFL
May 1 - Jimmy Lindsey Hired
August 2 - Jimmy Lindsey steps away for health issues.

You can't just go grab a top-tier D-line coach in August. John Jancek isn't some idiot who doesn't know football. He played college ball as a D-lineman. He's spent a lot of his coaching career as a DC and has coached multiple positions including D-line. He was the best fit at the time. Yes, BK could have called Pete earlier to help out. But it isn't like they just gave the position to some inexperienced GA. BK has an army of analysts around the team. It wasn't unreasonable to think he could handle the position.

The offense is doing brilliantly. I look at the glass half full. D line is an issue and is being addressed. Rome wasn’t built in a day.

“My bad.” If it’s on him give up some salary. Talk is cheap. His nonsensical explanations are getting old really fast.

CBK has never been a defensive coach

I’m always amazed at how easily some of y’all say stuff without having any idea whether it’s true.

Jamar Cain is a POS for bailing like that, especially to follow the pill popper.

Not having a defensive line coach is obviously affecting the entire program in a bigger way than anyone imagined.
