Though Mr. Dowie I'm sure has the best intentions, it's probably best to just let LSU SOM faculty, staff, and current 'student leaders' do their thing.

What SOM faculty have experience with marching band? In my experience, I've found that SOM Concert/Symphonic/Wind/Performance musician types are totally clueless in marching band matters.

Ya want the womens softball coach to go be the offensive coordinator of the football team?

SOM faculty are exactly the reason LM left LSU by degrading Tiger Band down a few notches in putting the "Associate Director of Bands" title on the head TB Director, instead of the "Director of Bands" title. That's probably the reason they're having trouble getting somebody to take the job. Who wants to be the director of Tiger Band if they're only going to be the "Associate" Director of Bands?

Are any of the new grad assistants from LSU or are they coming in blind from another school?

RK should very well know if he's going to need help or not, on or off the field, and should be the one to choose whomever that help is. If he wants RD, or anybody else for that matter to help out, that should be HIS call.......
