Early on when Ed O took ever has interim, he mentioned getting the offensive staff together to figure out what the best way to improve the offense in the short term would be.
I remember him specifically mentioning Kragthorpe. Does anyone know how much influence he has had on the offense? Just curious, as before I thought ever since his illness that he had been moved to an admin role. Again, just curious if anyone knows how he is doing and if he has a new role in our offense. SIAP.

He's definitely has input into the offense. Probably more
Now than with Lester but pretty much the same role. Helps gameplan, studies film.. He's gotta a lot of experience with offense over the years.

There is absolutely no one on the rant who can answer this question.

That's a very good question. He's a very good offensive mind. He was supposed to be our offensive coordinator prior to getting ill. Then they moved him to an administrator role. I'm sure part if not all of his job centers around assisting the head coach in his specialty. Now, we know Les never really listened to him. But O has been the opposite of that thus far. So Kragthorpe likely has his hand in there, at least a little.

Lester


Do people do this because they don't know that Les is actually short for "Leslie" or because they somehow associate "Lester" with buffoonery?

Edit: This is a legitimate question as I am actually curious about this phenomenon.

He breaks down game film of opponents and is up in the booth looking at the defense and ways to attack it.

Is there a reason that LSU is still paying kragthorpe several $100,000 for what seems to be make believe work and film study normally done by graduate assistants?
