Does it really hurt? Maybe very temporarily

This is an unfortunate loss, but he tried to leverage his value (again) and Kelly said good luck, i believe. Raymond has held LSU hostage for years in the off-season and with culture change comes other changes. The FW hire had a lot to do with this also. LSU will be fine.

How do u know this? You may wanna think BK is some new sheriff in town. He may have begged Raymond to stay. Who knows?

jawnybnsc•28 months

Isn't Napier giving him the AHC title? That may have meant more to him than anything else.

Corey did not create DBU people, he inherited it.

rob62•28 months

Some of the posters here a very young and like to talk but the truth is that LSU’s Secondary was terrible in 2020 & 2021. If they think LSU was DBU in the last 2 seasons then explain how LSU was giving up record yardage to mediocre teams. Explain how we had so much prima dona activity and poor play by the DBs who were coached by Corey Raymond. Brian Kelly is doing what he needs to do to change LSU’s losing attitude and if that means Corey Raymond goes then so be it.

TigerB8•28 months

Wow, this is total stupidity. You cannot let a proven recruiting and x/o talent like this coach leave. Not good at all.

Unbelievable! Every year or two Corey put a cornerback or safety n the NFL and your telling me he wasn’t worth keeping on the new staff …..BS !!!

TigahJay•28 months

You think he's the only one who can do that at LSU? lol

BayouTiga•28 months

You don't understand what it takes to run an organization with dedicated and loyal people to your process.

CanebreakCajun•28 months

So does Ohio State. So does UGA. so does Alabama. So does Florida. What’s your point. Has it occurred to you that he wants to leave, that he wants new scenery?

DaBull•28 months

We are becoming Notre Dame. ??

BayouTiga•28 months

Your point?

rob62•28 months

Kelly inherited a shite show and is fixing it. Go pull for Corey Raymond and Billy Bob.

Sounds like you like stinky balls

Changing the Culture means sometimes changing the guard. Hope Woody’s boy rights the ship soon!

BayouTiga•28 months

You get it!

rob62•28 months

Agree 100%.

TigahJay•28 months

I’ll let you guys in on a little secret: our DBs were better before he got here. Too many divas last couple years in the CB room. Frank will handle recruiting, Raymond can go enjoy Gainesville and Billy Bob Napier. LSU will whoop his arse once a year.

lsusa•28 months

Billy Bob is the AD. Napier is the Good Ole boy.

rob62•28 months

Some of these posters on Tigerdroppings are ULL (Not UL) fans. Fuk ULL and Napiers little league arse. In the past season Billy Boy got destroyed by a terrible Texas team. Then he beat friggin’ Nichols by 3 points. He beat South Alabama by 2 points. He beat a pitiful Arkansas State team by 1 point. Yet to the ULL lovers out there Napier was Super-Duper. Thank God we hired a proven head coach and not some flavor of the month like Napier.

Play_Neck•28 months

Jeez, these comments. No dispute that Corey is a good coach and pretty good recruiter. But if he's at UF, we move on. This program moving in a really good direction with or without him.

BayouTiga•28 months

Agreed.....Most of these posters have never worked in a major corporation when a new CEO takes over. This is very common ground.

Hurricane Mike•28 months

This likely had something to do with Frank Wilson coming back and being RC. But the loss of a title can be made up with more straight up money which LSU hasn't been reluctant to spend, so something else went on too.

HTF4U•28 months

dont care if wilson is here or not..losing Corey is frickED UP

toothfxr92•28 months

This means LSU and Kelly know more than we do

AugustaTiger•28 months

Are you frickin kidding me? I've about had it with this. Feels like the sinking ship just found new depths of the ocean.

CanebreakCajun•28 months

Stfu you pussy.

AugustaTiger•28 months

Guess you don’t like news or new hires or new commitments. Only like to watch people walk out- probably what you did to your kids.

BayouTiga•28 months

You are clueless......

rob62•28 months

Amen

Gumbo1•28 months

NOOOOOO! PLEASE DON'T LET COACH RAYMOND GO!

rob62•28 months

Fuk him. He is Tiger Bait.

Herodijontiger•28 months

LSU needs to do whatever it takes to keep him!!!

CanebreakCajun•28 months

No, they don’t.

Lamb•28 months

He’s leaving because we have Wilson back. Am I the only one who finds it funny that the flagship university in Florida is building its recruiting strategy around Louisiana talent?

CanebreakCajun•28 months

Lol, this true. Florida is loaded with talent. Maybe they just can’t keep them in state anymore.

rob62•28 months

Florida kids know Florida is a damn joke and fraud.
