not sure how good a recruiter he is. very important to be able to recruit good qb's. richt, jimbo, and long, have been the best at it for a while.


No he's not...thats what led to eventual firing...plus a lot of the players they did get never saw the field...

How is Frank Wilson one of the most successful Miles hires? Try Pelini and Chavis. Wilson not close, only his recruiting. Average field coach. Hel Joe Rob has done a better job of coaching than Wilson.


Are you serious? For one, Wilson has done a great job recruiting. And not sure if you noticed that Ridley had 1,000 yards rushing on the season, and this was the first season in a long time LSU didn't use a crazy RB by committee scheme. Wilson is tons more valuable then Crowton.

Franklin definitely was not blameless in the ordeal. He was given the reigns from the onset, and only after a bad showing against ULM did the assistant coaches revolt against his schemes.

His biggest fault was the philosophy with our offensive line. You may recall he wanted our offensive line an average of 50 lbs lighter. He preferred shifty and nimble offensive linemen to big and strong blockers. That crap may fly in the Sun Belt and WAC, but it will never work in the SEC. And that philosophy destroyed us all year long as Kodi was like a deer in the headlights.
