We better have one hell of a coaching staff and class going forward!

Right? I mean I get the turnover but replace with better is my only solution.

Has anyone on our staff been a downgrade thus far?

We are cleaning house. Whether you care to admit it or not, there was a culture issue in the locker room. Why would BK want someone telling him “this is how we used to do it….” This is a good chance to start fresh. I’m all for it.

Well, for the first time since Saban, we have a coach that appears to know what he’s doing.

Great thing is you don't have to solve a damn thing. Just sit back and enjoy the ride.

Does anyone know? Just because they are known or popular doesn’t mean they will do well. Just a statement.

If we traded Cooks for Raymond then that is a huge downgrade. I don't think that will end up being the case and we'll likely hire another secondary guy but we don't know that yet.

if you can articulate in detail a quality coach I will listen

but you sound emotional and uneducated about these changes

sign up on 247 and read what Shea posted in terms of some background on Raymond leaving

some of you all in here are ticking me off...

I am all for a much needed culture change and cleaning house. No negativity or questioning the process. Let’s just make sure we replace with better or equal talent.

Cooks is an elite recruiter in Texas.

Raymond is a good recruiter in Florida.

Which place is more important for LSU?

As for this business of on-the-field coaching, go look at LSU's pass defense stat over the last two years and then come back and tell me that's irreplaceable.

Raymond is a great recruiter but the db play has been bad by players that aren’t coming in almost ready ,already .

Kelly ain’t coaching scared. He has a plan and is implementing it. If you aren’t on board, you are out of the way or run over.

Kelly wanted the smoke and is not running from it just because some people might scream.

I love it.

The culture must have been a cancer and I’m thinking Raymond was part of it, BK is doing what HE thinks is needed not what the assistant that held lsu hostage yearly for raises thinks is needed. What did shea say in 247?

One that is proven to do well in his career and willing to adapt to change.Does that work?

Are you not understanding the post? Just in general a better coaching staff or equal as I stated.

Everyone is emotional I’d say. We are going through a huge and needed change. Just trying to understand and process and give my minuscule opinion. Which isn’t much but what I think would work.

Based on what? I wouldn't consider him close to elite at anything at this point in his career.
