People act like recruiting 4 and 5 star talent is different just because they’re recruiting in the SEC. These are still high school kids looking for the best situation to be in. Good recruiters recruit regardless.

your downvote/post ratio may be one of the worst I have ever seen on this board, and I haven't even seen your other posts.

Pretty bad and if this is any indication of his other 3 than I'm certain this is par for the course.

People overthink this shite way too much.

You know what brings kids to LSU? They want to be a part of this

I promise you Steeples can go in any living room and recruit. Go watch that video of his speech pregame for his high school team! He gets it!


I have a feeling you’re right. This guy looks the part. Really think he is going to be the surprise/stud hire.

Give your prediction on how many guys are still on the staff in 3 years. I’m guessing 4 maybe 5 and one of those will be the D line coach that is yet to be hired.


Polan and Steeples could be gone for promotions after killing it here. I could definitely see that.

You are pretty obviously just fishing, but it’s clear that you are intentionally underselling what Polan can do. He has a very strong track record and now doesn’t have to live on National recruiting, which is far more difficult. He can clean up with our in-state base, but also help us supplement with his wider range of contacts and relationships.

You are also ignoring Brad Davis. While he wasn’t the guy who landed all of our O Line class, he closed it out strong and held it together through difficult circumstances. It looks like he will be the lone holdover from the last staff, and I think that says something.

Just watch. Davis is going to be a good one for us. Combine his youth and approach with Kelly’s reputation for building top O Lines and he’s going to change things here in terms of both depth and talent.

The hell you mean other than Frank Wilson? That guy has recruited Louisiana better than anyone in the modern era of CFB.

Denbrock and Polians all time recruit list puts everyone on last year's staff to shame except for Raymond

Davis seems like a good recruiter
If Hankton is our WR coach - he's above avg at worst
Steeples is the Frank Wilson of Missouri and is going to be a dynamite recruiter

My mom and dad, sister and I all hold degrees from LSU. All of us are from Ponchatoula. So, there's 4 of your number.

Kelly will take the Orgeron model to recruiting. I know a guy who thinks O recruited every single player on the roster.

Other than Frank Wilson who is capable of getting a kid that Alabama or A&M really wants? I know Polian is supposed to be capable but does he really know what has to be done to compete for recruits in the SEC? I have faith in Kelly coaching and controlling the program but at the end of day you have to have the players to compete. Hopefully he can adjust quickly if these guys can’t get it done.

Rumor around the recruiting office is they are bringing back Kevin Faulk at some kind of recruiting position..

I hope that's just a bad joke. No way they fire the guy then rehire him a month later.

So he transitioned roles? I thought he was let go. Never hear that he is still working with the athletic department. Any link about what his new job is?

ETA: Wait is this what you're talking about???

A rumor from this website that Brody said he couldn't confirm? Also it says he declined so why would he now come back after being fired and declining a job? Doesn't make sense.
