Look into how Brian Kelly hires coaches and LSU structure (WARNING: From BK disposition)

***BK disposition about Frank Wilson lawsuit from Lewis***
***Wilson did get cleared background check***

Look, I am with everyone that LSU needs to be held to highest standard in football. CBK won the SEC west and 10 games in his first year which IMO set unfair expectations for this season. There’s so much disorganization behind the scenes and even though I am thankful for Miles and O for the championships, they may have set back LSU a decade.

Kelly is trying his best to get back some organization, but it will take time. Lots of factors including Rempe leaving to be AD, Coach Cain late departure, Coach Lindsey health scare, etc. I think Kelly likes to delegate and approach the coaching world like a politician. We just have to give the guy some time to get this Fortune 500 company back to where it belongs, all the way at the top, baby!

Kelly said the LSU football program was unorganized when he took over He said LSU football was dysfunctional, lacked a clear organizational chart and clear lines of communication and accountability. “It was in my first few days, very disorganized, lacked clarity,” he said. “There was poor communication. And I could sense that from the very first day in the building. The organization of what is considered in many ways a Fortune 500 company was very, very poor.”

According to the deposition, Kelly said Wilson's background check was handled by Stephanie Rempe, the current athletics director at Nevada, who at the time was LSU's executive deputy athletics director and chief operating officer. "(She) really worked with me during this transition with personnel and hiring. And she did all of that work for me," Kelly said in the deposition. "... She handled the personnel dismissals, severance packages and, again, working directly with (human resources), when it came to background checks." Kelly further explained in the deposition that he usually just gets a thumbs-up or thumbs-down on background checks for hiring candidates. "It was simply ... cleared or not cleared," Kelly said, adding that the only potential exception being that sometimes when a candidate would clear the background check, the candidate would have a potential issue about which Kelly would need to be notified. "It might be a financial issue or something to that effect," Kelly said in the deposition.
