Kiffin, Key, Sumrall, that’s your list.

That’s it, look no further than these 3. Pros and cons to all of them.

Kiffin is an offensive wizard. LSU almost assuredly would have an elite offense year in, and year out. Kiffin is still young enough to coach at LSU for 15-20 years if everything goes as planned. Kiffin is a media darling, and would make for entertaining press conferences, and interviews. He’s been around the game a long time now, and has Ole Miss better than they have been in 60 years. Thinking about Kiffin with Louisiana athletes and LSU talent, you’re almost foaming at the mouth thinking about LSU dropping 50 burgers on people. Kiffin just has to hire good DC’s when the time comes, and let good recruiters, recruit. Kiffin has also struggled with big games every now and again.

Brent Key at Georgia Tech has been nothing short of remarkable. You have to give this dude a ton of credit, and respect. Key is a young fiery coach, that I know would get the players up for games. Seems like he’s somewhat of a rah rah guy, that would have the players ready to run through a brick wall for him, and for LSU. If you want LSU to get back to that dawg mentality, and shove peoples shite in, Key is the man for the job. Things to consider, Key runs the ball a little much for my liking, and probably many others here. Haynes King has turned into a big time college QB (he should he’s been in school for 5-6 years) so are some of Key’s accomplishments based mainly on having a 25 year old QB, and running through a weak ACC conference?

I’m really starting to warm up to the Sumrall idea. Sumrall is a real young coach with a lot of passion. LSU could use both of these. Sumrall has only been a HC for 4 seasons, but he is 38-10 overall as a HC, across 2 different programs. 12-2 at Troy, 11-2 at Troy, 9-5 at Tulane, 6-1 at Tulane. Sumrall lost a freshman phenom QB at Tulane in Darian Mensah to Duke because they paid him 4 million, and Sumrall has kept on chugging along, having Tulane rolling again, only 1 loss to Ole Miss. Sumrall has had Frickin Troy and Tulane both ranked in his tenure so far. Now you could say Fritz built up Tulane, and he did, but Sumrall has kept the ball rolling, and losing Mensah was a big hit, that he has maneuvered around quite well. You could also get Sumrall for a hell of a whole lot cheaper than both Kiffin, and Key. Cons here are that, you never know how these Group of 5 guys are going to work out. We all know how guys like Tom Herman, and Billy Napier turned out. I trust Sumrall more than both of them though.

All 3 of these guys have major pros about them. All are very young, Lane is respectfully still young for a HC in college, all will bring passion, all will bring some flare with them, all will breathe life back into the LSU program. So the question is, which one fits best, and which one will succeed at the highest level? Kiffin and Key I’m assuming will take a King’s Ransom to bring on, while we could poach Sumrall for a much cheaper price tag.
