Sounds like Kiffin loves his RB coach, LSU and LK need to figure out a way to retain him on the staff somwhere though. Frank has done so much for LSU man, he would do anything to remain on the staff.

He was the WR Coach on Kiffin’s Tennessee staff.

Frank Wilson is way overrated now. His running backs have left a lot to be desired. His RB rotations have been terrible, at best. With NIL, he's no longer the recruiter he once was. Quite frankly, I'm tired of him holding the university hostage over some perceived recruiting advantage. Other schools have been able to come into Louisiana the past few years and cherry pick some of the best players from Louisiana.

10 years ago I may have agreed with this, but no longer feel that way.

To those that think Wilson can’t recruit anymore, think about what we now know about the cranberry we had as a coach. Kelly wasn’t even taking phone calls from recruits.

Someone had to be keeping those classes together and shy of 1-2 players in the last few years the recruiting classes were’t bad.

That tells me if you keep Wilson and add LK, we could have the #1 recruiting classes and #1 portal class at the same time.

I have no problem if anyone & everyone on this offensive staff is dismissed without fanfare.

Defense is another story, but I’m not about to go to bat for Frank or Atkins— they were part of this, and by “this” I mean the literal worst fricking offense in LSU football history.

Think about that for a second.

Exactly the way I feel.

Frank can’t even figure out that Berry is better than Durham. Send him down the road.

Apparently Lane is bringing his rb coach with him. Oh well. We've done fine without Frank before. But we do need some La. guys on staff. That's the advantage of coaching at Lsu.

There are so many non-coaching positions that surely he can be valuable in one of those, or in Athletic Dept somewhere

Let Frank be an analyst and ‘players coach’. Kind of a psychological support job. As a football coach, Frank has been turrible.
