Lane wanted to retain Frank but move him to an off-the-field role as a recruiting specialist (perhaps in a made up position.)

Frank wants to remain as the RB coach, and is now telling recruits to delay signing or consider other options until he gets clarity on that.

I don't expect Frank to be on staff, as Ole Miss rb coach Kevin Smith is largely expected to follow Lane after the season.

(This is coming from buzz I've heard and reading the tea leaves)

So nothing but rumors currently? If that's the case why let him coach the bowl game if trying to hold recruits hostage?

So it’s out there to other coaches that if Frank doesn’t get what he wants he’ll recruit against his active employer?

Frank’s going to end up HC at Warren Easton before it’s all said and done.

because he's not a good position coach. He's not a good head coach. He has no business having a title like that, nor the salary that it would demand. I would argue he's not even an elite recruiter anymore.

Recruiting connections not as important as they used to be.

At some point the position you coach on the field has ti actually do something.



Eta: thats facts before we even get to whether these rumors are true.

Agreed

Can’t let a fricking RB coach blackmail the entire program.

We’ll figure out those new orleans coaches eventually

You don't have to believe it, but that's been the rumor

You tell me why Richard Anderson and Lamar Brown both re-affirmed their commitments the other day and both are now considering waiting?

Aiden Hall, the guy who's been committed and locked in for over a year, he's considering delaying as well

If there’s even a hint of truth to this, then he has no place here.

But, hopefully, this is nothing more than a rumor.

To not have one recruiter from the state that you’re trying to build a fence around is swimming against the current

This is a pretty serious accusation being peddled but I’ve yet to see it pushed by anyone worthy of trust

I have a hard time believing it

OP passing along this thread as “the rundown” when it’s just a retard speculating is pathetic

That's why I'd take it with a grain of salt.

I don't think (or at least I hope) that Frank wouldn't do that

100%. These rumors just surfaced though. If there’s any truth to this no way he coaches the bowl game.
