Why are people on here acting like Kiffin is letting him go? That isn’t being reported anywhere

This is time to panic not slow down and think.

Has it officially been announced he is being retained?

If Kiffin thinks Raymond and Wilson don’t need to be on his staff then so be it. Maybe he wants to come in and create his own staff without any guys hanging over from previous head coaches. Eventually LSU will have to move on from those guys anyway. They won’t be around forever.

Bring in Coach O to handle the recruiting and find position coaches to fill their roles. If NOLA kids don’t want to get onboard there’s plenty talented recruits around the state.

Why don’t you let the man choose his own staff? If he wants to clean house and hire new faces so be it.

Probably not the worst idea to get fresh blood in the program instead of all these watered down “one of us” guys anyway.

Guessing he would want the DC in place first, give him some input in the hires.

Because people struggle living in information vacuums so they have to make up bullshite to fill it

Absolutely nothing is founded at this point. It’s insane

A lot of people need to calm down about Raymond, Wilson, and Baker. Kiffin was just introduced yesterday. There’s no way he had time to figure out coaching staff and land every recruit plus add on some extras. Baker is up in the air which leaves Raymond up in the air. We are going to have to go the portal route heavily just like when Kelly arrived.

If Baker stays then Raymond stays and probably most of the defensive staff. Frank has an off field role or quits.

If Baker goes to Fulane then O comes fo D line and recruiting. Frank has off field role or is gone.

That worked sooooo well for BK when he first got to LSU…… IMO we gotta keep Raymond for sure.

Need I remind you what the DBs looked like when Brian Kelly made that mistake?

We have players that we need to keep. Especially DB's. LK needs to discuss their future with them and see how important a coach is for them to not leave.
I know I know, we can't let the players dictate.....but they can be consulted. not all but the key ones you know who they are .

Wonder why Tulane doesn’t want Frank Wilson but wants Coach O. You would think with all his New Orleans connections he could do well there.
