This is probably the #1 area where LSU needs to improve.

No idea but I’m a bit concerned. Folks point out that he did well with Bama and Saban but that was with a very good runner at QB (Milroe). Kentucky didn’t have a great run game with him and most of the comments I’ve seen from their fans indicate that they are happy that he’s leaving.

Saw Kentucky fans on Twitter today saying that LSU will regret the hire. But he was coaching at Kentucky…. So?

Think I'll trust a Saban hire.

I think you could throw a dart at a map, hire the nearest college OL coach, and it would be an improvement over what we saw from Brad Davis this season.

Lane wont let the offensive unit struggle because of the OL. If this guy's struggles, he will move on. Im confident a more competent offensive staff will be able to have the whole unit clicking or at least be able to hide the weak links if needed

He was head coach at youngstown for 5 seasons. Had a record of 31-26.

I like a guy with head coaching experience

These coaching circles intrigue me. How did Lane decide to get this guy? Their time at Alabama didn’t overlap

The state of Kentucky doesn't have enough Bourbon that will be needed for them to cope with Sloan's playcalling.

Kiffin gets advice from Saban. I’m sure he ran this one past him and obviously Saban approved. Kentucky is Kentucky

We have at least 5 coaches that were assistants for Nick Saban, he probably gives his opinion on each one before the hire. Kentucky was physical for sure.

Kentucky ran the ball decently this year. Better than us.
