If O and Kiffin are such good friends and O wants a job why isn't he on staff?

That seems like it would be pretty awkward between friends. Nepotism hires are not at all frowned upon in sports for some dumb reason so it's not even like that's an issue.

Is LSU saying O can't come back? For what it's worth, I don't think bringing him back is a great idea but I'd love to know what Kiffin is actually saying to Orgeron about it.

My guess is DL job is not open and recruiting position is for Frank Wilson.

Maybe because he was fired by LSU?

I'd lean towards LSU telling Lane no to that for now.

Because O is a fricking moron. He's nothing more than a glorified bag man whose usefulness is over in the NIL era. And spare me the he's a great DL coach bullshite. He lasted one season with the Saints before that jig was up.

We just landed a top 3 DL/Recruiter combo in the country. No need or room for CEO.

Perhaps he thinks Ed hanging around may be a distraction.

I have had pretty good friends that I don't want to work with. Some of whom are still good friends.

Coach O has recruited and coached 12 future first round draft choices at the D-line position(s).
I'd say that's slightly more than a bag man.

sounds like the moron is you. see below.

he was not fired from the saints. he coulda stayed. he VOLUNTARILY asked to terminate his contract so he could go with lane and frank to tennessee. He prefers college ball and said as much.

now get back to crying about us hiring LK. Need me to dig up your post history? You cried like an emotional teen girl.

now stfu and go sit in that cuck chair in the corner.

we will let you know again when you can speak so you do not embarrass yourself again like during lane's hiring and this uninformed ignorant post about O that you have spewed.

He’s going to hire that Robinson fella. He is the one that orchestrated that great recruiting class of DL when he was at atm. I’m sure money was the reason but he still got it done
