So far we’ve had three guys drafted.
Two transferred in last year and the 3rd transferred in two years ago.

Zero development/talent evaluation on players that started at LSU.

We could not afford another season under his direction.

Jayden Daniels saved BK the first two years.

He may have gotten ax’d in year 2 instead of year 4

He would have still made it to year 4. I definitely agree though that Jayden bailed his arse out on not being a total fraud.

Why was more confirmation needed?

In retrospect, we probably should have fired him after 2023. That offense wasn’t 2019, but it was the best in the country. If we had even a competent defense that team beats Ole Miss for sure and maybe Alabama.

Did he have Jayden at all his other coaching stops, don’t be ridiculous. I have no love for BK but he is a proven coach look at his record. We just caught him on the back nine and he was most interested in getting paid.

I think it’s more development than recruiting, but I agree.

I don’t think anyone needed this draft to notice that.

Yet Bama extended Kalen DeBoer... Alabama, Kalen DeBoer agree to new 7-year, $87.5M contract.

I think we actually caught him while on the 19th hole and it was pretty apparent at the time. Didn’t understand it then and never will. You don’t hire a top executive of any entity that generates the kind of revenue LSU football does because it looks good on paper.

Yes he fielded the worst LSU defense I have seen in my lifetime. Idc what the state of the program was when he got here, that’s just unacceptable.

Were you unsure if it was the right move? Surely we didn’t need the draft to justify this

Wish he would have retired AFTER he left LSU instead of when he arrived.

Looking back at everything with BK, he is by far the BIGGEST piece of shite that ever coached here sans maybe Curley Hallman. Both HUGELY unlikable, both GIANT douchebags, and both arrogant self-righteous fricks. I legit have to put him ahead of Hudson Hallman. Add Pillsbury doughboy Scott Woodward as 1(c) to that list.
