D. Craig keeps surfacing, directly or indirectly. what happened that led to his firing?


For one thing I don't think he was a very good WR's coach. Tony Ball sucked when he took over after Henry went to the NFL. I don't think there was any improvement under Dameyune.

The final straw happened on February 1st - signing day. LSU had a JUCO WR committed since 2016. I think it was Stephen Guidry. On signing day the LSU staff found out Guidry would not qualify. Craig was not only recruiting Guidry but he was promoted to recruiting coordinator when CEO was named interim HC.

One of the main responsibilities of a RC is keeping up with prospects - especially commits - grades. To not know a JUCO player is not going to qualify until signing day and burning a scholarship offer is a BIG no-no.

It's funny how you want to blame anyone but O for our recruiting frick ups of late.

You did the same for the Florida nightmare loss.

We loss seven of ten of the top guys in the state this year. You can cover up all you want, but that's on O.

So why didn't O know that his grades could possibly be a problem? O was RC until the Auburn game. Grade problems don't just pop up overnight.

Oh ok, that's right... O should've known about the grade problems, because Guidry committed when O was RC.
