Anyone else realize that Brian Kelly assembled a better recruiting staff than Orgeron had at any point while at LSU?

It's also nice how none of the staff is there just to recruit. All of them are known as very good all around coaches.

Kind of early to make that claim. We'll need to see what they can do with a full cycle. For all his faults, Orgeron recruited pretty damn well.. despite a few big misses. Particularly in-state guys.

I think Frank is going to be invaluable to this staff.

Yep and competent leaders that will command the respect of their position groups. There will be total buy in with this staff once they get their guys in.

No it's not as these guys have track record. The only one without is Steeples who I would bet good money he turns out being elite.

Its a new game. We need used car salesmen to get them into the program.

Still need a couple of relationship builders on staff to keep them from transferring.


Its all about the $$$$ right now.

I'd still take A&Ms recruiting staff of Franklin, Grant, Jackson, Hamilton, Lincoln and Washington.

Something tells me his staff is only Franklin, Grant, & maybe Jackson.

IMO, the most important member of the staff for this year is going to be Polian with talent evaluation in the portal

Literally impossible to say at this point. Just a little premature.

New team, new staff. Until they get their first class at LSU (2023) we won't know. I'm hoping and expecting that Kelly makes sure that the guys we recruit won't be suspended for weed or academics or won't lack leadership and a team mentality. A 5 star athlete that doesn't play or is a locker room distraction does LSU no good.

Buy in or bye bye.

Kirk Russell's character from "Used Cars" would be epic.

The new staff needs to close with Citizen and Mathews to get this thing moving in the right direction on the recruiting trail. Then find players in the portal to solidify the roster.

And yet half the players he recruited are not even eligible to play now because they didn’t even go to class. So what good did it do?
