So everyone has seen these videos of BK and recruits, Walker Howardand Danny Lewis, whether you think this is embarrassing, lame, dumb, or whatever, it’s getting views. Walker Howard’s is currently at 3.9 million and Danny Lewis (a 3 star recruit) at 7.1 million!!!! And Lewis’s post hasn’t been up a full 24 hours yet. That’s huge, especially in today’s age of NIL. BK knows what he’s doing, regardless of how goofy he may look to you.

As long as he’s bringing in big time recruits, KEEPING them, and being authentic, who cares about the dancing. I’d prefer he just nod and stand there but this isn’t his first go around. He knows what he’s doing

I wonder if Kirby's going to imitate BK's second video since since he can't come up with his own shite. WATCH...BK is about own the SEC!

I must say, that is an astonishing amount of views. LSU should put subliminal messages in those videos to reel in more dancing recruits.

Looks like they're having fun. I don't see a problem.

If he just nod and stood there, those videos wouldn’t get a combined 11 million views. BK knows how to get peoples attention and if it means people laughing at him, so be it. He doesn’t give AF

I actually really agree with the OP. It’s sad though that we’ve got to think this way these days

Kelly generally comes across as a stern, disciplinarian type. I think those videos do a good job showing a fun, somewhat goofy side of him.

Lane poking fun but he would do the same thing if he had the recruits vesting him that BK has in BR.

Lane’s mad because BK is making is mark in the social media world, just as Lane has, but in a different way.

It’s NIL time. It’s publicity. He certainly doesn’t seem intimidated or timid. I Love it!!

If Kelly was petty, he'd have made a "get your popcorn" reference.

Lane has the 23rd ranked class with 4 4-stars. He should spend less time on social media and more time focusing on being successful as a HC in the P5.

There is no such thing as bad publicity.

He is some middle aged dude running around in hoodies trying to act cool. It’s is really strange the fascination with a guy that has really not produced much in his career.

BK's on screen personality is "Dry Toast." He needs to do some stuff with these guys to let them know he has a flip side and can bond somehow with them.

Saban is a similar personality and fortunately for him he has a lot of skins on the wall but he has posted some things over the years to let his players and recruits know he has a fun side too. Nothing this level though.
