He WASN'T showing Frank Wilson or Blake Baker (when he interviewed for Tulane) the door.


Baker no but it’s been pretty clear from early on that he wasn’t interested in keeping Frank as a position coach. So if Frank wanted to remain as an on field coach he needed to look elsewhere, it’s not that hard to understand.

quote:

probably a third of the people who downvoted me also probably said he should have retained Wilson


What some random posters on a message board think doesn’t matter
There’s also people that thought Frank should go and still others like myself that were kind of ambivalent about it, the RB play hasn’t been exactly been blowing up my skirt the last 4 years and I’m not worried about Kiffin recruiting so if he wanted to keep Frank or Frank was willing to take an off the field job great, if not, no biggie.

quote:

if (BIG IF) Cortez Hankton goes to Ohio State, you're telling me that a WR coach is good enough to coach at OSU but not at LSU?


First of all this is a classic strawman, but more importantly don’t think he’s literally the only good WR coach? Do you think WR play at LSU was exceptional the last 2 years? Do you think Kiffin has not had good WR coaches? Some people get overly attached to the coaches they know. Again a new coach gets to name his staff.

So my original question still stands. Btw


No i your question is misleading and misses the point

baker interviewed for the head coach position at Tulane and decided to stay as a coordinator because he said that he thought what kiffin would do at LSU would open more and bigger doors for him than Tulane.

in other words bringing up baker is actually hurting your argument ,a whole lot.
how many coaches are turning down head coaching jobs,just to have a chance to be a coordinator under a new head coach

As a bama fan, Kiffin is gonna pick his coaches.

If someone has a crush on the old coaches, sorry you got heartbroken

I now see why some of you idiots say what you say..

You think Wilson left LSU for Ole Miss by choice?

That’s not necessarily Kiffin’s decision you dolt someone has to coach that game and it wouldn’t be Kiffin
