Meh not a fan of hiring a coach with zero coaching experience at a high level when this is your make or break year.
Who are we hiring in the middle of spring? You need someone available ASAP to work with your guys.

Do you ever have anything positive to say, and why do you post nothing but negative about me. I have never attacked you and I don't understand your nothing but personal attacks.

He hasnt coached this level before so none of us can possibly know if this is a good or bad hire. Best thing you can do is trust the guy who einterviewed him

It is a great unknown about how well he will coach. My bigger concern is how good of a recruiter will he be. He’s probably never done that before and recruiting def lineman is crucial to competing for titles.

Agreed, but whoever runs the recruits.lsu instagram page, said that he read what kyle said in his interview on his recruiting philosophy and what his plan for that was and said it was really good. Take that for whats it worth but sounds like he has some idea of what and how he wants to do that.

There is no baseline to under or over estimate him.

Desperate Hire, BK is going to get fired trying to appease the LSU culture. Majority of the kids he will come in contact with don't know him from a can of paint and could care less about his NFL and LSU accolades.

Awesome motor. That moment with his boys in locker room will tug on you. Look forward to seeing him coach his pkayers

TD hasn’t snorted this much copium about a coaching hire since the Pelini announcement in 2020

Agree. I worked with Kyle’s father and know Kyle. He’s a leader of men. He’s a man amongst men. Was the guy everyone turned to as the leader of the Buffalo defense. If I didn’t know him I’d be a little skeptical, but I believe this man can coach. That Ruston High defense was outstanding under him. Kyle didn’t have to coach high school ball. He did it to help out and wasn’t paid until they made him take a salary. There has been countless opportunities to coach elsewhere and he stayed around Ruston to be with his family and helped RHS become relevant again. It’s time for him to take the next step. Saban loved him. Miles loved him. Buffalo considered him when he was a veteran as a coach on the field. Williams had been going back to Buffalo a whole lot since last December and was about to be an analyst until a spot could be made for him permanently. We got a guy that will be a great coach and someone that can relate to these young men.
100% this all day.
What these idiots forget about recruiting is the NIL game has changed EVERYTHING. It is about projecting talent and using that projection from the view from a medical perspective ie frame, ability to add weight, etc, to the intangibles like leadership. The ability to relate the skills will never be an issue with him. Because of NIL and the resources available to him, he is going to crush it as a Dline coach. His focus and intensity and leadership in Buffalo is legendary. It’ll be the same here.

GREAT LSU hire and I'll take a BIG dose of that type of pregame speech & energy prior to us coming out of the tunnel at Clemson in Sept.
Posted on 3/7/25 at 12:55 pm to saturncube21
I’d never misunderestimate him

It’s not desperate. At what point should LSU start considering pumping fresh blood into the program? They recycled a coach that was considered to be the best in the business into that role but he didn’t want to stay. Think about it, even Bo Davis was new blood at some point in his coaching career. A lot of these long time college coaches are starting to get phased out. LSU does well to be proactive.

After the first, second and third coach told you no, you are right it's not a desperate hire.
Posted on 3/7/25 at 1:36 pm to Kool Kaliper
Then where should they turn then. Any way you slice it is going to be a New Hand on staff anyway. Might as well jump on someone who has had a great deal of success doing what that room needs to get done. Can’t afford to get caught up in the old way of thinking and be left behind. There are a number of Schools going through similar transitions. Some are struggling because they are having trouble getting used to having young coaches taking over for Older coaches who’ve been there forever and now they’re gone and change has come. College football is not the same my friend.
