re: Was it ever confirmed that Craig was recruiting players AWAY from LSU?

quote:

Craig had this grandiose idea that he was going to be appointed as the interim OC. Coach Orgeron selected Steve Ensminger which really PO'd Craig.

He basically left Auburn to come to LSU for the same reason after Gus chose Lashlee over him:

Dameyune Craig explains why he left Auburn for LSU Tyler Waddell | 4 years ago Last Friday, LSU receivers coach Dameyune Craig — who left his post with Auburn as co-offensive coordinator this offseason — joined WNSP Sports Radio 105.5 FM and was asked if he felt coach Gus Malzahn chose offensive coordinator Rhett Lashlee over him because of Lashlee’s extensive background in the offense.

Sounds like he needs a lesson in maturity.

Man I wish Burrow would have push his shite back in that video he had the perfect chance to at the end of the video. Joe has probably played that moment back in his head since it happen

When the clock reaches zeroes don't be surprised to see someone wearing purple and gold reenact this in front of A&M's sideline. The way A&M acted after that game was totally out of bounds.

If you think the way A&M acted after the game was out of bounds, why would you think LSU is going to act that same way if they win?

Ed has already said earlier in the week that they will have coaches all over the field during pregame to make sure there are no skirmishes at all and Im willing to bet theyve made it very clear they can not have any incidents that would jeopardize playing time toward their ultimate goal of reaching and winning the CFP.

100% fact.

Confirmed by the guys on 247 back in the day. O found out and fired him on the spot. That's why you see Craig screaming at him after they "won" last year.

DC almost cost LSU both Myles Brennan and Lowell Narcisse by offering a scholarship to Tua Tagovailoa very late. (Who was already signed, sealed and delivered to Alabama)

TT wasn't coming here, but his late recruitment PO'ed both MB and LN.

Craig is one of those "Used Car Salesman" coaches that fall into the "Good recruiters that can't position coach their way out of wet paper bags."

Craig couldn't even hold onto a position on the Staff at Auburn, his Alma Mater. That's all you need to know.........

This. But the Brennan’s and Tagovailoa’s had known each other from the camp circuit, and TT’s family called MB’s and told them that Tua was sticking with Bama. The main problem was when the Brennan’s tried to call Craig the few days after the Tua offer, DC didn’t answer or call them back.

I wish O would have slap that bitch when he came running across the field.

Never heard of this. Adds a little to the recipe of an arse whipping.

He wasn't just recruiting guys away from LSU... he was recruiting specifically TO Jimbo.

---

Which makes sense, when you consider that he was on Jimbo's staff at FSU before coming to LSU. This would seem to make it plainly obvious that Craig came here with the intention of wrecking our recruiting class and building up Jimbo's class before re-joining him.

Which should be investigated by the NCAA and bring serious sanctions. Why, you ask? Because if the NCAA has a rule prohibiting HS coaches from immediately joining a college staff, to restrict the possibility of colleges hiring coaches to gain favor over recruits who played under said coaches; then it should not be allowed for a college coach to recruit players to another school, and subsequently join that school's staff during that same recruiting cycle. That should be strictly prohibited.
