re: LSU is seeking to hire Elijah Robinson away from Syracuse (DL coach)
Posted by BilJ on 12/4/25 at 9:40 pm to WicKed WayZ
If a DC that’s interested in the job doesn’t want Raymond and Robinson on his staff, you probably shouldn’t hire that guy

I mean I don’t begrudge the guy for taking a job elsewhere if we don’t want him. He can love LSU but still want to be an on field coach
But he’s really only good at recruiting. He’s been a huge failure as a HC, he was not organized enough to be a true recruiting coordinator (this is why Thomas was needed under Les) and most damning of all is he’s not even a good position coach at the easiest position to coach.
Frank would be best served to have a job like Bags had here, the HS coach liaison job.

He’s never done serious harm to LSU when away
Kelly needed him back because that fat frick needed all the help he could get recruiting.

I kind of want Campbell to go somewhere and fail so I can stop hearing how great he is, he just has no desire to achieve more
re: Don’t fire Corey Raymond: New DC would just need to accept this coach

No one is firing Raymond, what are you blabbering about?
re: Jon Sumrall isn’t Napier

Billy was always a fraud
I think Sumrall is a better coach…but UF has been burning through coaches for a while now. So either they suck at making hires or they have deeper issues. Is Sumrall good enough to overcome all of that ?

Unlikely
Tulane has found the sweet spot of spending just enough to get a quality coach, give him decent NIL for their size, let him move on. Rinse and repeat
A heavier investment likely wouldn’t yield much past that

Wondering in this era and all coaches have to juggle, the schools are wanting to see guys prove they can run a program first before seriously considering them
I don’t know that any got serious looks

Paying him 4mil a year to coach his alma mater, at a school the previous 2 HCs turned into good jobs? Yeah it’s the right call
Could he wait and get a better job? Maybe. But this hiring cycle, the P4 jobs mostly went to guys with HC experience

Anyone but grinch
not sure I've ever encountered a hostile south carolina fan
I believe Les lived in willow grove his last few years here

BK lazy mother fricking arse should catch most of the blame. especially when it comes to recruiting.
I think you nailed it earlier; fit is often something they overrate in these hires. but BK is the outlier where it seems to be accurate
What I can't figure is....
1. Did he always operate that way and it was fine at ND because recruiting there is just far different.
2. He underestimated the job completely. He thought because of our set up, LSU recruits itself and he wouldn't have to put in the work. Only to realize that's not how it works and then checked out.
3. LSU was always a pure cash grab and winning a championship would have been just lagniappe.
Maybe a combo of all 3.
It'll never happen but at some point, I'd love for him to give an honest interview on his time here.
maybe he told stein he could get underwood to transfer there.... got him his last job

’m out of it. He’d have to have some big balls to say he wants to renegotiate now,” Portnoy said. “I don’t think that’s coming down the ‘pike. That would be surreal. I’m out of it.”
While Underwood, a true freshman, has given no indications that he would leave Ann Arbor, things can change quickly with the transfer portal. The 2024-25 offseason was engulfed by the Nico Iamaleava saga, in which the former Tennessee QB jumped ship to UCLA to seemingly chase more NIL money, only for the Bruins to flounder while the Volunteers remained a contender for the College Football Playoff.
“It really seems like if somebody came along and said, ‘Hey Bryce, here’s $20 mill,'” Portnoy said. “I think he could bounce if he wanted to. I don’t think there’s any rules going on with that, as far as I could tell.

that's fair but given the state of our DL, those portal guys were no brainer takes. Now as 777 pointed out, you may credit AT with getting them paid
well aright then, can't argue with much of that
used to seem pretty agent driven
so could be bigger boys saw how much intrigue there is in the college carousel and cut them out?

that's fine but both his critics and fans can't really pinpoint what he does. Even you who "understands" can you speak specifically to what players he identified and brought in? What specifically did he do that restructured our NIL? Was it him or the other guy that came from OM? It's always very vague with him. Now he continues to find work so he must be doing something right, but his longest stint anywhere was his first here. Everything else seems to be a 2 year max
