In the news tonight, LSU announced that Lane Kiffin is bringing Ed Orgeron back to LSU as a coach. Orgeron's title will be special assistant to recruiting and defense. It sounds like he will be heavily involved in recruiting. I think it's funny because it looks like LSU's last buy-out payment to Orgeron was due last December. There was no mention of what Ed's new salary would be.
 
When all of this comes crashing down, he'll do an interview that nobody will be able to understand!

Seriously, this seems super cheesy to me. I can't imagine Kiffin wanting a former LSU HC and one that won a NC offering insights because everyone with half a brain knows that 2019 had nothing to do with coaching.

They worked together previously at USC, and Orgeron is a great recruiter regardless.

Coaching was part of it, just not Ogre’s coaching.
 
This is a crafty move. He may have the communication skills of a brain-damaged parakeet, but somehow he manages to recruit very well anyway. And he was a very competent DL coach, if I'm remembering correctly.

It is a little bit weird, but one area Kiffin usually needs help with is defense and Coach O knows D. I cannot say I wish them well, but if I was an LSU fan, I would not hate this hire.

I agree with Tidewater on the Coach O hire. He certainly isn't the brightest bulb in the pack, but he is a formidable foe in recruiting and there is a lot of talent in Louisiana, Texas, Florida, and Mississippi
