What kind of impact does he have now? In the future?

In the Fournette thread some one asked about LK's hiring and how it impacts LF.

I think the buzz created by him being hired combined with his recruiting skills should impress any offensive player looking for a reason to say yes to us. The fact that we are within a month of signing day can give us some good momentum as well. The only thing is Fournette is the only offensive guy we have left on our board and he is probably solid to LSU. Going forward to 2015, though, I'd say we are poised to make history in recruiting and on the field performance.

He has always been a great recruiter so the kids are going to like him. He is young and connects the recruits really well. This will be a great hire for us in recruiting and hopefully on the field too.

I think there's something to be said for having former head coaches (ie: Cristobal, Kiffen) on your staff. I may not mean much in the long haul but it looks nice on the resume....

From the footage that I've seen of JM, I think he is just as good if not better than LF.

Mixon looks good, but saying he is better then LF (at this point) is quite the overstatement... Now, only the future will tell what happens (you never know). i would be happy landing Mixon, though... I think we were probably too late getting there, if we ever really did.

What about Adoree Jackson? I know he was a pretty big lean to USC before Kiffin got fired. Now that CLK is at Bama, could his interest shift?

Good question about Adoree. I seem to feel that a lot of CA kids don't like Kiffin anymore. Did you see his class this year at USC? Kids would only commit after Kiffin was fired. Kiffin probably wanted to get as far from CA as he could. I would like to see Tyler Luatua back in the mix, but I doubt Kiffin has any pull there.
Wonder what Slive is saying about it. He dislikes Kiffin as much as anyone. At least he's not going to be a head coach.

I've heard they're complaining because their head phones no longer work on their Ipods. :) Don't know how to do the blue type, but yes, that was a sarcastic reference to the UT coaches not having headphone access to the press box to start the game in 09.
