Wilson coached Fournette when he was the running back coach and recruiting coordinator at LSU from 2010-2015. He returned to Baton Rouge in 2022 as running back coach under Brian Kelly and took over as interim head coach after Kelly was fired on October. 26.

Wilson is expected to be named running back coach at Ole Miss sometime after LSU's Bowl game against Houston on Dec. 27, which LSU fans have mixed feelings about.

Fournette is right. There is nothing to gain by crucifying Frank Wilson. He gave a great deal to LSU. It just didn't work out...Life.

What are the rumors? That LSU running game was bad?

RB can't run if there is no blocking unless it Barry Sanders!

"RB can't run if there is no blocking unless it Barry Sanders!" Nobody lost more yards going backwards than he.

Yeah, but he averaged 5.0 yards per carry. If he had not been willing to take chances, he never would have made an impact behind his terrible o lines.

What rumors exactly?? Not shocking that LF7 would be defending CFW. I just didn't know there was alot of "rumors" going on. Thought Kiffin was just choosing "his guy" over the guy who was here before. Not really abnormal in coaching changes

The stupid arse rumor about Wilson telling kids not to commit to LSU yet because he doesn't know if he will be retained. One loud mouth arse LSU media guy ran with some bullshite that NO OTHER MEDIA MEMBER stated happened. These folks crucified him over one rumor. And it shows there is either a thin line between love and hate, or MFers weren't ever in your corner to begin with. We toss position coaches dyed in the soil of Louisiana away just because they haven't performed in a couple years like we didn't have dysfunction every damn where. No well wishes, or nothing, just frick offs from the fairweather fans.

The Rant has got a great big hole, right in the middle of itself. And can never hate enough, or complain enough, or inflict enough harsh criticism to ever fill it.

If our O-line and Brad Davis didn’t suck so much, we may have been able to run the ball.

Frank Wilson is a great guy. Fully support Frank whatever he decides to do. Thanks for all you have done for LSU.

LSU fans can be the best AND worst, at times

CDawson•2 months

But mostly the worst. The biggest cry baby, complaining, know it alls that love bashing kids and coaches behind anonymity. Gutless and spineless.

No one said Frank Wilson was a bad man. Crucifying is a bit much. Soft arse world.

"look at the guys he has had in the pros that played on teams and who impacted the games".....so, you. Who else?

Datbayoubengal•2 months

Spencer Ware, Stevan Ridley, Jeremy Hill. LSU has had a major problem with injuries ending NFL careers. Derrius Guice would have been a monster but the injury and the other stuff...

king47•2 months

No sir Stevan Ridley is a Larry Porter guy and has said so many times. Your credibility in tarnished if you are going to make that statement

G Khan•2 months

Agree. FW has been great to LSU and vice versa. Have some class and leave the door open for him to return one day.

LSUnation78•2 months

So Fournette… is saying Frank Wilson taught him how to be a pro in the nfl?

I’m… confused by your tactics

BIIIL•2 months

People are allowed to have opinions, but not to spread rumors. My "opinion" is that Coach Wilson would like to bring one or more of LSU running backs with him to Ole Miss. Anyone who thinks otherwise is also entitled to their opinion.

TigerFanatic99•2 months

If Frank Wilson was everything that embodies LSU, he wouldn't be working for Ol' fricking Miss.

JOHNN•2 months

This comment is beyond dumb even for TD standards. So lets break it down:
-Wilson wants to coach and Wilson also wants to make a lot of money.
You still following?
-Kiffin isnt giving him an opportunity to coach so therefor he is going to another school that will allow him to coach.

How the hell is that so hard to understand?

Luckydog•2 months

Agree me and buddies all support Frank! Nothing but a good man and coach! Damn internet idiots!!

bigtig•2 months

I’m riding with Frank. He gave LSU his all. I appreciate that.

Leonard Fournette sounds illiterate most of the time when he talks or writes. This post is actually pretty good writing for him. Lol

Geauxgurt•2 months

Stop this garbage. Frank is about Frank. That is fine too. Just stop saying he’s all about LSU. He sucked as a running backs coach and a head coach. Just a good recruiter that found a way to regress every running back from 2022 on st LSU once they got more of his coaching
