But still, Coach O is Coach O. The former LSU head coach has been a constant presence since Kiffin announced his return to Baton Rouge back in May. Orgeron has been at LSU's Elite Football Camps and NIL signings, not to mention a very active presence at Fall Camp thus far.
Orgeron has worked with Kiffin on multiple occasions. They were both on Pete Carroll's staff at USC, and Orgeron was on Kiffin's staff at Tennessee and USC.
"I think it's the perfect situation for everybody involved," said Kiffin. "For him to go back somewhere else. To come back to LSU and his passion for the state, and the players of the state and growing up here, and having won a national championship on top of that. But then also working for me. It's pretty easy for him to sit and sell to a kid why to come to LSU."
