    Ken is awesome! He took me to ER and helped answer questions and was like a parent when my parents couldn’t be there. Best trainer ever!

    Good luck, especially if you’re unlucky enough to be on the mens team… the culture has shifted a whole 180 since he took over. He is currently being carried by athletes that are talented, but next year he’ll have a much harder time.

    Cares About AcademicsOld School Mentality

    I think shes out of the college coaching game, but writing just in case. One teammate of mine had a mental breakdown under Fran. Another was close to a breakdown but she transferred. It was unfortunate that LSU admin didn’t investigate why she was hospitalized. It was unfortunate that another teammate warned the sports psych but he didn’t step in. Athletes staying safe should be #1

    Has been successful but does not care about his players beyond their performance on the field. Over recruits and over utilizes the transfer portal. Assistant coaches don't have nice things to say about him.
