Kevin Smith Joins Lane Kiffin at LSU: A Game-Changer for the Tigers' Running Game
Lane Kiffin continues to make waves in the college football world, this time by poaching Ole Miss running backs coach Kevin Smith to join him at LSU. Smith will be one of the highest-paid RB coaches in the country, earning close to $1 million per year. Known for his success in developing running backs, Smith helped guide Kewan Lacy to an impressive season with 1,366 rushing yards and 21 touchdowns. He also played a role in the development of Quinshon Judkins, who had standout seasons before transferring to Ohio State. Smith's addition to the LSU coaching staff is expected to bolster the team's running game, which struggled in the previous season. This move is seen as a significant win for LSU and a loss for Ole Miss.
