KP is an OG Bull tho. Was in the first coaching staff ever at USF in 1996. Guy does bleed green and gold. Glad to have him back. 

We know that how?

If it makes you feel any better, he does get my bride's seal of approval and I always thought highly of him (though the latter may offset the former somewhat).

He was here when we recruited and had guys like JPP, Terrell McClain, George Selvie and others in the DLine

I hope we pay him well, he probably made about $49 back in those days.

This is a good hire for line. 

Wonder where some of our defensive coaches go...getting hired from such a bad team is going to be difficult and tough sell.

Some (okay one) become coaches at a Big 10 school.

Isn't hiring former fau staff the same thing Scott did ? Scott also poached more successful fau staff  members. Fau was a lot better under kiffin than Taggs...  I know this guy has Bull connections but these are questionable hires.

I certainly have my reservations about Orlando. He's had some very stout defenses, but in recent years has also had some awful ones. But I'm hyped on KP's hire for DL. His results during prior stops at USF were pretty good, and I believe he's also turned out some good prospects at his other stops since he was last here as well.

KP makes the Orlando hire more tolerable. Hopefully he can recruit.

As much as I love Leavitt, unfortunately that bridge wasn't just burned... it was nuked. Welcome back Coach KP!

I think he is a great coach. Has a legit. It just bad optics we hire two fau coaches i guess. We shall see. All that matters is recruiting and coaching.

    We've talked about getting back to being the toughest, most violent people out there. Let's be the best version of ourselves and really get back to the culture of how we (USF) used to step across the line and play anybody. Let's hold on to the culture of when they were tough … and they (opponents) knew it was going to be long damn day for themselves.
