LSU head coach Ed Orgeron has kept former players from all generations around the program since taking the interim head coaching spot more than a year ago.

Now, Orgeron appears to be inching closer towards adding one of the most recognizable faces in LSU football history to his staff in Baton Rouge.

Former LSU running back and Louisiana native Kevin Faulk is in line to join the program's support staff. The news was first reported by The Advocate's Ross Dellenger, who added that the decision must be vetted through the Southeastern Conference office's given the IAWP rule, which prevents schools from hiring coaches who are "Individuals Associated With a Prospect". The rule prevents colleges from hiring high school coaches or those associated with a prospect in order to sign a recruit, and there's now a two-year window in place that serves as a buffer zone before and after the recruit's enrollment.

If the move is made, Faulk would join a growing support staff that also includes a recent hire of former Mandeville High head coach Guy LeCompte. Faulk is currently coaching at Carencro High in Louisiana. Two former members of Orgeron's support staff, Greg McMahon and Jerry Sullivan, were promoted to on-field coaching role this month. McMahon will be the team's new special teams coordinator, while Sullivan will serve as pass game coordinator and senior offensive assistant.

Former tight ends coach and H-Backs coach Steve Ensminger was promoted to offensive coordinator this month, replacing Matt Canada, who split ways with the program after one season.

Faulk's addition would not allow him to coach on the field or recruit on the road, but he would join the staff for day-to-day operations.
