Yeah but that’s not the coaches job. Thats a whole societal issue.

Many of them arrive with 1 or 2 kids. It should be a priority to build good men and football players.

BK just had the gift of gab, put on a show as long as he could and worked in 400 rounds of golf till it all went bad then laughed all the way to the bank to collect his 53mil. Thats all he was to the program POS.

Do you people not realize that this is always how BK handled things? Notre Dame fans literally told us this straight up back when we first hired him. It's not some shocking new development that happened in the last few years

Leadership 101. Know your players or subordinates. What motivates them.everyone is different. You'll play injured or tired for someone who cares.

I’ve managed a ton of people. A personal relationship is absolutely necessary for building culture and team chemistry. In an organization as small as a college football team, this cannot be delegated by the CEO/HC the way it must be in General Electric or Amazon. The HC should know the guy washing the uniforms, and that guy should be telling his family what a great guy the HC is.
I think a lot of people don't understand how accurate this is.
The perfect example is Elko calling out the Matt Salvaggio by name during media days who's job is nothing more than taking the freshmen around campus and helping them get acclimated. I know about this because my wifes family knows Matt very well.
It tells you a lot about the culture and respect going on behind the scenes and it was blatantly obvious that this was missing at LSU.

Maybe he can’t relate to people in the south. Maybe this impersonal methodical way of doing business works in the North?

Why does no one try to explain why these homes are broken in the first place? Is that not important?
It's incredibly important.
But, it's also rather irrelevant to the particular discussion, other than to say that engaged coaches can be a channel to get these young men to change the direction of their lives and not to leave their kids like they were left.

If it is central to informing how these players behave, how can it not be relevant to the present discourse?

The fact that they are fatherless absolutely is relevant.
How or why they became fatherless is not something the LSU coach, or the total number of coaches put together, can fix.
Hope that helps

If a problem cannot be discussed honestly it cannot be solved
