Beat reporter Wilson Alexander checks in with sports editor Perryn Keys to discuss the big news of the day — wholesale changes to LSU's defensive staff — on an emergency episode.
Brought to you by Champion Wealth Strategies.
Wilson goes through the dismissal of defensive coordinator Matt House, safeties coach Kerry Cooper, cornerbacks coach Robert Steeples and defensive line coach Jimmy Lindsey.
The guys discuss why Kelly made the move, going into detail how LSU never truly improved on defense or developed players in-season.Â
Also, they discuss past defensive coordinators hired by Kelly at Cincinnati and Notre Dame, as well as what effect, if any, the coaching moves have on recruiting.
