If Florida Atlantic coach Lane Kiffin was indeed close to accepting the offensive coordinator position at LSU under Ed Orgeron, he’s not saying so. On Tuesday, Kiffin instead labeled LSU as a “very intriguing” option before he took the FAU job in December.
“It was very intriguing because of the relationship with coach O,” Kiffin said. “I think he’s going to do a great job there and I think they have arguably one of the best, one of the top defensive coordinators [Dave Aranda] in all of football. He’s done a great job wherever he was.
