LSU football‘s search for a new defensive coordinator has certainly been interesting.
A couple of weeks ago, it looked like the Tigers were closing in on Cincinnati Bearcats defensive coordinator Marcus Freeman.
But that wasn’t the case.
Freeman ended up taking the defensive coordinator job at Notre Dame instead.
On Monday, the Tigers found themselves in a similar situation.
Jane Slater reported that New Orleans Saints defensive line coach Ryan Nielsen was finalizing a deal to become LSU’s new defensive coordinator.
However, it appears that report jumped the gun a bit.
