LSU Football: How Scott Linehan and Joe Brady were both perfect hires in different ways

New LSU football passing game coordinator Scott Linehan is quite a bit different than his predecessor Joe Brady.

Linehan has a lot more experience than Brady (which is a kind way of saying that Linehan is 56 years old, while Brady is only 30 years old). The Tigers’ new passing game coordinator has already been to the top of the football coaching ladder — Linehan served as the head coach of the St Louis Rams (before they relocated to Los Angeles) from 2006-08.

Brady, on the other hand, is still working his way up the ladder. Prior to joining LSU’s staff in 2019, Brady was an offensive analyst for the New Orleans Saints — a job he landed after he served as a graduate assistant at Penn State for two years.
