LSU football’s 2021 coaching staff is going to be great.

LSU football officially replaced offensive coordinator Steve Ensminger and passing game coordinator Scott Linehan on Wednesday.

The Tigers hired Carolina Panthers quarterbacks coach Jake Peetz to serve as their offensive coordinator and Panthers analyst DJ Mangas to serve as passing game coordinator.

Mangas was previously at LSU in 2019 with Joe Brady.

Peetz, who will turn 38 in April, is a Nebraska graduate that’s been coaching since 2006. He’s spent time at Alabama under Nick Saban.
