A little over a week after officially losing their special teams coordinator/defensive line coach, LSU has apparently found a replacement.
While the school has yet to confirm the move, the Newark Star-Ledger is reporting that Thomas McGaughey has left the New York Giants and accepted a position on Les Miles’ Tigers coaching staff. Based on the report, McGaughey will assume Joe Robinson‘s former roles -- special teams coordinator and defensive line coach.
McGaughey spent the past four seasons with the NFL’s Giants. Prior to that, he spent two seasons (2005-2006) with the Denver Broncos and one season (2002) with the Kansas City Chiefs.
His only collegiate coaching experience came at his alma mater. From 2002-2003, McGaughey was Houston’s special teams coordinator as well as serving as cornerbacks coach during his last year with the Cougars.
