Jan. 19: A whirlwind of change for LSU football

LSU beat writer Wilson Alexander and columnist Scott Rabalais join sports editor Perryn Keys to discuss two weeks' worth of sweeping change within the football program. Brought to you by Champion Wealth Strategies. LSU's defensive coaching staff is now complete. Wilson and Scott break down the additions of Bo Davis, Kevin Peoples, Jake Olsen and Corey Raymond — how much they'll earn, and what each coach can do differently to improve the Tigers' defense. The guys also discuss remaining holes in LSU's roster now that the NFL draft deadline has passed — whether the Tigers can bring in help at defensive tackle and in the secondary. We also discuss the addition of CJ Daniels, a 1,000-yard receiver from Liberty. Also, we discuss the retirement of Nick Saban — his impact on LSU (good and bad); Alabama's hire of Kalen DeBoer; and whether the SEC is more wide-open than it's been for much of the past decade. Finally, we wrap it up with discussion of the offensive coordinator's job, as well as a look at the LSU men's and women's basketball teams. Subscribe to our YouTube channel!
