Brian Kelly has plenty of work to be done now that both Marcus Freeman and Tommy Rees are staying with Notre Dame.
There were some reports, we even reported on, that Corey Raymond and Kevin Faulk were expected to be retained on the LSU staff. However, when he addressed the media Kelly stated that wasn’t the case.
“I have not made any decisions based upon who will stay and who may go,” Kelly said on Wednesday. “I haven’t had any individual conversations with any of them, so any narrative out there is not coming from any conversations that I’ve had with them. They are well-respected and I will get an opportunity to vet out all of those coaches. They’ve done a great job.
I know the business, they know the business. There are realities in this business. But we’ll get to all of those coaches because as I mentioned earlier, they have families, they have lives, and we have to get moving in that direction.”
For now we will look at potential offensive coordinators, none of these have been reported but five that are worth mentioning.
