LSU is losing another assistant to the coaching carousel with Nicholls hiring [autotag]Brent Haring[/autotag] as its next head coach.
D1Baseball’s Kendall Rogers reported the new. Haring will replace former Nicholls head coach Mike Silva, who Arkansas State hired after leading Nicholls to an NCAA Tournament appearance in 2024.
Haring joined LSU in August of 2023 as the director as baseball operations after serving as the associate head coach with BYU. This is Haring’s first head coach opportunity in the college ranks, but he previously worked as the head man for the American Samoa National Team.
A Utah native, Haring has spent most of his baseball career out west, but he handled BYU’s recruiting operation and should be familiar with the state of Louisiana after working with LSU.
Haring is the second LSU assistant to leave in recent weeks after [autotag]Terry Rooney[/autotag] joined former Tigers head coach [autotag]Paul Mainieri[/autotag] at South Carolina.
