In a series of staff changes across college football programs, Louisiana Tech athletics director Eric Wood has been appointed as the new Senior Deputy AD at Ole Miss, a role previously held by Allen Greene who left for Tennessee. Concurrently, the Florida Gators have announced the hiring of Ron Roberts as executive head coach, co-defensive coordinator, and linebackers coach. Roberts, who has worked under Florida's head coach Billy Napier at Louisiana and served as the defensive coordinator at Auburn, is now officially part of Napier's staff at Florida. Additionally, LSU is set to welcome back Corey Raymond as a defensive backs coach after his two-season tenure at Florida. Raymond, a Louisiana native and former LSU cornerback, has a notable history with the Tigers, coaching their DBs from 2012 to 2021. His return, along with Blake Baker, marks a significant rehire for LSU's defensive staff under Brian Kelly, with @Sheadixon being the first to report the move. It's noteworthy that both Raymond and Baker were not retained initially when Kelly first came to LSU.
Blake Baker and Corey Raymond were not retained when Brian Kelly first came to LSU. Two years later, they'll be back on the defensive staff. https://t.co/w2CpykQdOk
