According to James Smith with NOLA.com, LSU defensive back coach Corey Raymond will remain at LSU despite recent chatter that he could be headed to a different school for another job.

quote:
Reports surfaced that Tigers defensive backs coach Corey Raymond, who just signed a two-year extension, was being courted by Texas A&M and Alabama for the same position. A source at LSU, however said, said those reports are "unequivocally false."

Raymond, who is quickly garnering a reputation as one of the premier defensive back coaches and recruiters in the country, is "not going anywhere" and is "a vital piece of this staff", the source said.

Raymond, a New Iberia native, played cornerback at LSU from 1987–1991. He has been the defensive back coach at LSU since 2012.

Not as good as cooper IMO but a top 10 DB coach no question!

I'm glad to see that he is staying, and am not sure if there was ever a legit question about this. We certainly are stacked with coaching talent on the D side of the ball. Now the O side .......... another animal altogether.

I remember when people on here thought he was a horrible hire and that there would be a MAJOR drop off when Cooper left...love the rant... HAH

I can't believe A&M thought they could actually just take 3 coaches from LSU's staff. They must be really butt hurt from that 4 losses in a row that they figured the only way they could beat LSU is by taking their coaches.
