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.

Didn't NOLA.com also report that LSU was going to hire the Alabama DC too? An anonymous source how about we hear it directly from Raymond before we dismiss this.

What is A&M doing?

Trying to just mess with us?

A little tactical warfare?

They have a DB coach opening and Raymond is one of the best DB coaches in the country...so that's why they went after him especially with the connection to Chavis

But Raymond bleeds LSU by all accounts. Hope we groom him to be DC one day.

Would like to see Raymond be in a position to take the head coaching job at LSU down the road. Met him last year and was very impressed.

They did millions of dollars in expansion and no longer have Manziel to fill seats.

They must do something to remain competitive and relevant

I don't know. We don't really have an opening for a defensive position right now. The opening we have is on offense.

Serious question, why don't assistant contracts bar lateral moves within the conference?

Why would top assistants agree to that and handicap themselves financially like that?

If you can't beat 'em, hire away all their coaches.

Did you not see your DB's last year? Despite the so-called "stealing" of Chavis, he's the DC, but you still need a DB's coach brah.
