College Baseball Insider Kendall Rodgers reports that LSU has hired Arizona Baseball coach Jay Johnson as its next head coach.
Johnson, 44, was one of three finalists for the job, along with ECU's Cliff Godwin and Notre Dame's Link Jarrett.
Johnson, a native of Oroville, California, took the Wildcats to the College World Series twice during his five seasons in Tucson and was the runner-up to Coastal Carolina in the 2016 Championship series. His overall record at Arizona was 208–114.
Before his time with the Wildcats, Johnson was the head coach at Nevada from 2014-2015, where he posted a 72–42 record. During the 2015 season, the Wolf Pack won the Mountain West title, and Johnson was named Mountain West Coach of the Year.
