Could Brian Kelly Lure Ole Miss Chief Of Staff Austin Thomas Back To LSU?

Current LSU Director Of Player Personnel Will Redmond is expected to take a new job at Auburn, and assistant personnel staffers Mike Ferrara and Jeremiah Bogan are headed to UConn and Indiana.

Thomas has been at Ole Miss the last two years as the chief of staff, but there have been conversations about him returning to LSU, sources told The Advocate.

Thomas previously worked with the Tigers from 2013-17. One of the first people in college football to receive a general manager title in 2016, he returned to Baton Rouge for the 2021 season after stints at Texas A&M and Baylor.
