The LSU gymnastics coaching staff will remain intact after the University of Georgia targeted Jay Clark and his assistants to return to his former school in the wake of the Tigers’ first national championship, according to sources with knowledge of the situation.

Raises and new contracts are in store for Clark and assistants Garrett Griffeth, Courtney McCool Griffeth and Ashleigh Gnat, sources said. Details have not been announced.

According to a report from the Athens (Georgia) Banner-Herald, Clark was at the top of Georgia’s list to replace former Gym Dogs great Courtney Kupets Carter, who was fired Friday after seven seasons. The Griffeths were reportedly also on Georgia’s list of top candidates, either to come with Clark as assistant coaches or to become co-head coaches should Clark turn down the job.
