I’m in the minority but Mike Nolan could do well with Coach Raymond

Yeah I know he is a retread and got fired from the Cowboys but if Reeves, Schumann, Lukabu or any other young targets say no, I wouldn’t mind Nolan for a year or 2.
He is probably an NFL lifer but I don’t expect him to be anything more than a LB coach in the NFL for the next couple years.
I’ve mentioned him a few times that I think he could be good at LSU. He runs 3-4 and 4-3.
He fits in well with Raymond and Orgeron being a good Linebacker coach.
Short stint at LSU in the 80’s.
He is one of the few retread NFL coaches I wouldn’t hate.

I would prefer the other guys mentioned or John Heacock, even though he is old, but Nolan wouldn’t be a horrible fallback if he was interested.

This is a terrible idea.

Did anybody watch the Cowboys defense play this past season?
Yikes!

My Dallas Cowboys had their worst defense since 2013 when it was last in the league.. coached by Rob Ryan. Nolan will not be a college DC at a major program

If LSU is in the market for someone older than Pelini, less able to connect to players than Pelini, less likeable than Pelini, and married to a more obsolete defensive mindset than Pelini, then Mike Nolan is the man.
