re: Here is what I have heard on the assistant coaches

The LSU football program hasn't wasted much time searching for a new offensive coordinator only six days after the departure of former coordinator Gary Crowton.

Scot Loeffler, a former NFL and college assistant, is the latest name linked to LSU's vacant offensive coordinator position. Loeffler joins former Louisville and Tulsa head coach Steve Kragthorpe and current Louisville offensive coordinator Mike Sanford as the three coaches LSU coach Les Miles has reportedly interviewed.

Loeffler, 36, was Florida's quarterbacks coach for the past two seasons but was not retained by new Gators coach Will Muschamp. Loeffler is also a Michigan man, having served as Michigan's quarterback from 1993 to 1996, which could help spark an interest from Miles.

After spending time as a graduate assistant and Central Michigan's quarterback coach, Loeffler became the Wolverines' quarterbacks coach from 2002 to 2007. Loeffler was also the quarterbacks coach for the Detroit Lions in 2008 before he accepted the same position at Florida

he was a finalist a few years ago. He's been pretty awful ever since, so I'm sure Les is dying to give him a raise.
