Most likely it will be Neilson the saints dline coach.

And I can also see Kris Richard getting the job if Neilson says no or Kris Richard could come as the safeties coach if he doesn't get a job in the nfl.

Richard turned down NFL secondary coaching jobs in the NFL because he said he believed he was too talented to be just a DB coach so I doubt he takes a college job coaching safeties.

I suspect there is a gentleman's agreement (at minimum) in place between O and Neilson. Or at least I would hope so. O will wait until the Saints season endS before anything formal happens. But in the meantime, LSU will still field calls from others who may be interested just to hedge their bets. If a big time name expresses interest, LSU/O will look into it. It could be someone no one is talking about who is just too good to turn down. Either way, I don't think LSU is "searching". Neilson is the guy unless they get interest from someone else whom they can't refuse.

Remember, these things work both ways. It not just the schools trying to court new coaches. Coaches, via their agents, quietly reach out to AD's ALL THE TIME

Or I could see them bringing in Mike Nolan to coach the linebackers and give Safety’s in the dB all the Cory Raymond

Stop pushing the Richard hire. The dude is unemployed and could be hired at anytime if we really wanted that guy.

Hopefully it will be Nielsen, and if not him Brad White, or David Reeves, but hell no to Kris Richard.
