Like we said earlier, #LSU has been working on this for several days, knowing that Grimes was leaving. James Cregg has already agreed to replace Jeff Grimes.

Pretty much everywhere he has been, the olines produce quality linemen and dont allow a lot of sacks....

Cregg coached the o-line at USC and Tenn with Kiffin and Coach O.

wiki

"Cregg became the offensive line coach at Southern Cal from 2010-2013. He landed a player on the First-Team All-Pac 12 in all four of his seasons with the Trojans, which included future first round picks Tyron Smith and Matt Kalil."

interview from 2011

Anyone wanna guess how this affects our committed OL, especially the two JUCOs?

I guess we tell them Grimes was a great guy and we wish him well but we got you the guy that coached up the best LT in the NFL (Tyron Smith) and Matt Kalil. He also has a SB ring.

One hell of a resume. Multiple NFL teams, USC % Tenn, and a Superbowl ring.

Can't do anything but credit O here. Great job and very proactive. Nice change from the Les administration where hires seemed to go on endlessly. Great hire IMO and the swiftness should hold the class.

Hey, in defense of Les, it takes awhile for the pit to heat up for the evaluation to start
