LSU has added another offensive analyst to its coaching staff.

DJ Mangas, who spent the last two seasons as the offensive coordinator at William & Mary, is listed on LSU's official coaching staff.

Mangas played wide receiver for the Tribe from 2008 to 2011, crossing paths with newly hired LSU passing game coordinator Joe Brady, who played from 2009 to 2012.

In the past five seasons, Mangus spent three seasons as a running backs coach, and then was promoted to offensive coordinator in 2017. At the time, he was the second-youngest offensive coordinator across Division I

In 2018, William & Mary ranked 121st out of 124 teams at the FCS level with 13.6 points per game, and the Tribe ranked 122nd with 241.5 total yards per game.

Yikes.

Sounds like a potentially very bad hire.

Truly amazing we were able to snag such an incredible offensive mind on staff as just an analyst. All jokes aside probably recommended by Brady, but those numbers tell me that should have been a pass.

I am kinda surprised there were 3 teams that averaged less than 13.6 points per game

He's an analyst. They'll just have him stare at film and take notes on defensive tendencies.

Was coming here to post the same. For all we know this guy might have a gift for game film and such, and just wasnt a good coach. Pretty sure they wouldnt bring him on if they thought he couldnt do it.

I want an army of analysts.

Bring em all in.

If this guy gives just 1 suggestion to our coach's that helps us win a game, he's worth every penny.

Just an analyst. But the entire football staff seems to be larger than ever before and I don't want to hear excuses for not winning the west. Ed has been given everything to succeed.

He's on the staff to tell us what he did at W&M to be sure we don't incorporate anything he thinks is a good idea

He’s an analyst. He’s not running the offense. He breaks down film of opponents defenses; self scouts and crunches numbers.

You sure about that?

This is LSU's third analyst hired this offseason as the Tigers are looking to replace five others who have left the staff for other jobs.

so a team that ranked in the 100's in total offense hires a guy from a team that ranked in the 100's in total offense.
