LSU Adds Aman Anand as Special Teams Coordinator

LSU football has hired Aman Anand as its new special teams coordinator, following the departure of Slade Nagle to Houston. Anand comes from Grambling State, where he coordinated special teams and achieved impressive metrics, including leading the SWAC in kickoff and punt returns. His coaching experience includes notable positions at Baylor and Penn State, where he contributed to strong special teams units and mentored future NFL players. Brian Kelly, LSU's head coach, continues to restructure the coaching staff, with additional vacancies remaining, including the tight ends coach position. Anand's appointment is part of Kelly's commitment to enhancing LSU's performance in special teams, an area of focus for the upcoming season. The coaching staff changes reflect a broader trend in college football of leveraging talent from the NCAA Transfer Portal and making strategic hires.
