BATON ROUGE – There are still some vacancies on Brian Kelly’s LSU football coaching staff, but it looks like he’s found his next special teams coordinator.
Per FootballScoop.com, Aman Anand is leaving that role at Grambling State to assume the same position on LSU’s coaching staff.
Anand was with Grambling for one season under first-year coach Mickey Joseph. He also has spent time at Texas Southern as well as three years at Baylor, where he served as the assistant special teams coordinator. Anand has also coached at Penn State.
