Frank Wilson is on his second stint with the Tigers and has deep ties to Louisiana football. The New Orleans native has been coaching for nearly 30 years and has been called the godfather of recruiting.

Coach J.T. is confident that Wilson gives the Tigers the best chance to finish the 2025 regular season on a high note

NEW ORLEANS — Frank Wilson is now the interim head coach of LSU Football. That's a new name to some, but for many around LSU and New Orleans, this has been a long time coming.

If LSU athletic director Scott Woodward and boosters and even the governor want to take a big swing like they did with Kelly, the first call should be to Kiffin. That, in turn, would drive up his price in a three-team bidding war between UF, Ole Miss and LSU.

The Brian Kelly era in Baton Rouge has come to an end, which means the LSU next head coach odds are heating up. Kelly was let go following a humbling 49-25 home loss to No. 3 Texas A&M, which all but ended the Tigers' chances of sneaking into a conference title game or, beyond that, the College Football Playoff.

On the flip side, Woodward once nailed the hire of Chris Petersen at Washington. At LSU, he's hired women's basketball coach Kim Mulkey and baseball coach Jay Johnson. They won national championships.

Ole Miss Rebels head coach Lane Kiffin set the record straight with a bold statement as his name emerges as a strong candidate to take over at the helm of the Florida Gators or LSU Tigers.
