LSU has named Frank Wilson as the interim head coach heading into Week 10 after firing Brian Kelly. The 51-year-old Louisiana native was the associate head coach and running backs coach prior to this promotion.
This is Wilson’s second stint at LSU. He was also LSU’s associate head coach and running backs coach from 2010-15 prior to head coaching jobs at UTSA (2010-2015) and McNeese State (2020-2021). Legendary former LSU running Leonard Fournette, who played for Wilson, had a touching social media post on Monday in praise of the Tigers’ interim choice.
“Good things happen to good people. If no one else deserve it you do,” Fournette said. “Just like on this picture when you decided to take the head coaching job at UTSA. I’ll always believe in you.”
