Earlier this year when it was announced Ed Orgeron wouldn’t coach beyond the season, Joe Brady’s name was brought up for what he orchestrated with the LSU offense. However, many thought he would be in line for an NFL head coaching gig.
Apparently, that is no longer the case. On Sunday, Brady was fired just a season and a half into his tenure as the offensive coordinator for the Carolina Panthers. The offense at Carolina has struggled and the move was likely made to take some of the heat off head coach Matt Rhule.
With the LSU Tigers looking to fill Brian Kelly’s new staff, could we see a return of Brady to the Bayou? Hard to say. He would likely get his pick of any offensive coordinator position at the college level.
We could soon find out just how true the report of him not being a fan of recruiting really is.
Although he signed an extension with LSU, Brady opted for the NFL. Would there be any animosity toward a potential return? It is hard to tell at this point but a storyline worth watching in the coming days.
The #Panthers fired OC Joe Brady.
