BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) — LSU coach Johnny Jones says he has hired former UCLA assistant coach Korey McCray as an assistant with the Tigers.
McCray replaces assistant coach Robert Kirby who last month left to take a job on another staff.
The 34-year-old McCray has spent the past two seasons on UCLA’s staff and was with Mercer, his alma mater, during the 2007-08 season.
Jones, who is entering his second season as LSU’s head coach, says he expects McCray to help significantly with recruiting and with player development.
