LSUDad Posted February 28, 2022 Share Posted February 28, 2022 LSU defensive staffer reportedly leaves for position in the NFL Keith Farner | 5 hours ago Brian Kelly is reportedly losing one of his defensive graduate assistants to the NFL, according to a report from Bruce Feldman, of The Athletic. Feldman reported that Asauni Rufus will join the San Francisco 49ers staff in a quality control position. He has previously worked at Nevada, Notre Dame and Vanderbilt. Rufus, a Bakersfield, California, native graduated from Nevada in 2019 as a psychology major. He was a four-year letter winner (2015-18) and three-time All-Mountain West selection (2016-18) as a defensive back with the Wolfpack. Rufus closed his career ranked third in career tackles with 340 and helped Nevada to a pair of Arizona Bowl appearances, in 2015 and 2018, according to his Vanderbilt bio. Clark Lea brought Rufus with him to Nashville. “I’ve kind of always known I wanted to be a coach after I was done playing,” Rufus told Nevada Sports Network of getting into coaching in 2019. “I didn’t know when it’d be, but I definitely wanted to coach. I loved coaching even when I was playing. I tried to always help the guys out. It’s a good feeling being able to help somebody achieve their goals.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSUDad Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 Strong Core Values Help LSU Receivers Coach Cortez Hankton Create Special Bond With Tigers Hankton talks about his "why" for coaching and what he's learned about championship building GLEN WEST 3 HOURS AGO Every coach always has their "why" when it comes to getting into the coaching profession. The hours are long as recruiting trips, time at the office, practice, relationship building and the games all cut into family time. For LSU receivers coach Cortez Hankton, he discovered his "why" fairly early on in his career as wanting to help other young players like himself fulfill their dreams. Hankton grew up in inner city New Orleans and saw his parents work extremely hard to get him out of that environment, setting the blueprint for Hankton in how hard he wanted to work. Hankton didn't start playing competitive football until his junior year of high school at St. Augustine and took a little longer for him to develop as a player. Every step of the way from his days at Texas Southern to walking in as an undrafted free agent with the Jacksonville Jaguars, Hankton embraced every opportunity.

Hatchertiger Posted March 7, 2022 Share Posted March 7, 2022 (edited) So this had to have occurred before 2015 when FW left LSU and its only making it into this suit 7 years after it occurred? Why wasn't this included in the original law suit? I'm assuming she remembered the alleged incident when she filed it. Sounds suspicious to me.

Clavo was a part of the LSU football program for the team’s national championship season, along with helping in scouting and reporting before and after the championship, and many know that LSU recruits at the highest level in college football. Clavo will be an offensive recruiting assistant at Michigan State. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
