The LSU football team will have no more coaching vacancies when it kicks off spring practice Friday.
Giants assistant special teams coach Thomas McGaughey has accepted the position as LSU special teams coordinator.
The hire fills the void left when Joe Robinson departed in February to be the North Carolina defensive line coach.
McGaughey, 37, will also be an LSU defensive line coach.
He has special teams coaching experience spanning the college and professional levels.
McGaughey was special teams coordinator at the University of Houston, his alma mater, from 2003 to 2004. He was also a special teams assistant coach with the Kansas City Chiefs in 2002 and the Denver Broncos from 2005 to 2006 before taking a Giants position in 2007.
McGaughey was a Houston safety from 1991 to 1995, and a member of the Philadelphia Eagles (1996) and NFL Europe’s Barcelona Dragons (1997) before starting his coaching career.
