That’s quite the country-wide trek.

Matt Zenitz of CBS is reporting that Guidry will be the new defensive coordinator at Oregon State after a season as an analyst at LSU. The Welch, L.A., native was the defensive coordinator for Miami for two seasons prior to his return to Louisiana.

LSU’s defensive staff is expected to maintain significant continuity with the return of coordinator Blake Baker. Guidry was looking for an on-field position after a season as an analyst. Oregon State offered that.
