Former USC and Los Angeles Rams coach John Robinson has been added to the LSU coaching staff as a senior consultant to head Coach Ed Orgeron.
Robinson served as head coach at Southern Cal from 1976-1982 and then again from 1993-97 when he led the Trojans to the 1978 national title along with five Pac-10 championships. In between his two stints at Southern Cal, Robinson was the head coach of the NFL’s Los Angeles Rams, leading that franchise to the playoffs six times, including two appearances in the NFC Championship game.
“I want to welcome Coach Robinson and his wife Miss Beverly to the LSU family,” Orgeron said.
Robinson is a member of the College Football Hall of Fame. He will assist Orgeron as a consultant to daily planning of practice, personnel and game planning.
