BATON ROUGE - LSU has officially announced the promotion of Joe Sloan and Cortez Hankton to co-offensive coordinators.

Both coaches will also retain their primary roles coaching quarterbacks and wide receivers respectively.

Cortez’s work with Malik and Brian to develop them into likely first round draft picks shows his expertise. He is a tremendous asset for us and will continue to lead our offense. https://t.co/pK3GOdo5ca

Sloan and Hankton were key contributors in LSU's high powered offense in the 2023 season that produced a Heisman Trophy winner, Biletnikoff finalist, and LSU was the only FBS school to have a top 10 passing and rushing offense.

Joe helped develop Jayden Daniels into a Heisman winner and is a valuable recruiter. He’s ready to continue to work and operate at an elite level. https://t.co/tCbp8RoJdR
