Les Miles said earlier this month that he planned to go to the NFL to find a replacement for departed receivers coach Billy Gonzales. Seems that’s exactly what he’s done. Multiple sources “close to the football program” claim that Oakland Raiders tight end coach Adam Henry will be joining the Tigers staff by the end of the week.

LSU sports information director Michael Bonnette said the school is finishing up details on a contract.

Henry has spent the past five years in the Raiders organization, the last three working with the team’s tight ends. Prior to Oakland, he served as an assistant at McNeese State in Lake Charles, Louisiana.

Gonzales left LSU to become the offensive coordinator at Illinois.
