LSU head coach Lane Kiffin is keeping a key staffer in Baton Rouge for the foreseeable future. LSU Director of Football Operations Jon Randall Belton is being promoted to Assistant General Manager according to Matt Zenitz of CBS Sports.

Randall played a pivotal role in assembling the Tigers’ last four recruiting and transfer portal classes. LSU’s last three high school signing classes have all ranked in the Top 10, including a No. 5 class in 2023, No. 7 in 2024 and No. 8 in 2025. It also signed the No. 1 transfer portal class in 2025.
