Louisiana football analyst Parker Orgeron, son of Ed Orgeron, hired by Baylor as analyst

Former LSU football and national championship winning coach Ed Orgeron spent plenty of time around the Louisiana football program the last 11 months.

But 'Coach O' likely won't be seen around much more often as his son Parker has accepted a defensive analyst position at Baylor, ending his 11 month stint with UL. On Thursday, Parker Orgeron updated his Twitter page with his new title at Baylor: quality control coach, defensive analyst.

Since his son had been hired, Ed Orgeron spent time with first-year Cajuns coach Michael Desormeaus during the spring and was seen at multiple football practices and on the sidelines at games this past season, including UL's season finale in the Independence Bowl against Houston.

Desormeaux brought Parker on board last February as an offensive analyst, working closely with the tight ends.

The former McNeese State wide receiver who saw his football career reach an end due to concussion issues began his coaching career at his alma mater in 2019 before joining his dad at LSU in September 2020, serving as a player development intern where he stayed before taking the analyst role at Louisiana.

Parker Orgeron's exit marks the first bit of movement this offseason for the Ragin' Cajuns coaching staff as Desormeaux's full-time assistant coaches are all still with the program following a 6-7 season, the first losing season for the team in five years.
