SUMMARY: After a disappointing 3-9 season, Southern Miss fired defensive coordinator Dan O’Brien, defensive line coach Brandon Lacy, and tight ends coach Cayden Cochran, as reported by ESPN’s Adam Rittenberg. As the team had the worst scoring defense in the Sun Belt, letting in an average of 35.8 points per game, these changes are part of a restructure by head coach Will Hall, who is set to stay despite holding a 13-23 record.
