Former LSU star Marcus Spears gives blunt recruiting advice to Brian Kelly

A former LSU football defensive lineman sounded off on recruiting at his alma mater over the weekend.

Marcus Spears gave his take on recruiting at his former position and what head coach Brian Kelly’s approach should be to churn out high-level edge rushers.

In a video with college football media personality Adam Breneman, Spears said he talked to Kelly about how the Tigers must change their “philosophy” and target more multi-sport athletes out of high school.

Last offseason, Brian Kelly hired high-profile defensive line coach Bo Davis to head up the defensive line. The Tigers saw immediate results with Ahmad Breaux and Dominick McKinley making impacts as true freshman.
