The new infusion of aid comes at a make-or-break moment for Ukraine, which has faced ammo shortages and insufficient air defenses. In the two years since Russia's invasion, opposition to aiding Ukraine has grown from a fringe position to a majority view among House GOP lawmakers. Many argue the money should be spent domestically or that policy changes at the US-Mexico border should take precedence. The bill is widely expected to pass the Senate in the coming days, as it generally mirrors a $95.3 billion national security bill passed by the upper chamber in February.

LSU also did not fire Bob Diaco, who filled in as the outside linebackers coach and special teams coordinator. Diaco, a former UConn head coach and defensive coordinator under Kelly at Notre Dame, was hired in the spring as a defensive analyst. He first served as  inside linebackers coach and special teams coordinator in 2016 before becomingdefensive coordinator for his last two seasons in Lexington.

I firmly believe in Coach Kelly’s vision and look forward to getting to work. I am confident there are many exciting times ahead for the Tiger football family," House said in a statement. Part of the reason for his dismissal from the program was the unit's struggles throughout the 2023 season. The defense gave up more than 400 yards and 28 points per game on the season. Coach Brian Kelly in a statement described the decision as "difficult," before adding it was in the best interest of the program and its players.

"Not soon enough, not soon enough," he replied, before drawing more audible gasps with the line, "I am killing this dinner harder than Kristi Noem kills the puppies." The celebrity impressionist took on the persona of former President Donald Trump in a bit preceding remarks by President Joe Biden and the night's headliner, Saturday Night Live star Colin Jost. After a video showing then-President Barack Obama roasting Trump at the 2011 banquet, Friend stood in the center of the estimated 2,600 attendees doing an impressive vocal imitation of the politician. The moves will cost roughly $5.4 million combined in buyout money, according to the coaches' contracts. House also played a role in the development of future NFL All-Pro and Defensive Player of the Year Aaron Donald during his time at Pittsburgh.

Still, LSU managed to rank fourth in the SEC in passing defense (206.2 yards per game), fifth in scoring (22.5 points per game) and sixth in total defense (354.6 yards per game). The hard-line bloc has long objected to considering further Ukraine aid without legislation to secure American borders. In a nod to such demands, Johnson proposed voting on a border security bill on Saturday that largely mirrors a tough conservative proposal that House Republicans passed last year. In social media posts and TV interviews afterward, House Republicans took aim at one another — in unusually sharp terms — over the events that led up to the vote.

Individually, true freshman linebacker Harold Perkins emerged as one of the SEC’s top playmakers, earning conference defensive player of the week honors in back-to-back games in wins over Alabama and Arkansas. He earned first team All-SEC honors and was also named Freshman All-America.

It was clear, however, that his return to college football was the best next step for him and his family. He’ll be replaced by former Chiefs defensive line coach Brendan Daly in 2022, who began working with the linebackers as the defensive run-game coordinator in 2021. He left Miami after one season and joined the staff at Kentucky as an inside linebackers coach/special teams coordinator.

LSU announced Tuesday that Kansas City Chiefs linebackers coach Matt House would become the Tigers' defensive coordinator in 2022. House will finish the NFL season with the Chiefs before heading to Baton Rouge and officially starting with the Tigers. Matt House, a coach with a Super Bowl Championship on his resume, enters his second year as LSU’s defensive coordinator and inside linebackers coach in 2023. House coached linebackers for the Kansas City Chiefs for three years prior to joining Brian Kelly’s LSU staff. House spent one season as the defensive coordinator at Florida International (2015) in which his defense limited four opponents to less than 14 points and finished the season ranked 16th nationally in red zone defense.

In fact, they should utilize anything that happens to them for more material. That line is exactly where I love to exist, and I push that to the limits. People say, “But what if someone’s family that was on the bridge sees that? It existed in Texas, obviously a staple of free speech, but while L.A. And New York have virtue signaled their way into what’s right and what’s wrong. House has bounced back and forth between the NFL and college during his lengthy coaching career.

You could watch someone’s entire life change in front of your eyes. We surprised the industry when we put our tickets on sale for the YouTube theater, and they sold out in a couple of hours. I’ve spent the last three years in Austin, but I built everything, loved everything and knew everything about Los Angeles.

“Matt checks every box we’re looking for in a defensive coordinator,” Kelly said in a statement. “He’s led elite SEC defenses, recruited and developed all-conference and All-American performers at multiple positions and garnered ample experience in both the NFL and as a coordinator at multiple collegiate stops." House had been a defensive coordinator at Pittsburgh, Florida International and Kentucky before he ended up joining the Chiefs as linebackers coach in 2019.

The day after LSU allowed a school-record 706 total yards in a loss to Ole Miss — the most points the Tigers ever scored in regulation of a loss — they brought in former defensive line coach Pete Jenkins. Jancek and Jenkins shared responsibilities, and Jenkins remained with the team through the ReliaQuest Bowl. This upcoming draft will likely be a large tell into how this new defensive staff is thinking. With plenty of veteran and rookie linebackers alike, that group may see an overhaul under House. A linebackers coach does not make or break a team, but the way the Jags do things on defense will certainly look different in 2024.

Daniels didn’t play in the ReliaQuest Bowl on Monday, and LSU was forced to come back from an early 14-0 deficit, needing a late touchdown to secure a win over Wisconsin. Other issues included missed tackles, bad pursuit angles and run fits. The problems manifested themselves the most on third down as opponents converted 44.83% of the time, which ranked 117th nationally. House will be owed $3.69 million after he signed a one-year extension last January. He had two years left on a deal that made him the fifth-highest paid assistant in the country this fall. House would have made $2 million next season and $2.1 in the final year of his contract.
