LSU football hired Bo Pelini this offseason to replace Dave Aranda as the Tigers’ defensive coordinator.

There’s a certain word that’s used often — very often — to describe new LSU football defensive coordinator Bo Pelini.

Fiery.

Anytime a story is written about Pelini, it’s inevitable that his “fiery” demeanor will be a focal point.

Pelini developed a reputation for being an intense coach during his first stint as the Tigers’ defensive coordinator from 2005-2007.

That reputation intensified during Pelini’s time as Nebraska’s head coach.
