re: Some perspective from an Old Tiger

Scott?

_______

I did not mention Scott Woodward in my perspective, as it was starting to run pretty long as a post. However, I feel so much better with him at the helm. I was never an Alleva fan, and wondered how in the world he even got the LSU job after the Duke lacrosse massacre. ‘

It is nice to see an AD run circles around the prognosticators, and I fully expect that he will continue to improve our overall situation. That being said, he needs to make sure that we, in the name of compliance, don’t continue to overly handicap ourselves. We cant afford to give everyone else a 20 yard head start in the 100 yard dash, with less demanding compliance.

Scott also needs to work on the game day experience. We will have some magic happening on the field, and it would be nice for game day and concessions and the like to match that excellence. Who knows- you might even keep a full stadium for the whole game.

Finally, Scott and BDK need to work big time on NIL and have a process in place that keeps us competitive. If we don’t have the correct resources in place, then get them. This state and our culture is so unique, it seems like NIL could be a real advantage for us. It doesn’t feel that way right now, but I’m confident things will improve with these guys running the show.
