Myth.
Rob Dowie is/was/has been a very polarizing figure within the LSU bands and the LSU School of Music. The band is not going to fail and crumble just because Rob Dowie woudn't be involved in Tiger Band next year.
I know many LSU alums who, time not an issue, would love to volunteer their 'expert' musical services to Tiger Band. Though Mr. Dowie I'm sure has the best intentions, it's probably best to just let LSU SOM faculty, staff, and current 'student leaders' do their thing. As a poster has already mentioned in this thread - Tiger Band will be just fine.
...and there has been so much misinformation in these Tiger Band threads; it's been significantly laughable.

the Tiger Band staff isn't short right now when its down the de facto head director?
I just mean if he's going to be around he can probably help with general office stuff and coordinating things so its one less thing on Roy's plate in such a hectic time. Roy and the grad asses are going to need to dedicate even more time than usual to on the field issues. quote:

I'm pretty much 100% clued in.

What SOM faculty have experience with marching band? In my experience, I've found that SOM Concert/Symphonic/Wind/Performance musician types are totally clueless in marching band matters.
Ya want the womens softball coach to go be the offensive coordinator of the football team?
SOM faculty are exactly the reason LM left LSU by degrading Tiger Band down a few notches in putting the "Associate Director of Bands" title on the head TB Director, instead of the "Director of Bands" title. That's probably the reason they're having trouble getting somebody to take the job. Who wants to be the director of Tiger Band if they're only going to be the "Associate" Director of Bands?
Are any of the new grad assistants from LSU or are they coming in blind from another school?
RK should very well know if he's going to need help or not, on or off the field, and should be the one to choose whomever that help is. If he wants RD, or anybody else for that matter to help out, that should be HIS call.......
