So wait...it has improved...and considering the fact you have programs like Florida, Georgia, Alabama who are dominant in gymnastics...thats not that bad at all

Our damn water polo and lacross teams need to step it up. And the frisbee gold team....don't even get me started on them. Not even close to sec caliber. Idk what Joe A was thinking hiring ole what's his name to coach these groups of morons. Our athletic programs are certainly the laughing stock of the sec....he needs to go.
Oh and fire les miles and Javi while we are at it.

You serious clark? Name every single gymnastics team that has ever won a national championship. If you name more then 4 you're wrong, 2 of those are in the SEC. Its hard to win the SEC in that situation. But yea DD is terrible, lets just ignore the fact that she has made the super six (equivalent to the final 4) twice and on the verge of doing it again as well as several individual national champions in the last 5 years. Lets fire a basketball coach that makes the final four twice because he didn't win the conference.

there are only 7 teams in the conf, there were 5 in 90's then 6, now 7 (actually I think Missouri makes 8 now, not sure if this counts this year). So actually, the Gym program vs SEC has NOT improved, and ALL I am saying for all these sports, wg,wt,mg,mt etc. is SEC, NOT national champs, how about an sec title every 10 years or so???too much to ask from half your sports?
serioulsy, is it too much for each sport to win an sec title every 10 years? yes or no...

Once again you still are showing your arse in gymnastics knowledge. Not only is the scoring formula the most rigged and controversial of all the SEC sports, the team has made the NCAA's on the regular.

The sports that matter, i.e. make us money, are absolutely killing it right now and only improving.
Gymnastics being mediocre and very slowly getting better is OK with me as long as its not getting worse.

Alabama just won their 28th REGIONAL title in 31 years, which is a little harder to do then winning the SEC. With Bama and Georgia in our conference, we really don't have a shot at winning the SEC.

Not sure what "turned" for me and know others were anti Joe from start. I supported him and met him once and seems like a nice guy, smart, and does a lot of good things, but the list of "not good" is IMHO too long. So, what are possible exit ideas- doubt he can get fired anytime soon, what can we expect as far as chances he retires or is hired away? Most importantly, I do think we have two GREAT possible ADs on campus in Verge and Herb,
My list of "bad," in no order- NOT strong enough in SEC office as far as fball sch etc., not making effort to win in "minor sports" at all, not supporting major sports as he should, not a strong face for lsu sports, not doing any cleaning up of dead wood in AD, fund raising lousy (I hear he is/is not good with TAF, not sure), "just does not fit" I relaize this last one may get me flamed...
holy effin poop, I hope this guy isn't serious

You just aren't smart, are you?

Gymnastic is 3rd in the SEC and 6th in the nation. If you can't be happy with that you'll never be happy with any AD at LSU unless every sport wins the SEC.

fully nine of our "minor sports" (about half) have not won an SEC title in 15+ years, most much longer and he has made only two changes in them. Jury out on all his hires, not saying they are "bad" but while WB and MB had better than expected years, neither is where they need to be yet..time will tell...

Wow, just when you think the rant couldn't get any dumber. . .
1) Who gives a flying frick about non-revenue "minor sports"? Answer: The kids that play them and parents of said kids.
I say fire Mainieri. . . should have never lost those 2 games!
This shite is just dumb!
