Jim Nickel call in to Culotta and the fan this morning

Jim Nickel from the LSU Radio Network called in this morning and made some great points about Louisiana and the lessons learned from recent hurricanes, the way the SEC Office and Florida's Admin has handled this

I will bullet point from memory, anyone else hear the call and want to add anything go ahead

-Louisiana learned that the most important thing in preparedness is to get way ahead of the situation regardless of public outcry of "over reaction"

-state officials were fired in the wake of Katrina because people were evacuated to NORLA and there were no contingencies for Food, Water, Clothing, Showers, Bathrooms in the shelters

-He has a hard time understanding why UF is being so stubborn in recognizing the demands and hazards of continuing to hold on to the Sat, 11AM start time

-He says he believes this is the kind of situation that could make or break SEC Commissioner Greg Sankey's reputation

-He questioned why the SEC Office does not have a plan in place for this situation.

- he suggested something along the lines of .......by Wednesday before a game then a __________ level of storm + ________ certainty of impact to a game host area = Move the game to _________ location (neutral site) and kick in the contingency plan

Also Jordy made an interesting point about the equipment staff leaving tonight in the LSU Tractor Trailer at 9:30 PM and potentially arriving in Gainesville in the middle of the storm
