Holds the bags open when boosters fill them up with $$$$. Then hands them off to bagmen with detailed instructions on delivery!!

Austin was an asset to LSU and was part of delivering 3 top 5 classes while at LSU. I thank him for his service and wish him well. Coach Kelly wants his guys & that's understandable.

Robber DeNiro•53 months

You don't get rid of assets, I think y'all overrating this guy.

He had no expectation of what the job could and would become when he took it?

That's not good.

Seriously, is this all you say. You bitched and moaned about our shot record and what to keep the same people? Just go comment on quidditch or something.

Well if Austin Thomas was so great as a “General Manager” how the fuk does LSU have so damn many roster problems? How do we have so many kids with grade issues? How do we have such a morale problem? Brian Kelly is running off a bunch of overpaid “do nothings”. LSU had the worst staff imaginable and that includes Thomas who was nothing but a freeloader. The situation with LSU’s Roster deserves all the firings that have happened.
