Sounds like it's happening. Been whispered about for a few weeks now that it would be a possibility. Whispers getting louder now.

I want Tate to stay at LSU. Losing him would be a big loss.

Our governor likes to meddle
The writing was on the wall
Believe what you want but Tate has done a good job
Same old political LSU
Let's hope it doesn't get in the way of athletics as it relates to this board but when your governor calls out Mulkey despite a natty it's not good for LSU

Me, too.

If Pres Tate leaves I have no doubt a big part of his reason for leaving is he's sick and tired of having to deal with Gov Jeff Landry.

Landry hates LSU and he's made it clear he wants to bring down LSU and build up USL which is his alma mater.

Wouldn’t be so sure. Id bet he’s on the list to be the next university president.

The thought of Jeff Landry selecting Tate's successor is just awful. Its hard enough attracting talented staff and faculty to the state with him just serving as governor, but his takes it up several notches...

At the time of Tate's hire, he did not seem like a good fit at LSU and the only reason why was some type of writings about STEM education that bordered on DEI policies or something to that effect.

But now Tate seems to be a good ambassador for LSU and has done fine job.

This website melted hard about Tate and one of the first things he did was allow frats back on the parade grounds

This is a compromise. The Good Ol Boys (the gov and LA republicans) have been hammering on him since Landry swore in last year. They have forced out some of Tate's allies.

Remember the dumb shite with the tiger? that was an attempt to get Tate to make a misstep.
