Letlow says she won’t seek LSU leadership job

U.S. Rep. Julia Letlow, a Republican from Northeast Louisiana whose district includes LSU, took herself out of the running Wednesday morning during an interview on “Mornings with Brian Haldane” on Talk 107.3 in Baton Rouge.
“I’ve prayed about it. I’ve decided that now is not the right time to pursue the presidency of LSU,” Letlow told Haldane.
LSU is now officially accepting applications for its top position, which will not be split despite months of speculation that the LSU Board of Supervisors would separate the president and chancellor jobs.
A listing that went up late last week on HigherEdJobs.com and other higher education job websites says the LSU president leads “as the chief executive for both the LSU System and the LSU A&M campus.”
McNeese President Wade Rousse said he will make a decision about whether he will apply for the LSU position when he returns from traveling to the Southland Conference meetings in Dallas this week. Rousse is favored for the job by LSU Board Vice Chairman Lee Mallett, who is a close ally of Gov. Jeff Landry,
Interim LSU President Matt Lee, who is also a potential candidate for the permanent job, has not yet responded to a request for comment.

The main thing that I am concerned about is that whoever it is takes sports very seriously.

She running for Bill Cassidy's spot?

They best go get that guy that is President of McNeese.

Just don't get a dumbass who would write something like this:
“Based on Will Wade’s refusal to meet with us regarding the accusations published yesterday in the media, I hereby direct you to place Coach Wade on interim suspension immediately and indefinitely, pending further investigation,"

The guy who, as Dean of the LSU Ag Center, hosted a DEI Tailgate...

I recommend Clay Higgins. He will keep the woke DEI ideology out of LSU!!

Is she even qualified for the job?

Nothing grinds my gears more than a politician who says they prayed about anything.
God may exist, but nowhere near anything political.

Of course she's qualified.

Because gov Landry has his guy
Rouse or Monday will be the hire
Everything else is a smokescreen including paying ssa consultants to do their bidding

I’m pretty sure this is her first political office, elected after her husband (that previously held the office) died quite suddenly.

This is her first political job I’m pretty sure. The only reason she took this job was because her husband died of Covid. A quick google search would do you wonders. She’s done more for our state than probably 99% of the other politicians in this state. Educate yourself before you make dumbasre comments.

These people hover around the taxpayer tit looking for a suckle long enough until they can acquire a private job with their governmental connections. This is not a new, novel concept. They are leeches.

She doesn't have the chest

That’s a relief. She was not qualified to lead LSU. It’s too bad Scalise isn’t interested. He’d be a perfect fit as LSU President.

Are you literally retarded?
Yes, you are.

As someone who was in her district and now in Johnson's district, she's much better on constituent issues. She was very helpful on some things for the local school system, even continuing to help when we were no longer in her district. With Johnson you're lucky if you can get a call back from one of his minions.
