Not letting Woodward hire the next football coach is a sensible move

Look, I’m not a fan of the Ragin Cajun and his wannabe Trump shtick.
But you can’t let Woodward overpay another “big name” fossil who’s on the downside of his career. Letting him do that is financial suicide for a school like LSU and a state like Louisiana.
Booster money needs to go to NIL and talent. Not some fricking agent looking to make a payday.

It’s not necessarily about firing Woodward as it is about him making it a public issue when he didn’t have to. Politicians dance around questions all day every day, that just makes us look unattractive imo.

Woodward can’t pay—over, under, or juuust right—anybody on his own anyway. BOS has to officially sign off on anybody and any contract. And the dudes actually footing the bill have to unofficially. I said this in another thread, but anybody who thinks Woodward went rogue and signed Kelly on his own is delusional. It took the signing off by several people more powerful than him. Remember all that talk about “alignment?”

The governor attacking LSU’s AD is not a good thing. It’s objectively a terrible thing.
Landry needs to shut the frick up and stay in his lane.

Don’t you remember how publicly involved JBE was in the last coaching search? Yeah me neither

Yeah, put in the hands of a politician. That’s much more sensible

There went the search. Go to USL to get your coach or just give the job to Wilson. When LSU loses and the stadium is empty his arse will be voted out. I may not live there but I can flat out tell you he very likely lost a family with almost 100 first cousins alone not counting their children and grandchildren that vote by pulling that shite.

JBE just publicly threatened to cancel LSU football all together.
Much better

He gave Jimbo a stupid 10 year contract. Gave Kelly a stupid 10 year contract, when he had zero fit here.
Ran off the general and replaced him with a horrible coach that has killed the basketball program.
Yea, I’d rather just let someone else make the hire.

Well, at least now we know the coach will have Louisiana ties. I don’t know of any outsider that would want to deal with this.
I can imagine if the Governor doesn’t like the contract offer, he’ll try to go public with this also. He’s basically negotiating the next coach’s contract before any formal offer is made and constraining the board financially with what they can offer.
