Translation: Verge Ausberry isn’t officially the permanent AD, but he’s in charge for now and fully empowered to handle the coaching hire.

Why did he use the modifier "acting"? Curious. No?

The Acting, But Not Permanent, But Also Not Interim AD. That's going to be tough to fit on an email signature

Acting and actually are….. two different things. Just get a coach that’s worth all of this shite and deal with the BS as it comes.

The fans and LSU media arent doing LSU any favors.

No one wants to stick up for the school?

Our own fans want to pile on with the rest of the country while were at a critical moment in a coaching search?

Yall are weak af

Everyone from AD on up needs to just shut up and say “no comment” and stay off the radio.

So since Rousse commented this morning no one has broken down the semantics of this issue to him yet?

Acting is like the academic version of interim except I guess it’s interim +

I have seen this all the time…

I guess in the academic world when they are the “acting president” they can actually make legit decisions to further a university rather than waiting on everyone else

So in this sense I guess verge negotiate on LSUs behalf can pick a coach and get him hired without all the hassle

So like the interim AD but in charge of the search, which they already said last week, so why would you add more cloudiness to the situation by saying I'm removing the interim title?

Thanks Chicken.

But everyone lose their minds over semantics, including our own Benedict Arnold local media.

my guess is that "interim" suggests someone without any power, and "acting" shows more power?

not sure...the timing all sucks...it is not often you have to replace a head football coach and AD at same time.

Obviously Rousse is not a seasoned politician.
