Feels Like Dr. Wade Rousse Understands How Things Should Be

He has thoroughly impressed me every time he speaks and of course in particular with the hirings of Kiffin and Wade. He seems so at ease and relaxed and I think that only further helps him be the best president he can be for LSU.

He has fully embraced athletics and turned it into the cornerstone of the university. Saying that we will turn LSU into an elite institution with athletics leading the way as the face of the university. It’s smart and it’s working. LSU’s brand is building rapidly, as seen by the huge numbers of out of state students coming into LSU

Yep, refreshing for someone in academia to be so logical as it relates to the importance of athletics to the University

Jeff Landry generally sucks but he’s done right by LSU. I’ll give him credit for that. Now quit pandering to POS plaintiff asswipes please.

That started under Tate. Rousse has only been at lsu for 4 of months.

Which president decided to add back min standard test scores for admission instead of :a wholestic approach"

The comment he made about athletics being the ignition of a University of whatever wordage he used is so smart and correct.

I was not at all impressed with Rousse, but I was with WW.

I’m not quite sure of all the Politics and nuances of the Presidents job obviously, but understanding how important sports are for the school and how that can help the school and education within can go hand in hand and he has embraced it.
We lucked out because some Presidents miss the boat on how to tie it together.

I would think the "holistic" approach would have been helpful for you though right?

Wade-O is the Man. Good Receiver back in High School.
Posted on 3/30/26 at 5:22 pm to LSU_postman
That hasn’t even started yet. That will start in 2028.

In a way, he reminds me of Mark Emmert. Maybe a Cajun Mark Emmert.

Sounds like Wade fired Woodward
Posted on 3/30/26 at 8:10 pm to mjv1011
I just watched his introduction of Wade from today, and I’m supremely impressed by him.
Posted on 3/30/26 at 8:36 pm to mjv1011
That's why I've been continuously posting that he and LSUBOS Chairman Lee Mallet are the actual AD's at LSU.
VA is just the public figurehead that announces what Rousse and Mallet get done behind the scenes.............

This is the answer. Emmert brought in Saban and pushed this model with Saban which Saban took and installed at bama doing wonders them
