Beating dead horse.

But Skip let this happen!

LSU track and field middle of pack in SEC now!

Anyone else pissed about this?

Very disappointing decision by Skip. Pat was bringing us some championships. Wished Pat had stayed.

Any chance we could get him back?

Allowing Pat Henry to leave was a huge mistake by the university. He may have gone to A&M regardless but no effort was made to retain this college track legend.

Don't be ridiculous. LSU still has a perennial top 5 NATIONAL program in both Mens and Womens under Shaver.

I'm just hoping that Swimming and Tennis can stay competitive.

In all seriousness, they probably put Pat's salary budget towards some new carpet in a suite in Alex Box.

I'd trade every other sport's remote relevance if you could just tell me we could move basketball's importance one smidgen up the ladder. March Madness is killing me knowing once again, I gotta watch Florida, Kentucky, Vandy, and Alabama go dancing.

So, LSU Men in 2012 NCAA Indoor are #5 and A&M is #8, LSU Women in 2012 NCAA Indoor are #3 and A&M is #5. Why do favor A&M?

A little hard for me to get "pissed" about track and field. Sure, it's cool if they do well, but do you really lose sleep over them being in "the middle of the pack" in the SEC?

Yep! Absolutely one of the worst decisions Skip and the athletic department has ever made. While our current coach is good, he's not Pat Henry. Look at what Henry's done at A&M. Results speak for themselves. If the administration is fine with good but not great then there won't be any change. Sad really as we had a dynasty going (especially on the women's side) with Henry at the helm!
