She DID get the job after Wickes retired.

She was hired as "Director of Bands." Then the Athletic Dept/School of Music decided to restructure the Band Dept. They split the band department into a "Symphonic" half and an "Athletic" half. They created a "Director of Athletic Bands" and "Director of Symphonic Bands." Moorhouse wanted to do both and that created a problem, so she wound up resigning her position and took a position at the University of Illinois during the summer of 2011, right before football season. They had no other choice but to promote Roy King into the "Director of Athletic Bands" position because the season was just about to start.

She was actually named "Director of Tiger Band".

Linda had been doing Frank's job as director of Tiger Band for years before he retired. So there was nothing special about her being named director of tiger band.

Roy King was named Director of Athletic Bands when he was promoted.

Linda Moorhouse should have gotten Frank's job as Director of Everything at LSU.

linda is not a nice person but, she paid her dues and probably deserved the head title.

I sat 8 rows up on the east side and the horns sounded great, about as good as ever and definitely better than auburn. however, the show creativity has taken a step back, at least in the general effect dept.

like most people, i'm getting weary of the recorded music. keep that in the pros. I would like to hear more tb during the game.
