Dear Tiger Fans,

Skip Bertman's raison d'être as AD was to usher in tradition fees and make across the board ticket price increases palatable. The powers that be needed a bulletproof messenger for such a drastic new message. Other than giving himself a bullshite deal so he could hire his buddy Smoke, he wasn't really all that hands on with our athletic department.

We once had Emmert as chancellor, Bertman as athletic director, Dan Radokovich as associate athletic director and Herb Vincent as associate athletic director .... all at one time.

This is why Emmert left, good ole baws wanted to install Skip vs do a real search.

People forget he left under a cloud around his continuing his baseball camp as AD, they made up some bs fund raising position for him to save face.

We have come full circle, political hacks leading LSU, BOS meddling = mediocrity forthcoming.
