We did pretty well under Skip. Pretty sure he hadn't been an AD before

Now Skip was the GOAT of LSU and national baseball.
But he was a compromise hire and as close to abysmal as you can get but then they hired Joe to keep Skip off the bottom.
He started the money grab fan rape that people complain about today. He halted all on campus parking and tailgating, which ruined it forever.
Skip was a terrible AD and if you don't realize that then you have your answer as to how LSU hired Joe and how you at the time thought that was a good idea. Then wound up with Ed in the end.
It was all done under the auspice of this is an arms race and we need money people not traditional fans and everyone bought in. Now they complain about what these new fans don’t do for the program, they don't stay to the end, they don't show up. You can thank Skip for starting this crap.
