Swim coach is out. Gone. It’s about Freaking time. Only one way from here for LSU Swimming (not Diving) and that is up.
I guess Les and Kathy’s pull at the Natanorium is finally leaving the building.

About time.

We need to bring in good coaches at the other athletic programs.

Just reviewed the SEC championships. Auburn won 15 straight from 1997 - 2012 and Florida has won the last 9 straight. Wondering who the Auburn coach was at that time and if they’re still there or available. Quite the run they had.

Update: David Marsh was the coach that got Auburn rolling but left in 2007 to do Olympic level coaching. His successor who left Texas for Auburn developed a brain tumor and an assistant took over after that. He resigned in 2018. Will be interesting to see if Woodward will spend on a new head coach for swimming.

I find it absurd they acted like Swimming was separate from Diving. The coaches were literal douches about it giving a perception they did not work well together.

It would be like Track separating from Field

The whole program needs to be contracted. Too expensive to properly build it up to LSU's standard of competitiveness

We had a decent one prior to this last coach, but the athletes complained that he worked them too hard. He made them run/swim early in the morning if he caught them drinking or breaking curfew.

Has LSU contacted Michael Phelps yet? He'd be a good fit!

Admittedly, I would not know where to start for options to replace. Would Auburn or Texas assistant coaches come this way?
