Throwing this out as food for thought:
How much of what we're seeing right now out of the present administration is sheer contempt for LSU customs/culture and wanting to change things to something THEY think is acceptable?
Remember Mark Emmert..."Michigan academics with Louisiana culture..." this bunch is more like "community college academics and SJW culture"
This bunch seems to hold Louisiana and it's culture in contempt and from F. King on down through who I will now call Dean Wormer (Fuentes-Martin) look like they are doing their best to destroy LSU gameday and stadium culture? And Joe Alleva's lack of logistical talent in making gameday more and more unpleasant for the fanbase aids them in attaining their objective...
Everything from parking to canned music in the stadium...
political types in Louisiana and Baton Rouge better be paying attention...how much tax revenue will you be losing and will you ever be able to get it built back up even if you stop the present sucking chest wound?
thoughts?

Deserves more time. A very good insight.

I posted a thread similar concerns the other day, but it was more about the complacent style of Louisiana politics. In Lafayette, we just hired a new AD who came from the University of Missouri and played a huge internal role in getting Mizzou into the SEC a few years ago. This was the first AD that we hired from the "outside" since Terry Don Phillips back in the 1980s...who ended up as the AD at Clemson. We also have the executive director of the RCAF who worked at Indiana University for a few years before coming here. Sometimes, it is good to bring in some fresh new ideas from other places because when you hire within, you recycle ideas.
At the same time, culture is something that is NEVER meant to be played with especially in a place like Louisiana. In Lafayette, we are trying to grow our brand name into something bigger. At LSU, it's already there. I don't think it's as much as them trying to push an agenda as it is just them trying to help when they're ignorant on the subject matter. Athletics is a marketing tool for universities. If less is more at a place like LSU games, then they need to keep it that way.
