This is clownish behavior and not being a statesman.
He is trying to be like Senator Kennedy and even he, at times, comes across as trying too hard to have a clever quip.

Okay relax. You sound like people with TDS. I don’t even like Landry but yall are so dramatic

Is he a jackass, yes. Irrefutable damage? Businesses are actually coming to Louisiana and the next president if its the McNeese guy will be a home run

Landry said he represents his constituency, but LSU's constituency is more than Louisiana. A lot of alumni live out of state and our voices must be heard too. I don't want the USL governor to pick our coach.

He is an attention whore and not smart
Enough to know what he doesn't know.

The BOS that also approved the 10 year Kelly contract with a Mega Buy Out need to be removed from the board as well!

People will bitch no matter what, I thought they wanted to get rid of Woodward now since Landry wants to get rid of Woodward you don't want to get rid of Woodward? Make it make sense?


Apparently Louisiana and this board is filled to the rim with a bunch of soy boys with reading comprehension and little understanding of how a state funded institution works. Oh and conservatives bad and all need to die.

Even if he thought these things just dont say it publicly. He's going to make it that much harder to find anyone decent. There has to be some people with the balls enough to say hey reel this back a bit. The boosters have to speak up on this one.

If morons like you are against it then I am for it. He never said he is picking the next head coach. He will pick a board that will perform the search and hiring process. I’m sure he will be involved but that board / people putting up millions of dollars to get all this done will have the most say.

In all seriousness, he inserted himself into LSU, where he doesn’t belong, and got us Omar. What a joke.

Funny the boy from St Martinville is going to get in a pissing match with the boy from New Iberia....my money is on the New Iberia Super Agent! He represents every coach that LSU has on their wish list! Probably gonna just broker better deals out of the schools where they are coaching now and send Jeff a XMAS card!

Skip Bertman has spoken many times about the search committee that found Les Miles.

Emmeritte was the final decision maker on Saban, but it was a search commitee.

That is basically how all of higher education works on the majority of hires. What Woodward has done the past few hires is out of the norm.

This whole thing is stupid. Woodward made a bad hire but he shouldn't be fired. And now politics are involved and they should not be in sports. shite I wouldn't trust any Government to handle a budget of a sports program it would just go in debt like the Government.

You're the moron if you think Landry won't have his hand in the cookie jar on this decision. What he says and does are two different things, so I'm very leery of him... and I'm a republican

He wants to be the “Kingfish” so bad, unfortunately he is more the “Choupique”
