Landry’s grand standing problem with Woodward was signing BK to a huge guranteed contract

So

We sign LK to a huge guranteed contract . He did nothing besides grandstand like a jackass

“LSU will be lucky to get a G5 coach after Landry’s comments”

Then we hired Kiffin

No, he wasn’t. He was the biggest clown at the circus.

Both this:

And in what other coaching search would you define it normal for a governor to be involved. If bama had the governor involved in their coaching search you'd see it as weird.

I’m not sure any governor needs to get involved like Landry did, but the end result was the right one. Kelly had to go, and so did Woodward.

Scott Woodward didn’t want to fire Kelly even after that horrific A&M loss. It had to be done.

Why??? Bc u hate black leaders??? AD Ausberry pulled off the greatest hire in CFB history since Mal Moore in Tuscaloosa did in 2007. In 20 years from now u will see exactly why when Kiffin is in his 70’s announcing retirement from LSU as the greatest coach of all time. Get ready for the greatest dynasty run of all time tiger fans!!! What got taken from us after 2004 and into enemy territory in 2007 is justice being served back to us now as the era that we were wrongfully robbed from. Geaux Tigers

The governor is a fricking idiot. Just because the outcome was correct doesnt mean the process was a good one.

A good leader gets shite done behind the scenes instead of being a Napoleonic attention whore.

This is why y’all don’t deserve to be LSU fans. Y’all so stingy in Louisiana y’all won’t donate any money to the most important thing in life which is LSU’s football program for NIL. How bout this? Instead of having kids and spending all your money on them be child free and enjoy LSU being great. Louisiana is a great state due to its simplicity, elite high school football talent, LSU, New Orleans Saints and Pelicans, and low cost of living. What gets better than that? Oh not to mention incredible environments to go to high school in NOLA like St Augustine and Edna Karr. I checked out a neighborhood close to St Augustine and I fell in love with the beautiful simple homes they had there.

We owe a debt of gratitude to whoever is responsible, no way Woodward was going to hire Kiffin .

Wrong. Kelly was fired about 12 hours before Landry knew Woodward and Kelly had even met. Then he threw a fit and demanded a meeting at the governers mansion to discuss things that had already been decided.
quote:

Props to Jeff Landry for taking care of the most important thing ever in the state of Louisiana. The football program of LSU that the head coach position of this place is the #1 football job in the entire nation. Shut the hell up and be grateful for him getting the job done hiring a great AD Verge Ausberry who then hired Lane so now our 2nd chance at the Saban era in Baton Rouge can begin. Justice for 2004 has been served. Excited for this dominant era. Geaux Tigers. Get your season tickets and pack Death Valley every single game.
Landry had absolutely nothing at all to do with this.

In fact, he was very, very close to fricking the whole thing up.

Im just so confused on why or how the local media protected Woodward for so long. He wouldn't even let Brian Kelly fire Brad Davis. And really handicapped LSU in NIL initially.
