Not LSU. I attended 40 years ago and it was evident even then that LSU was a conservative school.

1. Landry is going to protect his state institutions especially if there's economic repercussions. LSU getting expelled from the SEC would hurt the state.

2. LSU Football is on another level of "sacred" in this state compared to most state's football programs. He is also up for re-election in 2027. This is a no brainer to score some political points.

3. It seems like Landry has taken on "projects" for each of his state institutions. In Lafayette, he is really pushing hard for a relationship between UL(L) and SpaceX since it'll be the closest 4 year school to the launch site plus the area will be directly affected by SpaceX's arrival. At LSU, he got his new President and is now going all in on athletics to try to use it as a catalyst to upgrade the rest of the school. In North Louisiana, he is pushing the relationship of ULM/La Tech and META.

Really is crazy how many on here are still bashing Landry. Without him, Brian Kelly would still be your head coach (or worse Scott Woodward would have been here to replace Kelly with an equally misplaced coach), Matt McMahon would be your basketball coach, and Scott Woodward would be you AD (see above).

Whether you like his politics or not, he has made LSU athletics better in the last 12 months.

That’s what some LSU pundits are saying, it’s all about his billionaire meeting

Maybe the idiots in the SEC office need to read Louisiana law. The governor appoints basically everyone in charge of universities. Therefore, the governor runs the show.

And the Speaker of the US House, as well as our two Senators. That Act to Protect College Sports won't go anywhere w/o their support, The SEC lib members better be careful!

One thing is clear. Finebaum is a racist in saying that Verge is a puppet.

Rousse is Landry’s hand picked president. If you think he won’t do what Landry wants, you’re fooling yourself.
