Well said 
It’s like hiring a guy to wash your vehicles that’s spent years in jail for repeated auto theft and then acting surprised when he steals your car.

I’m going to leave it at this bc I’m not going to sit here for an hour arguing with you, my actual point is:
1- Most of you on here have zero understanding of what goes into running a University system and are making huge assumptions about what he wouldn’t or wouldn’t do in that role without actually listening to what he says about the subject.
2- This culture we have in this country of immediate ostracizing anyone and everyone on the opposing political sports team is absurd. The left is more culpable of this for the most part but y’all are doing the exact same thing here.
I agree 100% politics shouldnt be considered for drs, electricians, etc etc, but for a position in which politics actually plays a part, its kinda important

CRT in schools is a major issue

He’s talking right now about how LSU athletics is critically important to promoting the university and that competing for and winning national championships is proven to be the driver for schools improving their academic standing.
Of course Tigerdroppings wants nothing to do with him

I haven't paid attention to any of this and know nothing about this Tate guy. Why are so many people triggered?

So he interviews well?

sometimes people say things in interviews they think that the interviewer wants to hear so the interviewer will react favorably to the candidate

Three words. Critical Race Theory.

So him talking about athletics is more important as a university president than the research he has done?
You understand how ridiculous that sounds right?

I refuse to believe you’re this unaware. More likely you’re in agreement with the principles of CRT, but attempt to downplay them because you know that won’t play well.
That’s exactly what it is. I still can’t get him to answer if David Duke’s politics would immediately disqualify him from consideration for this position. I wonder why that is.

That’s fair, but his main focus has been generating funding for research. Actual scientific research. Not sociology.
Henderson is my choice, FWIW.

I can’t imagine he would be inconsistent and would gladly welcome him so long as he’s a big sports fan

This is the 2nd time in just a few days you’ve shown that you think a university president supporting the school’s sports teams is more important than supporting an ideology that automatically makes decisions about people based solely on the color of their skin.
And you have the nerve to say other people don’t understand what goes into running a university.

Just as long as the woke crap stops, or I’ll be canceling everything.....

Really hoping for the weather guy.
They (LSUBOS) fixin to make matters much worse in regards to the "Get Woke.....Go Broke" situation.
The Little Darlings are about to become much more broke because you simply don't bite the hand that feeds you. (This will trickle all the way down to Athletics as well.)

Anyone who comes even close to claiming math is racist or supporting critical race theory doesn't need to be running a university, period. That's not political.

If it’s Tate, the woke stuff of last year will seem like a Barry Goldwater lecture compared to what comes under Tate’s tenure.
