Tim Brando in absolute shambles



What we know about LSU potentially changing Dale Brown Court name, adding Sue Gunter


quote:

The board voted to name the Pete Maravich Assembly Center court after Dale Brown, the winningest coach in LSU men's basketball history, by a vote of 12-3 in September 2021. Brown was then honored with the distinction at the LSU game vs. Kentucky in January 2022.


quote:

The court naming process at LSU

At LSU, in order for an athletic facility to be named after a coach, a three-step process is followed, according to the LSU Hall of Fame Selection Committee constitution and bylaws.

1.A recommendation is sent to the athletic director before the nominee is recommended to the Hall of Fame Committee.
2. The Hall of Fame Committee votes to unanimously support the nominee.
3. The LSU Athletics Council and the LSU board then approve the nominee.


quote:

However, Angers says Brown's nomination to the LSU board did not go through that process. Instead, Angers – who was instrumental in getting Brown's name on the court in 2021 – said that he bypassed the Hall of Fame committee to get Brown's name voted on by the LSU Board of Supervisors. "I went over their heads," Angers said. "I went to (LSU board member) Glenn Armentor and I said, 'Look, the board of supervisors is the ultimate authority at LSU. And these people underneath y'all, they are essentially sabotaging a recommendation that should be made because Dale Brown is actually a national hero.' "

According to women no means no, no matter how many times you ask, except when it’s something they’re asking for.

Strip the name it has now and leave it unnamed until a NC is won

Sue Gunter court is laughable after the run we will see with Mulkey.

As long as we're correcting basketball related mistakes from last year, can we revisit the decision to fire Will Wade and hire Matt McMahon? We chose...poorly.

Interesting. It looks like Dale's name will be on there first. Should they just go ahead and reverse that now and make it Sue Gunter/Dale Brown court, or is it better to wait another year to do that?

I kid, I kid. As others have stated, the product on the court is more important than this stuff. Don't care if they add Gunter's name, don't care if they leave Gunter's name off, don't care if Brando has a heart attack.

So sad that either one of those losers are getting the court named after them. Neither one deserve it. Hell, Dale fricked up the basketball program for years.

Jordy said yesterday that they did not follow the protocol correctly when they voted last year. I can’t wait to see Tim Brando lose his shite when they vote to add Sue Gunter’s name along with Dale Brown lol. What a shite show

I've still not heard any reason this proposed name change would be a disgrace to Dale Brown.

They skipped out the unanimous vote needed from the Hall of Fame committee because they knew they’d never get Brown through that and went, instead, straight to the Board of Supervisors.

thank goodness they have their focus prioritized. We lost last night for the 11th time in a row, BUT rest assured, the court will have a dual name.

Excuse me?

The more comes out about about this, the more obvious it is the Brown people are not only delusional but were also manipulating the process even more than they’re accusing others of doing now.
