LSU finishes towards the bottom in SEC All-Sports standings

More evidence that Alleva needs to go. LSU athletics continue to decline. On the bright side, Alabama didn't fare too well either.

This is the head of the snake tbh. No significant improvements can be made (both to athletics and the university as a whole) until he is GONE.

That is pitiful and unacceptable. It’s gotten to the point of embarrassing.

National championship in football and dead arse last in every other sport is still a huge success.

Atleast fricking A is fighting for flagship funding. That’s the only reason I’m not ready to whip out my pitchfork
None of this has to do with athletics
All F King and JBE do is fear monger. You actually think if we raised the taxes JBE wants to its going to go to LSU?
No the money is just going to line some politician's pocket
We are top 4 in athletic revenue (all self funded) and bot 10 in results

I think about this a fair amount and I'm not surprised to see these results. Our athletic dept is a far cry from what we like to think of it as being. We envision ourselves as an elite program but we have fallen off and are not at the level we were years ago. Definitely need a new, strong AD and folks on the board who actually care about LSU. Hard to believe we have people on the BOS who went to Tulane and have no affiliation to LSU whatsoever

BINGO! None of F. King and JBE's woe is me rhetoric should have anything to do with the athletic dept. F. King should thank his lucky stars that he is the president of a major university whose athletic dept is FULLY self funded. The AD isn't taking ANY money away from the academic side. Unfortunately, the athletic dept. is used as a pawn in the daily/yearly posturing of the narrative that LSU is "broke"

Seems to be plenty of poor coaches as well.

Baseball was in the finals of the CWS last season. Softball was in the CWS last season. Basketball finally returned to the postseason and obviously will be much improved this upcoming season.
Are we really that doom and gloom? Y'all that upset over tennis, golf, swimming, etc? Or is this the copout thread since its not as cool to bash on football this week with the Burrow news?

This is what has always stumped me. I feel like one of the requirements to be on the BOS should be to be an LSU alum. The fact that one of the big shot callers is a Tulane alum is unbelievable. They really think a hodgepodge of people from different schools truly have LSU's best interests in mind? I'm not suggesting a conspiracy where these people are intentionally sabotaging LSU, but it makes no sense to have shot callers who have no ties to LSU whatsoever.

Being the LSU Board of Supervisors (of which half have nothing to do with LSU) is the one giving F. King Alexander's rubber stamp approval and tbe Governor puts in his own puppets for the Board of Supervisors, F. King Alexander is far from the head of the snake. MUCH has to change before anything of significance will change.

Hosting a regional should be a foregone conclusion, hosting a super regional should be demanded, making the CWS should be the goal every season.

Are we really that doom and gloom?
