You are asking people to ignore political influence that is destroying a university because your political background matches the political influence that is destroying the university. You are the most political person in this thread.
WTF are you talking about?? the LSU decline and bankrupting of the state started long ago. At least with Jindal if not before that. Now it's all blamed on 'woke' people and liberals because they're the Boogeyman for your political affiliation.

If you really want change, then it's very simple. Don't go to any games.
Yall have fun at the new Corporate Tiger Stadium. The Coliseum will be full of Pump Lumps, MA's, (Mediocrity Acceptors) Wine & Cheesers and Corporate Give Away's this week.
They'll be drunk and be back on here after the game with the "We're Back" BS after the Tigers beat the hell out of McNeese.
As an Alum, I'm in with the OP. I want no part of it and will not set foot in that stadium until there's a regime change........

Just a thought!
Can you imagine, after 2030 the plan is to have all electric powered vehicles. No fossil fuels available.
Then another disaster, hurricane, blizzard, or fire.
No power for vehicles.

I was there for Tdecline. It was caused by two factors:
1. School of music greed
2. School of music arrogance
See, the school of music has open and obvious contempt for the tiger band, even going so far as to schedule critical path required courses for music majors during Tiger Band rehearsals in order to strongarm music majors into quitting. They’re arrogant and see the Tiger Band as something for the uncultured swine, but the head of the Tiger Band was traditionally the head of all of the bands at the university. So, when Linda Moorhouse, a competent second in command (despite rumors that she slept her way into that position), demanded to be named the head of all the bands when her superior retired, the school of music rebuffed her, so she went elsewhere to a university that would allow her to run the marching band and concert bands. So, they turned to the third in command, Roy King, to run the tiger band because he was willing to accept that position without being given control of the concert bands other than his own, which was the lowest tiered concert band in the university. They then brought in someone more “like minded” to run the concert side of things. Roy was the last guy you’d want running a disciplined unit. He wasn’t completely incompetent, but quality noticeably declined noticeably under his reign.
The Tiger Band is a huge source for donations for the university because it publicly faces the customers. It’s one of its biggest symbols. The school of music made a fatal error when they split management of the Tiger Band off from the director of bands because the money donated to the Tiger Band stayed with the tiger band and didn’t trickle to the rest of the school of music. They wanted that money. In addition, Roy King had a pool of money from which to offer scholarships to potential tiger band musicians, but was requiring them to play in Roy Band (the third band) in order to maintain them. The school of music wanted to be able to siphon those donations and take back control of those scholarships so they created a false scandal (which was really unnecessary as Roy was a complete perv. They could have easily found evidence of sexual assault allegations to fire him for cause) based around money disappearing from a desk and fired Roy for cause triggering a lawsuit which he won. The school of music, however, promoted Roy’s #2 Llinas, but with the condition that the school of music had control of the money donated to Tiger Band. Llinas was a major improvement over Roy, but quickly left for greener pastures where the director of the athletic band was also the director of concert bands (sound familiar?). The current director is alright, but has so much less power and influence that it’s difficult to attract the best talent especially with the school of music siphoning resources and scholarships, attempting to take stipends away from the color guard and golden girls, and the athletic department’s indifference regarding funding pep band trips to away games.
The school of music vs the Tiger Band is just another example of how the university is run in a “penny wise pound foolish” manner while holding abject contempt for its traditions and donors to its own detriment.

She broke into his apartment, got in his shower, grabbed his dick, and shoved a finger up his arse. He pushed her, ran off to call the police. She claimed rape. He got arrested.
I tried to get the victim to go to the media and name names. I begged him to sue. He begged me not to because he just wanted to put the whole thing behind him. He was at LSU thanks to the G.I. Bill. He’s an Iraq War veteran with multiple purple hearts. The university treated him like a monster because he was a white veteran and she was a black student in STEM.
All this went down like 2 years ago. All the involved folks who were employed with the university are still there. The female student now works for the university.

Read my other posts on the subject. I go into a lot of detail while withholding names. You can probably figure out who all these people are just based on the information I put out.

Honestly it's like the perfect storm for LSU athletics or more so the LSU football program. You had all the loss of revenue last year due to covid, you alienate the majority of your fanbase and ticket holders with both the BLM woke shite and then the mandatory vaccinations or negative tests. Then to top it off you have a dog shite head coach that looks to have the football program on the decline that also has a 21 million dollar buyout.
Bad times right now. The attendance is about to be terrible.

It’s not like they want the fans to go anyway.

A lot of people haven't realized how true this is and how bad things could become really, really, quickly.
The university is fighting wars on multiple fronts. Almost all of it is self inflicted. They have alienated a significant portion of its fan base due to COVID protocols. It has alienated another portion of its fan base due to wokeness. It is fighting scandals within the Athletic Department. Most importantly, those in charge who support the leftist agenda care more about that agenda than they do the well being of the school and certainly athletics, so every decision will be towards creating more of a divide vs. solving these issues.
You see it on this very board with fans who care more about winning the COVID argument than they do the damage it is doing to the university.
Honestly, I think it's past the point of no return.
Let me ask you a question since you put all these political issues in your post. Do you think Coach O going on Fox News in August 2020 3 months before the Presidential election and endorsing Then President Trump was a good move. Could that have been viewed as Political by a segment of the LSU fan base and LSU populace who did not support Trump?
For the record, I voted against Hillary in 2016 and Biden in 2020. Note, I said who I voted against as I generally despise all Politicians. Last President I was actually for was President Reagan.

Bama had BLM marches. Colleges across the country are changing entrance rules due to covid. It's not just LSU and plenty of them have successful football programs still.
We were healing from the BLM bull shite. Then acid was thrown in the wound with the hiring of our CRT president by our dumbass BOS. Then our CRT president wants to force vaccinations on a population of people with zero risk based on an FDA bait and switch approval. Then our CRT president implements the most strict game day COVID protocols in the SEC.
We are the laughingstock. LSU is an embarrassment.
Your LSU leadership fricking hates its fanbase. They have full contempt for the people they call once a month looking for a handout.
The answer is no from me until LSU leadership stops picking fights with its fanbase.

You have to post that video because I don’t remember O endorsing Trump. I just remember him being appreciative of their visit and how much of a gracious host Trump was to him and the team.
