Maybe we'll hear "Neck" again.

The director of LSU’s Golden Band from Tigerland, Roy King, was put on paid administrative leave Wednesday morning.
King has been the athletic marching band director for five years, but he has worked in the band’s administration for 18 years. King’s attorney Jill Craft said in an interview that the decision was a “travesty.”
She said King is the target of a “witch hunt” led by LSU’s School of Music to try to control athletic funds that go toward the Tiger Band, Color Guard and Golden Girls, which are all under King’s watch.

LSU is such a fricking shite show right now. Unbelievable. I'm embarrassed to be an alum at this point.

This is true, but tiger band is also a shell of its former self so maybe this will be a good thing?

Before I read the details I was thinking "Thank God. No more Latin flair!", then I read the article

Clean house. Starting with F.King and Alleva, then R.King and that SJW bitch who doesn't want anyone to have fun tailgating.

What is a witch hunt? I've heard of people being witch hunt before, but never of an event occurring called a witch hunt. Reporters, am I right?

Other than Stephen Moret I'm starting to wonder if the rest of our administrators and leaders across the board are total morons

Didn't people on this board hate Roy King at one time?

This is getting pretty pathetic though. One thing after another.

How many fired LSU staff members has Jill Craft represented now? Seems like a lot

Jeeezz. Somebody needs to get their shite together. Starting with the CLM debacle at the end of the season, it feels like folks are scared to lead.

It's a tad hyperbolic, but how is it not jaw-dropping to you how we frick everything up these days? I mean I'm a resident positiger and even I'm just shocked at how pathetic it's gotten

Latin flare
Or Chinese flare? How about a flare gun?
The correct word is flair, meaning "a uniquely attractive quality" but I don't think most people agree with LSU's Latin flair musical selections.

Are you serious right now? solid contribution to the thread

its his own fault, you rock a mustache like that and people are going to accuse you of doing some shady shite.

Meh. I literally could not give 1/100th of a flying frick about the Band Director being put on administrative leave. Neither could anyone not associated with LSU or specifically the LSU band. Thus, no embarrassment on my end. I wish we'd fire Jones, but I'm not embarrassed to have graduated from LSU because we didn't.

The band hardly plays anymore anyway.

I dunno, I guess it isn't jaw-dropping because I've lived in La. my whole life and being inept is a way of life here.
