BOS is approving hires before they are made by Woodward?

They can't afford to have him estranged from the program.

Well he's 85, and judging from some of his recent radio appearances on 104.5, I'm not entirely sure he knows where he is at all times. Why exactly would the current AD really care if Skip is all in on the hire or not? Are there some massive baseball donors that actually keep the program afloat and will leave if Skip is left out?

Incredibly frustrating turn of events. LSU deserves what it gets if they screw this up

If it’s Vitello or McDonnell I’ll still be ecstatic


Enlighten me on how one can point to a single blowout loss in a regional in support of the proposition that Sully is a bad candidate then support McDonnell as a candidate while completely ignoring the fact that he missed the postseason entirely

Mike Bianco equals Joe Alleva hire. Going nowhere fast

I don’t think Sully is a bad candidate, he is easily one of the very best potential hires. But I think the recruiting situation that McDonnell and Vitello are currently in translates better to how rosters have to be built at LSU.

I read this situation as The BOS consulted Skip and he put the kibosh on it. For obvious reasons, Skip is still revered by the LSU Admin and BOS. The 'Hold the Rope' documentary has only reburnished Bertman's place as the kingmaker of the baseball program


Am I the only one that has a HUGE problem w/ this? Let Woody do his damn job. Micro Mgt by political appointees made by a hack of a Governor is a recipe for disaster.

Don’t melt along with OTOP. You were all in with O’Sullivan

No. Yours just happened to be the last in a series of 4+ pages that almost universally thumbs downed Sully (many citing his team's regional performance) and thumbs up'd McDonnell (ignoring how bad his team was this year).

Lol he was one of 3 hires I’d be thrilled with

Vitello or McDonnell would also be great choices.

Only melting about the fact that this smells like Louisiana.

LSU can still hire an elite coach. I’m just no longer confident that they will after this turn of events.

Slept with someone's girlfriend, it's a rumor but I hear it is very true. I just have nothing to back it up. There is just too much going on to even look at that guy to become LSU head coach

Didn’t Skip hire Smoke to replace him? Didn’t Saban recommend Houston Nutt as his replacement? Maybe these guys shouldn’t make these decisions.

It's hilarious watching ya'll celebrate not getting a coach that has actually won a title and been to Omaha so many times. Will you still be celebrating when you get Bianco?


He's got baggage bro, LSU isn't risking that.

Is what it is.
