Im here to eat crow and say this appears to be a disaster and that Landry really fouled things up.

Sorry for defending him.

Landry created a shitshow last week and they scrambled to “fix” things this week to save face.

Except no one put any thought into anything apparently.

Good for him. He got his start monitoring study hall for athletes in Coates Hall in the 90s in the evenings.

What's going on is a shite show after Landry and a blood thirsty mob called for Woodward's head. We are now reaping what we've sewn.

Landry definitely allowed his own personal vendetta against Woodward to harm LSU.

Its one thing to exact political revenge, its another thing to act without a solid plan. Shame on Landry. Shame on people like me who incorrectly gave him the benefit of the doubt.

F**K Scott Woodward. He hired a terrible football coach, almost killed LSU basketball, and designed an ugly arse arena.

This might all be true. But if you're going to fire him for that, have a solid game plan to replace him with someone better and dont make it so obvious that youre going after him for personal or political reasons.

If you’ve ever followed Landry then you know this is on par for him. There’s plenty of stories out there.

LSU's new president Wade Rousse has made the decision to elevate Verge Ausberry as permanent, full-time athletic director, sources tell
@YahooSports. A formal announcement is expected in the coming days.
So, Dellenger puts this out there but there is nothing official from LSU yet...perhaps it was a trial balloon to gauge public sentiment.

Still, I would like to hear the interview with Rousse to see exactly what he was asked and his full answer.

Can not one fricking person just say what they're supposed to?

All these moving parts aside, public relations at LSU has been an ongoing problem since the Alleva years. One would think there'd be an entire public relations team at LSU. It seems like everyone just speaks out of their arse without thinking of the implications or considering possible repercussions.

So to recap.. Woodward was fired b/c of the Kelly hire. Verge is taking his place, but maybe not. One of the qualifications that everyone keeps mentioning about Verge is that he can hire the next coach, bc he's been a part of the coaching search for the last 4 head football coaches; 3 of which were fired. Am I up to speed?

Back to the old image that people remind me wherever I go is that LSU is being run by a bunch of dumb coonasses from down the Bayou & swamp

When you look completely directionless, why would you put out a trial balloon that makes you look more directionless if you backtrack?

This is an insult. It would have been better just to leave the interim tag on for the time being.
If this is about that Title 9 stuff, these new people need to be educated on how that was a bunch of BS.
