I can agree with that if they were really coming after football. But if there is evidence that football can be fricked what’s to stop it from happening now

Just felt like wrong move I loved that guy

They were trying to nail LSU for lack of institutional control, which would involve sports beyond just basketball and used football as an additional bargaining chip. And once you open up an investigation into football, you never know what they might find. Receipt from when a staffer paid thought it was legal for him to pay for Joe Burrow's lunch in 2017, but actually wasn't? Let's vacate all their wins in 2018 and 2019 then for impermissable benefits, etc. etc.

I liked Wade too, just not at the expense of LSU football.

He did not interview Kiffin the last cycle which was ridiculous!



Kiffin's resume even now is worse than Kelly's. Kiffin had done nothing to warrant the lsu job in 2021. Literally nothing.

Still waiting for an explanation for why Davis was on the staff, entrenched as OL coach. I don’t know the facts, but many have said that was a Woody thing. If so, that’s turrible.

MBB is looking like a tournament team this year.

Didn't McMahon say we should judge him in year 4? It takes time to build a winning program these days.

We all knew in 2021 kiffin wanted to come here and we knew he was an offensive expert. I never said Kelly was a bad hire at the time. Kiffin did not have an interview that was irresponsible. Also this is a new era of college football Jimbo fisher has an awesome resume do you want him??

When did "These days" begin?

How long did it take Wade?

Who are you predicting will go further in the Tourney this year.
Wade in his first year at NC State or Mac in his fourth year at LSU?

I just talked to an old professor friend of mine. His explanation was that Scott was fired because he fired the head coach without board approval. Scott did not intend to fire BK, but Brian‘s refusal to fire Sloan caused Scott to react stupidly. The governor would’ve had to have given him the OK for the firing since there was no president or chancellor. When the governor heard about the firing, he erroneously thought that The taxpayers of Louisiana were going to be on the hook for BK‘s buyout that made the governor very angry and made him lash out at Scott. BK caused all of this with his laziness. He should’ve managed and led this football team.
