He is the antithesis to fundraising. He is a blight on our great school and anyone arguing otherwise should gtfo with him.

But, you are correct. He is a symptom of the problem. Not the cause.

Agree with this move...JBE, F King, and their cronies need to stop leeching off athletics to support LSU. There’s a reason people don’t donate more to the academic side instead of athletics...it’s ran by incompetent buffoons and no telling where your money would go.



Wasn't F King a Jindal guy? What does he have to do with JBE?

I can't wait for the specific project the AD donates to and has oversight of spending. Watch it turn out beautifully.

Instead of money being swallowed by the university into unknown things.

Hell, I hope whatever they do donate to has a plaque in front of it that says "Thank you to the Tiger Athletic Foundation and Athletic Department for making this possible"

Yes.

I'm liberal and I'm happy about this. Trying to make this political is silly.

JBE has refused to update/re-do the Louisiana constitution which basically cripples higher education and healthcare in the state.

They’re the ones that have been in academia or government their entire lives and don’t understand why they can’t just have things.

Shocked, I am

Plenty of special interests don't want this to happen, has nothing to do with D or R.

You can’t avoid it.

You fricking liberals are to blame for the acceleration of these problems.

You don’t think the flagship university of the state has anything to do with the governor?

I think that professor bitching about the new LSU pad for the football players may have put the nail in the coffin.

While I agree it is best to generate funds for the academic institution from other avenues, what if that is not possible?


You posted a bunch on nonsense. But I'll take a stab at this. The athletic department could suck, and no funds could be coming from them. That's the other option.


Feel free to put any money you spend because of athletics into the academic side. Have season tickets? Don't renew, give that money to the uni instead of taff.

Take trips to the games? Stop going, use that money you would have spent on bringing the family to br and donate it to academics.

And this goes for any one that bitches about this. Put up or shut up. You have a choice of where your money goes.

I’m quite sure this was in the works for a while.

Look, multiple things can be true:

LSU needs a higher endowment and needs more funding
LSU Athletics can built whatever the frick they want
People can donate to whatever entity they want

All this tribalism is so fricking stupid, academics vs. Athletics, right vs. left, etc.

Just a bunch of people with lazy takes who refuse to examine something from all sides. It’s fricking nauseating.

Woodward should have another press conference and announce that he's purchased small vacuums for every professor's office on campus. Special project #1, complete.
