T or F: There is an ongoing coordinated media campaign to smear LSU

It appears that the sharks in the media have sensed blood in the water after the Ole Miss loss and are further dragging LSU through the mud.
In the past 2 days:
-Article circulates about 2025 rape case for which LSU followed Title IX protocols and the player was dismissed.
-Article circulates about the athletic budget deficit, which is in no way abnormal (Texas is literally operating at a $23.2 million deficit, OU double that).
-SEC releases a statement, widely circulated by its lackeys, attempting to portray LSU/Louisiana as a bad actor when we literally only filed a standard 12(b)6 motion to dismiss (which by the way, THE TWO PLAYERS ARE NOT AND CANNOT BE ON THE TEAM SO WHAT ARE WE EVEN SUING ABOUT).
This is on top of LSU getting constantly buried on social media by national/SEC talking heads and John Talty releasing an entire 300 page book dedicated to shitting on Kiffin (I was gifted this book and read it, and it’s trash. Borderline libel. Talty magnifies the negative things people have to say about Kiffin, and the good things are relegated to a paragraph at the end of each chapter. And that’s not even getting into the the straight up conjecture/unfounded characterizations where the author goes inside Kiffin’s head.)
I say all this to say it’s just frustrating being the national whipping boy and it pisses me off that the powers that be feel they need to punish LSU for the mortal sin of trying to field a competitive football team. When we win it’s crickets, when we lose it’s an avalanche of shite.

True. But frick em who cares. It’s always us against the world. Tomorrow we show them

Comes with the territory. We're the big boy now, this is how big boys get treated by a self-serving media. I'd much rather this than nobody giving a you know what about us

They are looking for clicks and views. It's an entertainment industry. It's not media. Drama pays the bills.

The player wasn’t dismissed. He’s currently on the team.

Articles are written about this all the time for schools. That’s why you know that Texas has a $23.2 million deficit.
As for the rest, you wanted a polarizing coach and a big name brand, this is the stuff that comes with it. Either get over it or go cheer for a small school with a no name coach, then you won’t have to worry about the media talking about your school at all.

I've seen multiple LSU-related articles online with highly negative spins and headlines like "Lane Kiffin and LSU plummet in the rankings..." or "Lane Kiffin caught lying after Ole Miss loss..." It's gotten worse since Kiffin spoke out about how Ole Miss was blasting music during the pre-snap count last weekend. They're calling him a sore loser. They've put us on upset alert again this weekend and are saying that our season is done with one with loss. I can't help but think that the SEC is fueling the fires. Sankey and his goons aren't going to stop until they can punish us with fines or suspensions.

Probably false as a campaign. But there is inordinate attention from "journalist".
The more shockingly sorted the story the more potential revenue.
They only write and say things positive when you are dead or near dead.

I’ve been convinced of this the whole time. They’re trying to have a fake reality show

Kendall Briles is the OC at South Carolina. When's the last time you heard something bad about them for hiring a guy who ran a rape program?

I've sat back and read your bs...and it is constantly bs, like you have some sort of agenda on here to be this contrary and on here. Just so you know, not that my opinion matters, but you are a poor poster...and not good for the board.
Posted on 9/25/26 at 7:37 pm to red sox fan 13
YES.....they are full of envy! Plus anybody who hired Kiffin is the villain!

Did they hire his dad, too? Art Briles ran the Baylor program. Kendal Briles was the receiver coach there. Plus, Lane hired him at FAU as his offensive coordinator in 2018.

Letting a rapist come back to school and not arresting him is following protocol? A crime he admitted to.

If you don't believe Kendall was balls deep in that, you're crazy.

This is libel.

So do you think Lane just ignored that when he hired him at FAU??
