Why? Why? That too right before the season opener so that now every media person can include this in their talking points when discussing the team. Coaches will have to answer stupid questions about it all year long. Just all around stupid. It’s been LSU football pre game process for YEARS that they are in the locker room for the anthem and then come out onto the field. Don’t think there was any political lean or disrespect to the anthem/country meant by it….Until now. Thanks Landry….great use of his time instead of helping to get Louisiana of the bottom of every state ranking list and actually help the people.

You are doing exactly what you claim to hate by starting this thread.

Anyone west of the Mississippi should not be allowed to be Governor going forward.

This is old news. You can also thank the media for bringing back up. Landry's spokesperson had no comment and I doubt Landry will either.

“Landry spokesperson Kate Kelly declined comment.“

Landry was very much uneducated in the NCAA process for football and it was stupid. The referenced article says that LSU evaluated and won’t change or challenge the process. Landry did not comment.

Nobody has commented on this since the spring. This is a total non story

Landry asked this in the spring around the time of the women's BB final 4. It was dumb, it's new now because LSU announced they will not change their pregame routine. It'll fade away again if people quit talking about it. So quit.

He’s also the guy who appointed convict Cleo to important committee chair. Who cleared the way for 2nd minority US Congressional without opposition..then Cleo ran for this exact seat….

Nothing says freedom more than forcing people to do something they don’t agree with.

He’s too dumb to even realize the teams are never on the field for national anthem

Hate to break it to you, hoss, but LSU waited till the week of the season opener to pick this scab.


Move on, tRant addressed this at length when he did this, MONTHS ago.

I have been attending LSU football home games for 30 years. I’ve never once seen a noteworthy incident during the anthem.

The way the school handles it has always been the correct choice. This is a move by the governor to generate outrage from simpletons and score political points. Ignore it and move on.

Wrong again. The LSU women’s basketball team has always had the same pregame routine. They didn’t change a thing.

Landry actually did by opening his big arse opportunistic mouth as per usual, Kim was defending the team’s routine that has stayed the same for years.
