The sooner a new president comes the better off for LSU Athletics.

I don’t see Kelly going anywhere until a president is named.

The best we can hope for in the short term is for Sloan to go. Let Van Buren play and at least be competitive against Bama and OU and salvage a bowl game.

Two weeks ago I didn’t think Kelly would be fired this year. The last two weeks changed my mind.

Does the BOS only want to hire black people for positions at LSU.
Sure seems that way

LSU has always been grossly underfunded by the state. The campus library is easily the most embarrassing building in the SEC. And yet, millions are poured into athletics. And while I understand the two sides are funded differently, Landry sees LSU as wasteful with finances.

the history of the LSU BOS and LSU Athletics is pretty spotty
the BOS are all political people appointed in a political process by a politician

Collis Temple was the loudest voice in the media for Mel Tucker, what a disaster that would have been

we really need a strong pro-athletics LSU President to be named quickly to weather this storm

A ULL losing money on athletics in a state in a perpetual budget crisis

the same Landry running for re-election in ‘28 that loves the camera

really bad timing


Meh, he will be incentivized to “save LSU football”. But I don’t like having all the cooks in the kitchen.

This has been LSU’s # 1 problem and why we fail so much compared to a program like Alabama! The politics! ??

MM’s live youtube tonight had a great breakdown of the political elements here

he went into great detail on the dynamics of Gov Jeff Landry and his cleaning house at LSU

MM feels woodward is out and Austin Thomas will run point on the coaching search

the meeting today at the LA Gov Mansion did not include Woodward

where didnthr “Jeff Landry isn’t a fan if thr money LSU spends on atheltics” talk come from?

He spend his own money in a fake Mike.

He may be a republican but he’s also a politician and you don’t win elections tanking LSU football to “save” the athletic department money.

Landry would commit political suicide if he ever forces LSU to hire the wrong coach.If he hires a new president and lets him and the BOS hire the new coach the coach better be great or in 3 years he will be a regular citizen again .
