Pertinent questions for this year:

How's the new guy?
Will we get up to 325 this year?
Is that ridiculous dying donkey of noise going to be played?
Neck on the way back?
Word is Vandy is the full band trip. True?

Biggest question: what’s the status with Neck?

The band played it throughout the season. I noticed it on the replay of the Georgia game.

Sounds like something SWAC bands play!

There is a new guy? I definitely missed that one. What happened to Illinas or whatever his name was?

Honestly, I was at the game and couldn't hear our little pep band. But I was so far up that the United Airlines jets going in and out of Houston were below me.

All that smoke from the fireworks ruins every damn pic of pregame. Wish they’d either get rid of them or just shoot the ones from the top of the scoreboards.

Who’s cousin of a state employee owns the fireworks company?

The new guy isn’t new to LSU, he has been on the staff for a few years now. Dr Illinas is now the director of bands at Oregon. I think the band has camp next month and they will know some numbers then.

Thanks for the response. Was not aware that Dr. Illinas had left.

Was Oregon a better opportunity or was he run off? Is the new (not so new) guy permanent, or are they looking for a replacement?

While here, he was the director of Tiger Band. At Oregon, he's director of bands. So, a promotion. That, and he could have been looking to jump ship to avoid the scrutiny when it hits the fan regarding the SOM allegedly taking the AD's money and using it on other things besides Tiger Band.

They promoted from within. As far as I know, LSU did not perform an external search for a new director.
