At Motel 6 they leave the light on.

Maybe Lod cook is too close to the action. Too many distractions for the players. Saban use to bus them to Gonzales.

Could increase revenue. Instead of the university paying for the team to stay there, they can make more money on fans and boosters staying there.

Obviously because he isn’t a good culture fit here. Will never work.





This is sarcasm.

They found SEC bugs in all of the rooms. The FBI is now involved.

Because he is the head coach and can do what he wants. Total culture change. Its a good thing.

I think this is the answer. It always struck me as odd when we stayed at Lod Cook and the players would be riding the elevators with us to get to their rooms. They are constantly having to deal with distracting conversations and annoying (albeit innocent) questions like, "are we ready?" or "are you guys going to really slaughter them tomorrow?". It is full of distractions.
(maybe worse than them just staying in their dorm rooms/apartments).

He’s looking to get some Hilton Honors points.

Increased cash flow > more revenue
As in, Lod Cook better charge more of fans and boosters than does the new hotel charge LSU for the team...

OK, now this got me curious... when did the players stay at the Cook hotel?

Probably because lsu wants those rooms for $.

I imagine any hotel in Baton Rouge on a Saturday will be a distraction with fans. Name a hotel that won’t have people staying for a football game in Baton Rouge on a Saturday in the fall

Because the players kept doing drugs in their room the night before the game
