imo... the only scenario where this makes sense is if the new President has been hired but unannounced... and the new President has his own guy for the AD position and in an effort to expedite the process of installing the new people, and facilitating the coaching search with the new people, Woodward made a deal to quit without forfeiting his money...



I think this is what happened. Woodward probably worked out a deal to just say they parted ways.

He had a pretty good resume, wouldn’t surprise me if he lands another AD job soon.


Major athletic departments are going to be calling him immediately.

Our dumbass governor and fans caused this.

So this seems like the boosters want Lane and Woody might've gotten in the way again

This seems to be really good news

Agree wholeheartedly our Governor and the majority of our fan base are truly representative of our national ranking of the most poorly educated simpletons

Unsurprising. What else is he supposed to do after Landry, on his own initiative, told the world the AD wouldn't be hiring the football coach?

I think it's good for LSU that both Kelly and Woodward are out. I think it's bad for LSU that the governor is meddling publicly to the degree that he is. We will see if the good outweighs the bad in the end.

I assume that isn’t accurate if he’s still getting the $6 plus million, unless they told him he could have it if he quit instead of being fired.

If the Governor is trashing you in press condenses then makes sense

This seems very plausible. If President snd AD are named soon your scenario becomes more plausible

If you liked BK and Woodie then he’s fricking us really bad.

If you’re like the rest of us… and wanted this. Up to this point he’s doing good for this program.

Less of a hope for lane. But an expectation


So, in your own words here, he is screwing LSU in this process.

A guy that was probably #1 on most peoples list is a longshot because our idiot Governor can't stay in his own lane and stick to politics. He had to bring his stupid self to the football program which he has absolutely no knowledge about but wants to pretend he knows everything.

I think you’re reading the last part wrong. Less of a hope, more of an expectation.

From someone who would know, during the day Thursday Woodward was given the option from Landry to resign or be fired.

I guess Woody had his reasons for letting it go down the way that it did, but I would have made them fire my arse.

So was it “resign or be fired”? So he gets buyout regardless?

Because straight up, unilateral quiting should not include severance pay.
