I would imagine Woodward's little move will cause some backlash and he'll have to retreat. LSU is supposedly an institute of higher learning before it is a promoter of sports teams.

The perceived power of the TAF needs to be reined in hard. LSU controls the Tiger trademark, which means LSU has the power.

Athletes already have a lot of privilege at LSU so I'm sure there is some student and faculty resentment.

The tail is wagging the dog, and it is not a good look.

Not a surprising take from you in the least, you just take the most controversial point of view and roll with it, we get it.

Breaking news:

Poster chinhoyang is still bitter about Johnny Jones. Continues to post bad takes and lacks basic foresight. More at 6.

He isn’t back pedaling?

You think the man deemed the best AD in the land got that title by being a bitch that makes uncalculated moves?

So Chin o wang, what do you mean by back pedal?

If Woodward fails to do what you say he will, please stop posting!

Woodward has been doing Louisiana politics longer than many of the posters on this board have been alive. He goes hunting and fishing and socializes with many of the movers and shakers. I trust his political acumen.

If you are right, Chin, then the state is making the mistake of trying to push out one of its best hires in years.

The state legislature needs to fund the academic programs appropriately.

Woodward is going to bring this program back to the promised land. Between locking down Roy & make sure our coaches are held accountable, it is evident we finally have the supervision we've needed for over a decade.

And how would you describe academics coming to be dependent on a blank check from athletics every year despite repeated instances of documented mismanagement?

we should've fired F King and hired Woodward as President. Would have made the University better much faster and for the long-term.

So much poor reading comprehension.

Woodward never said the athletic department would no longer give money to the academic side.

Just no longer a blank check.

Then why does our institution of higher learning RELY on the $$$ donated to them from said sports teams (TAF) to bail them out?

Maybe it’s because the institution of higher learning sucks at budgeting and is run by a bunch of clowns?
