Rumor I hear is JBE and his crew want to move jay dardene out of the capital and put him in F Kings place. I personally think this would be a disaster

Roger Jenkins (CEO Murphy Oil, LSU alum) come on down!

Ah, just kidding. Dude makes like $30 mil a year. But if he ever retired, man I’d want him.

The whole UC system.

He’s familiar with the CSU system from his time at Long Beach and has run multiple campuses here in LA.

He might be an asshat, but on paper he’s a pretty good candidate.

If so, then I don't get the outrage if he's good at the other stuff.


He isn't.

2014 on the football field was great compared to F King's academic performance. LSU's academic standing has steadily declined since that underqualified buffoon arrived.

LSU's ranking in the USNWR has continued to drop every year under his leadership. He needs to go.

F King the kind of bitch who acts all woke for the cause and he’d be the first to cower to resign over some made up SJW bs. No doubt he’ll get a dose of that in Cali.

It’s been widely talked about amongst legislators that Dardenne would become LSU president if JBE was re-elected as payment for helping to get him elected the first time

F. King was one of the biggest toadies for JBE's tax increases that has done nothing to improve the Louisiana economy and actually has harmed it.

Good riddance to that leftist piece of crap. He'll be right at home in Commiefornia.

That would be about as shocking as the sun setting a few hours ago was.

Dardenne is a political whore with absolutely no principles at all.

I hope so.

It will make the task of firing Dardenne and replacing him easier for whatever conservative Governor that replaces JBE.

What I've heard from people whobwork directly for him is this: F. King is a stereotypical academic who loves the title and prestige more than accomplishments. He isn't a strategic thinker, has little vision for the university, and spends more time managing how things look than on making things happen.

Actually, it's Dardenne himself that has always dreamed of having the job. It's unclear whether JBE agrees, but it wouldn't surprise me if he did this just to free up the commissioner position for new blood.

I remember him saying something like he was retiring from politics after the 2015 election, then accepted a job in the JBE administration barely over a month later.
