After the game, many fans walked over to the LSU Assembly Center to watch a late night concert by singer Neil Diamond. Quite a day for me.
That concert was at the Centroplex. I wonder what else ol' Jimmy "remembers".

When you drive down Tulane Avenue in New Orleans right now, you drive past LSU medical and there are large digital billboards with welcome Lane Kiffin messages.
As you continue another 10 blocks you come to old Charity Hospital. It is owned by LSU and LSU has left this white elephant to rot in the heart of New Orleans downtown for 20 years and counting. LSU pays no taxes on it and this mass of blight holds all neighboring blocks hostages. LSU could have fully restored the building for the cost of fired coaches and a new upper deck on the football stadium. Or LSU could have raised the building and let the city move on with redevelopment plans.
The drive down Tulane Avenue right now really demonstrates LSU and Louisiana are a fallen culture.

LSU provided those parties with development opportunities in 2018. Bang up job they've done so far.

“James H. Brown (born May 6, 1940)[2] is an American politician. He served as secretary of state of Louisiana[3] from 1980 to 1988. While Commissioner of Insurance, he was found guilty of lying to a federal agent and served six months in federal prison.[4]”
Was it this Jim Brown?
Yeah, and as someone who was actually around when that stuff happened, I think he got railroaded. His prosecution happened when Jim Letten (that federal attorney with the big dorky mustache) was riding high. Letten was one of those virtuous crusader types that capture the public imagination from time to time but somehow don't manage to accomplish anything lasting.
Letten was a man in love with his own infallibility. He just had to get somebody, somehow, and he got Jim Brown for the pettiest thing imaginable. I don't remember all the details, but it was something like the FBI asked him if someone had committed some crime, and Brown said "no," and later they figured out that Brown really had no way of knowing that. He'd made it up, and that was a Big Deal to them, even though the guy they were asking about really didn't do the thing they were asking about. Yeah.

The fighting tigers of LSU were lucky not to have to play Tulane this year.
Sure. All five of our losses were to teams who finished in the top-15, including four CFP teams. We shared one common opponent, where we lost to Ole Miss by 5 and Tulane lost by 35. Tulane wouldn't even make a bowl game with our schedule, let alone the CFP.
Spot on. I got downvoted for saying all of the Sun Belt teams were straight arse and didn't belong in the playoff. JMU would lose to BAMA by 4 TD's easily, while they would beat the rest of them by 7 plus. Same for Tulane, yay for them, a dumb playoff format let you in only to get your arse smashed again by the same team that destroyed you earlier.

Ole Rubberface trying to make himself relevant again?
Posted on 12/8/25 at 7:26 pm to ragincajun03
To be fair, LSU should make Kiffin and Kelly both coach. 2 coaches = twice as good.

Georgia had to keep Mark Richt around 3 years longer than they wanted b/c they couldn't afford his buyout. I believe it was a paltry $10million
What? Where in the world did you hear this bullshite?
No doubt McGarity was a cheap bastard but "affordability" had never been an issue with the UGA AD and supporters.

He should have been pardoned years ago.
Well he was paroled in 2003 after serving six months. It’s not like he was jailed for years on end and just got out. He was acquitted of all the other charges (quite a list at that) and lost multiple appeals on the conviction, so the perjury must’ve been legit and not some lawfare as some here are suggesting.

Im sure the Gen Flynn perjury was legit as well then. Glad you back the eff bee eye.

Dude, even the Supreme Court denied his appeal. At some point he fricked up.
But I’m sure you’re one of those people who bitches about corruption, unless it’s someone you know or like. Then everyone needs to look the other way, right?

Louisiana’s Governor Jeff Landry said there would be no more sweetheart deals for the new football coach similar to former coach Brian Kelly’s $54 million buyout. “I’m tired of rewarding failure in this country and then leaving the taxpayers to foot the bill.” So was the Governor right? Instead of a $54 million buyout, Coach Kiffin has a $72.8 million buyout. And that’s supposedly a better deal?
I think he is one of the dumbest politicians ever. I am not saying he is dumb, he inserts himself where he doesn't need to. He said what he said about this, LSU hires Kiffin and he is tweeting about it in celebration, but by saying what he said, it made him look week because it was ignored.

Transfer of blame is America’s favorite pastime.
LSU owns the building. They abandoned the building 20 years ago. It remains abandoned.
