He’s raising money for the guy that threatens to cut LSU every year.

Terrible move allowing the coach to become directly involved. I don't care who is in office, the LSU football coach needs to stay away from fundraisers. Be friendly during visits, but never get involved.

Wait until the day a future governor demands they show up.

ETA - or consider if we have a governor who favors ULL or La Tech run against "the LSU coach". Good job LSU admin. Hacks once again.

People aren’t going to want to hear this, and I don’t like it either. But I’m afraid this is pointing to Edwards reaching similar to Mary Landrieu status.

We talk about how he’s a leftist Democrat. Louisiana is supposed to be a red state. Yet, we might just see some big money “Republican” business donors and people like the Acadian Ambulance owner give him campaign donations and support him because they believe he has the best chance to win.

As long as Gov Edwards is in office, Coach O keeps his job.

The overwhelmingly number of kids these guys are recruiting are being raised by Democrats.


Nothing to see here.

The only thing dumber than some of these football players being "collegiates" is politicians having a role on who the football coach is.
frick college football for this nonsense.

Shows he doesn’t know what he’s talking about. It’s been so long many LSU fans have no idea what a championship QB looks like up close.

I'm not surprised Orgeron supports dems, since he wasn't hired based on his qualifications.

I've said it many times, and will say it again, LSU could and should've done better.

Agree. College football is a travesty these days.
