The Tribute was a cool course, it was around $100 on a weekend. Each hole is a replica of a Scottish course hole. They also have a second course (Old American) which I have not played but is replicas of Northeast America holes.

All these looked good but a little out of our budget for this trip! Thanks for suggestions!

Just got back from the W in Conchal Reserve in Costa Rica. Was great. Will provide full report tomorrow.

This great, will be extremely helpful. Think we are down to Westin/W Costa Rica, Secrets Costa Majures or Conrad/Hilton Tulum. Pivoted on Mexico and only Marriott bc of price.

Marriott All Inclusive Recs?

Posted by ForeverLSU5 on 5/29/25 at 9:10 pm

Looking to do an all-inclusive late November/early December for my 30th. Want to avoid Bahamas, Mexico, and Dominican. Looking to stay with Marriott as I have a free night award, 5 NUA’s, and my highest status with them. Would be open to other brands at around $500-$600 a night for 5 nights. The Westin Costa Rica looks good, anyone been?

Must haves: Beach, good food, good drinks

By or on a golf course would be a PLUS but not a MUST

Yea, we are not firing McMahon if he makes the tournament this year.

Just making the tourney MIGHT get him another year. If we make tourney and lose in first round it will depend on what coaches are available/show interest that determines if he gets another year. Winning a game in the tourney is the only way he is 100% safe.

LSU would owe Kelly like $60 million to fire him after next year. They aren't paying that buyout.

1.) It drops to roughly 50 million in November

2.) I do think LSU makes the playoffs so the scenario won't matter

3.) Not making the playoffs barring season ending injuries to multiple key starters (Nuss, Weeks, etc.) would be a DISASTER. He will 100% be fired if LSU fails to make playoffs (unless Nuss gets injured).

What do you mean by this?

Kelly is 100% gone if LSU does not make playoffs.

About 50% chance Woodward is gone in the next year, percentage goes WAY up if LSU does not make playoffs.

CMM is not getting another year barring a NCAA Tournament run (has to win at least 1 NCAA tournament game). Just making the tourney will not be enough most likely.

Those are the major dominos in the next year.

This is just domino 1 of MAJOR changes in LSU’s athletic department in the next year ( I know Tate isn’t just athletics but he was Woodward’s boss).

The spa and pool on the 3rd floor by the hotel is a relaxing time kill, especially if you are a swimmer. I usually spend a few hours there, then an hour shopping or browsing the high end shops for fun and the rest in the lounge.

8 hrs is nothing in that airport.

Is all this open overnight though?

Thanks for suggestions everyone, think we will do hotel and then wake up and go to loung early to experience it.

8 Hour Overnight Layover in Qatar

Posted by ForeverLSU5 on 4/5/25 at 10:08 am

Flying QSuites back from honeymoon and have an 8 hour layover beginning roughly at 11 PM. Anyone here booked the airport hotel there? Should we just hangout in the Business Lounge explore the airport?

The interest was definetely mutual. He went to the Michigan football game with big Texas boosters, they have been courting him for almost a year now.

What a fricking joke. If it wasn't obvious before it is now, Scott and Tate are not serious about LSU basketball.

Brian Kelly likely hasn’t contacted Greg since October 2023.

Which is about the time Greg's family lawyered up. So Kelly not contacting him makes sense as LSU/their attornies likely decided this. It's really not that hard of a concept to understand.
