Even if they did it’s laughable imagining some acquaintance / friend of them going “hey man, I’ve got this post on TD you’ve got to check out.”


There are people here with connections AND the people in power regularly read TD to keep a pulse on what’s happening in the rumor mill. It’s crazy but it’s true.

There are a few usernames I see over and over who share insider scoop. Some of it pans out and they look like they know what’s happening. Sometimes it doesn’t pan out but I know it was the plan for a moment so even if they look like they don’t know…they did. TD likely has some staffers or insiders who share info, too, though I can’t be sure.

can someone answer me why everyone thinks Wade would come back to LSU from NC State? NC State is a way better job and they average 14k a game and have more NIL. And was done wrong by LSU. Its laughable people think he would drop everything to come back to LSU


He wants to. When he left McNeese for NC State LSU was at play. Woodward and Verge drug their feet and NC State happened instead. Rousse, Schroyer and Will Wade are very, very close. Talk every other day. The plan has always been to get the 3 of them to LSU.
quote:

Wade is at a good spot at NC State. But his contract isn't huge (McMahon's was/is larger). Leaving after just one season would be tough, but LSU could make a very enticing offer with a familiar President, a familiar AD, and a very familiar network of boosters


Wade doesn’t care about the money. If Schroyer and Rousse are at LSU and Verge isn’t, he’ll come back happily. Wade won’t work with Verge.
quote:

schroyer is going sooner or later. Hopefully McNeese names Matt Fontenot AD when it happens.


They’ll name Bridget Martin AD. Senior most member within department, has the respect of everyone. It won’t be splashy but it’ll bring stability. Fontenot will eventually go with Schroyer wherever he goes. He trusts Fontenot and he has strengths he doesn’t have. Trust and loyalty is huge for these people. Schroyer trusts Fontenot. He wants him with him.
That I don’t know.

But Jeff has said under no circumstance will he get a new contract. BoS likes Verge. So, this is going to get messy, I’m sure.

I suspect after a quality football coach is hired we learn more about Title IX infraction or some other scandal that precludes Verge from getting permanent permanent title.

A source….. Here we go with this shite. How about wait until it’s all said and done before “sourcing” anything again?


This is what you say when the president wants to say something but can't say it directly. I wonder why on Earth he can’t publicly say this?!

Hmm. Almost like someone else has his AD support and he doesn’t want to alienate Jeff (who doesn’t like Verge) BUT ALSO needs to quiet public backlash and have the athletic department seem stable.

Just a hunch. ;)
This is the only account I’ve ever made, but whatever you’d like to believe is good with me.

re: Is Verge being set up?

Decision to remove interim tag was made by BoS that have no business making athletic decisions because they don’t know what they’re doing. Leveraged votes to get Rousse to agree to removal. Verge leaked removal to media.

Rousse didn’t trust him BEFORE and now definitely doesn’t...his time is limited.
Verge leaked the removal to the media to (try to) force Rousse’s hand. Rousse didn’t want Verge. Doesn’t trust him. Board members leveraged votes to remove interim title. Agreement was no contract or raise. Just remove title.

Yes Rousse knows about Title IX stuff. But you can’t say “I think it’s outrageous and he’s corrupt and I hate the mfer” to media. Btw Gov hates Verge. Was pissed about title removal.

This is a result of way too many hands in the cookie jar. Not of Rousse being dumb or confused about what interim means.

ETA- and YES this is my first post and YES I just created my account because I know how you people are. I’ve been quietly reading TD for close to 20 years. Now have a vested interest and am *in the know* so felt like joining the conversation. Take it or leave it.
