1. Take out all metal bench seating & install quality chair back seats throughout all of Death Valley.
Pressure wash + dry all of the stadium concourse levels. Install solar powered/battery recharging fans to keep air moving to prevent moisture + mildew build-up year-round that also provides a better experience during Sept & Oct home (&some hot Nov) games.
Install new LSU/Tiger Stadium historical graphics throughout all of the concourse levels. Basically make walking around an enjoyable viewing experience. It would also bring back 100s/1000s of LSU athletic legends to the stadium to show their families + friends. Not to mention all of of the social media content that would be able to be posted in-season + year-round. The ad revenue generation alone is worth it.
Upgrade concessions quality without increasing pricing. There are still PLENTY of improved eating options in existence for the game price levels where we don't need expired/stale foods.

2. Scan all tickets out after the game is over for priority points towards priority points for Bowl/Playoff tickets, as well as priority/premium access for all other sports home/away/post-season.
For students, include priority points for "premium" student section seating/entry for bball/vball/gymnastics in the PMAC + Alex Box/Tiger Park.
In fact, do this for all sports to increase attendance + duration stays across the board.

3. Encourage/configure post game tailgating + "events/entertainment" to keep more people on campus & reduce traffic issues. If you have things for people to do post game for 45m-1hr+ after a game = you will have a much better experience.
Don't make it an extra longer day for people already working the gameday experience. Have a post-game shift of people.coming in to work it.
i.e. Post Game movies or next set of fball game watch parties in the PMAC & on the Parade Grounds with "Fan Fest" style activties. Bring in a bunch of LSU atheltic legends to sign autographs, take fan pictures, etc.
Entry with Game Ticket & pre-submitted list (to minimize non-game attending masses from showing up after the game to bring problems.
Ultimately, keep people ON campus spending money for concessions, activities, prizes, LSU Shop, etc.
4. Build Parking Garages with STRICT post football game contraflow expectations & parking space purchasing with understanding of where you are going to be forced to contraflow fans are preparing/planning accordingly.
A. Parking Garage on Old Front 9: Contraflow to Burbank eastbound (away from the river) with no surface street turns left or right until you get beyond Gardere for 90 minutes post-game. If you're going somewhere closer or that requires a turn = keep driving then double back OR stay on campus for a bit.
B. Parking Garage in the parking lot of the Ag Center. Contraflow to Highland Southbound & another towards the Lakes (with that left turn towards I-10 with traffic cops at the main intersections keeping things flowing for 90 minutes post-game.
C. Parking garage at River Rd. behind Tiger Park. Contractor North & Southbound only for 90-minites post-game.
You'll need need traffic police getting people up to I-10 Westbound as smoothly as possible.

A-C will ALL need proper staffing for parking space sales + explanations as well as regular website/social media posts + emails/texts to those parking purchasers as well as basic signage on the expectations. Additionally, LSU will need to put together a rather public campaign explaining the improved/intended contraflow so that non-campus goers are as aware as possible & will avoid trying to come near campus in any direction. They'll need to plan accordingly or sit & wait for the 90+ minutes.
There's no other "fair" way around it. You can't expect to add to the problems of contraflow because you didn't know post-game traffic exists...
Southside 70 - Carencro 35: Final (not a typo)

District 3-5A will come down to acadiana v carencro next week. aha wins = district champs + Southside is runner-up (so long as they beat NISH)
cro wins = co-district champs with acadiana.
Southside 45 - Lafayette 24.

Apparently a lot of LHS was sick with either pink eye or walking pneumonia. Richmond Saunier, transfer from Southside could not get much going other than a handful of decent plays. Also, he split time at QB with Sr. QB John Carney.
RS has reportedly been offered by Univ. Of South AL, among some others. His brother is up at Dartmouth.

SHS moves to 3-1, 1-0
LHS to 3-1, 0-1

You are correct.

The public school teams under the LLL/YLL need some volunteer coach help. Once they get a little support behind them, there's potential for some stipend action from team/players dues.

We are hoping to get more kids interested from Broussard MS & Milton MS.
ARCA MS had enough kids in Spring LLL to field 2 teams for Sixes play, which was great. Really hoping we can build on that to get them as the next HS team in the area.

STM has multiple alums helping to volunteer with the 4 main Catholic MS feeders. We love that.
That said, we could always use a handful more to help coach more kids more skills at this age level.

Unfortunately this won't be the year. However, then new ESPN deal WILL help increase coverage leading to more funding & eventually Korea participants.

How much are yall paying over in La?


Teacher pay is going to be what it is for the respective districts or private schools. I believe starting salary/no years of experience is around $45k these days. Bonuses for Masters & PhD.

The coaching pay is going to vary drastically across the community based vs. Public/Private school based teams. Stipends van certainly he supplemented with private lessons as well as summer/winter travel club team pay as well.

To clarify- the cureent openings are for existing teams that have just experienced some turnover, due to a couple of retirements & full time alternate jobs acceptances.

The teams have good, dedicated kids.

Holy shite.
Episode 9 (Tonato) Szn 4 is 1 of the most powerful I've experienced in a show.
I'm all kinds of emotional right now.
Waterdogs v Redwood today at 5p will be a solid game.
Expecting high scoring.
I have a field level view of the team dog pile. Tje best part is the bullpen catcher running in from RF then jumping IN to the pile. But there's a field/security guy in the way a bit & need him video photoshopped out then turned into an "IN" gif.

Can anyone help me? I can/will email you the video.
Just sayin'
Omaha is a good time, when you know where to go.


Geaux Tigers
Picked up 2 friends along the way + 3 gas stops.
We here. We ready!

Geaux Tigers
The Bear Jones!!!

(Who has the Inglorious Basterds Bear Jew/Jones fark???)
Solid games to get the summer started.

Chaos have a lot of work to do.

Redwoods are a brand new team with a new coaching staff.
This will set lacrosse IG & Twitter on fire this wknd.

If/when Pat Spencer finishes his NBA career = he will join the PLL & bring 10000s more eyeballs to the league.
You're welcome & you're right.

The LHSLL has really stepped up their game with scores + weekly awards info on social media.

If teams can keep the info sharing rolling along the sport will continue to grow in LA.

There's a good chance we see 3-5+ new HS teams joining the league within the next 2-3 years. Steady growth will welcome to see.
Yes sir!

Mayhem is here.

The transfer portal & NIL really opened up the NCAA D1 landscape. This year is really the 1st instance we see much more parody across the bracket. A "blue blood" is still going to win it all but the 1st round is no longer an easy W for the Top Seeds.
Jesuit wins their 3rd state title in a row. 4 of the last 5.

VSN Highlights on IG

Newman with their 1st ever state title appearance, battled all game keeping the score tight. Jesuit leaned on their roster experience & St. Attackman Wilson F. who won his 3rd State Title Offensive MVP Award.
