re: That was a brutal interview with Brando

While Brando has a huge ego & was a bit bombastic and I am no fan, does any LSU fan really feel that La. politics does not have a major influence on the LSU football program? As a long time LSU fan going back to 1961, I have no argument about anything he said about LSU's lack of leadership. I do feel he went a bit over the edge in declaring any HC would be a fool to come here, however. When Mark Emmerette,one of LSU's most politically strongest presidents, left LSU, because of a new governor taking over, Saban left LSU in a heartbeat. Not that that was his main reason...think $$$$...but he knew he had lost his shield.
