When you're talking about the liberal media, The Advocate is the personification of that dynamic. Its owner is a former Democratic candidate for governor & has turned the paper into a New York Times wannabe. It has zero credibility.

If he was convicted of a crime I would have an issue with it. But the charges were dropped

They're not wrong but there is pretty much 0 integrity in major college sports across the board.

Yet you talk smack about Todd Golden and he was never even charged.

Not reading that, but hiring two coaches employed by other well known universities is a bad thing?

Last week you got bamboozled by a tweet

This week it’s a letter to the editor

Hey Kentucky fan if LSU is desperate what are you cats fans,you have to live with Pope who you don’t like.If you could have poached Petino,Oats,Pearle you would have jumped at the chance.Yet all you do is criticize other programs for trying to hire the best coach they can .what you are is a hipocrite looking to disparage others to make yourself feel good about your inability to get a good hire.

Is the Advocate the Louisiana version of AL.com? I need to know to what degree to dismiss any drivel it puts out, if it is.

That paper would really love Mitch Barnhart’s golden parachute of $ 950 k per year for an undefined position. Not approved by the Board of Trustees but given without discussion by the President of the University.

I congratulate LSU. At least they know what position they are filling.
