3) We ran off a legit University President because he didn't see eye to eye with our Governor.


Meh. Tate was a wolf in sheep’s clothing. I don’t have a problem with this.

5) We ran off a AD who had a NC in football, NC in baseball, NC in womens basketball, and NC in gymnastics (Baseball, Womens basketball, and gymnastics were his hires). Yes he shite the bed with BK hire but on paper... I get it.


He had to be convinced to hire Jay Johnson after a failed pursuit of Kevin O’ Sullivan. And those are all nice hires but none of those programs pay the bills besides baseball. His handling of BK and Will wade cost him his job.




I agree with most your post though.

Did I say something inaccurate?

If you’re so sure that I have, you should be out there betting the don’t on all of these coaches.

Which of course you aren’t.


In fairness, if you believe what you said then you should have put money down on all three, right? Have you?

I could see Brady. I think it would be a mistake, but I could see it.

Saban? No.
Kiffen? I doubt very much.

would almost agree if not for transfer rule and NIL…. kids will not pay attention to this…. Kids want to play and get paid plain and simple.


The problem here is that if LSU doesn’t have the money to pay the contracted terms to the fired coach do they have the money to pay NIL, and will they renege like they did with that coach ?

Interesting. Did they do a Frank Wilson investigation into it at the time or did they keep the evidence on ice until needed? Will they produce a used condom and a Motel Six receipt? Sounds like this is about to get good.

I won't completely disagree, and I love kicking dirt on LSU, but Pruitt sued Tenner and it didn't stop them from making a decent hire.

Lol…The LSU fanbase self delusion has no limits. You are not an “elite” coaching position. You cannot afford a top coach even if he were interested. The only way a top coach goes to LSU is with a BK range contract. Given LSU/BK ongoing fiasco, LSU will have to pay a huge amount upfront or have an absolute iron clad buyout written by the agent of the coach. . When you have a bad credit history, the down payment or interest costs are much higher. LSU has been the biggest shite show in college football history. It is what it is.

You all fricked this up well before he (governor) ever got involved by going off half cocked and firing kelly with no plan in place.


Brian Kelly was fired at the Governors mansion. Do you think our clown wasn't the Muppet master?

Technically a student dropout realtor who BK's wife used to buy their house. Still wrapped up in LSU. Still falls under the moral clause of contract. However I don't believe LSU can win the lawsuit and we'll just pay more to make it go away. It's a lose lose situation.

The governor neither hired nor fired Kelly.

Yes, he ran his mouth when he should have kept it shut.

He didn't hire your rent-a-cop president, and he didn't promote Ausberry.

Y'all been building this dumpster fire since before Landry was in office.

This could completely blow up in the face of LSU if Mrs Kelly gets out in front of it (either because she completely stands behind BK or because she knows half of that money is hers). She comes out and says "Brian and I have addressed this difficult time in our marriage and have been doing everything we can to work through it. I had asked that the LSU athletic department allow us to work though our private matters in private but they have unfortunately decided to use an extremely painful moment in our marriage as a point of leverage in negotiation".

Would look absolutely terrible.

Imagine being an Aggie saying LSU is n a deep hole when they’ve never lived to see any success in their entire athletic program.

THIS WOULD NEVER HAPPEN RIGHT???

And some rube on a message board thinks the simple act of rooting for a team gives them more authority to speak on institutional ineptitude compared to someone who roots for another team?

What exactly have you done to help LSU accomplish anything? Buy some tickets for their games, get drunk and spend the bulk of your fandom whining about the refs? Does that make you the authority?
