But, it doesn't change that he was a longtime LSU sports beat writer before going to Outkick in 2021

Guilbeau didn’t take a sudden heel turn in 2021. His beat / employment has never changed a thing.

His entire career has had the tone of 2025-2026 Ross Dellenger for as long as I can remember.

The article is quite logical.

I don't doubt it, which I apparently failed to articulate.

Heels get more clicks. They often eat their own as the largest audience is internal to generate those clicks. Yet, outside audiences will still view them as bias torward the beat they cover.

Not surprised he'd write a pro-LSU piece given his history and the current climate. It is more edgy to support the perceived villain the media and this circus has created in LSU.

Kiffin’s words prove LSU wanted the players. They may prove LSU intended to take advantage of a legal opening if one survived. They do not prove LSU selected the venue, hired the lawyers, controlled the plaintiffs or initiated the lawsuit that had already been filed.

The complaint publicly identifies no LSU email or text directing litigation, no sworn declaration from a player or agent, no financial arrangement with counsel and no firsthand witness saying Kiffin ordered anyone to sue. Discovery may produce such evidence. If it exists, the SEC should present it.

What the conference may not honestly do is collapse two different propositions into one. Recruiting athletes who are already litigating is not the same thing as creating their litigation. Participating in one corner of a nationwide controversy is not the same thing as orchestrating the whole crisis.

The amount of people that think Glenn is the one saying it when he literally links the actual author of the article in the post they just read is astounding.

That is not strong governance. It is wounded authority looking for someone to hurt.


I’ve seen more professionalism out of my HOA.

Greg Sankey and his toadies make the Lindsay Clancy jury look ethical.

Not choosing to be a fricking idiot doesn’t make him pro LSU.

Jesus Christ, if Guilbeau is taking LSU’s side here, you know the SEC screwed this up in ways most here can’t even fathom.

Saban says “Let’s pass that Protect College Sports Act”. President of Tenner, a massive Democrat and the President of Ole Piss who is one of 4 at that level on the committee, stirs this shite and says “we pissed about Kiffin leaving. Then Sankey and his mouthpiece go a smear campaign - LSu says NOTHING.
Then they threaten to the point that it pissed off a powerful member of the Senate Judiciary committee AND a Vanderbilt grad, whose university could be sued as a private school in fricking federal court. That guy is a former Democrat and now a Republican, the controlling party in the senate, Senator John Kennedy of Louisiana. And they also piss off the Speaker of the freaking House an LSU grad who can slow down all of it in Mike Johnson during the fricking Republican midterm convention.
Here is information on Senator John Kennedy (La)
Education
Vanderbilt University (BA)
University of Virginia (JD)
Magdalen College, Oxford (BCL)

Next up:
Saban calls a secret meeting and chews asses of Sankey and those 2 weasels:
“1. We pissed off the Speaker of the House without any evidence aight
2. Pissed off a Vanderbilt grad and former Democrat and now Republican senator from Louisiana.
What the hell are y’all doing? Do any of yall have a lick of brains? Dammit, now I have to fix this shite show. I think I’ll go beat Pawls arse by feeding the truth to the media like Thamel and Stephen A Smith. You bunch of dumbasses better get your shite together.”

Agreed. Even fairly presents some things LSU has been involved in over the last several years that are questionable in a lot of people's opinions.
