re: In future elections for Louisiana governor, it will be necessary to answer this question….

JBE did not threaten LSU Football at all. He simply stated the truth, once, that it would impact LSU Football if LSU were to cancel Summer School which they were considering doing. A large number of players use Summer School to stay eligible.
JBE was and is nothing but an LSU fan and longtime season ticket holder, tickets he bought long before he got into politics.

No one gets EVERYTHING they ask for nor would JJ is he went to some other college.
re: LSU MBB has two top tier players and a really good supporting cast

The comparisons being made here are between Nov/2024 and Nov/2025. In every category, LSU looks far superior this fall as compared to last fall.
The Fla Ty/Boston/Ft Worth/NO trips in late Nov and early Dec are a step up in competition to who we are playing now.

1. Only 7 turnovers was impressive. This team seems to handle the ball better than our previous three teams. At least so far.
2. We improved from G1 to G2. Effective coaching.
3. Crowd was so lethargic and sparse, it is really disheartening.
4. Dr. Rousse made a brief appearance.

re: How many National Titles does Jay Johnson win at LSU?
Posted by GeorgeWest on 11/10/25 at 4:35 pm to jcole4lsu
Assuming he stays healthy, more than 8.
LSU should give revenue sharing ONLY to football, MBB, WBB, and baseball. NIL $$$ can go to other sports as donors designate.
Do NOT give less to WBB. That sport is drawing more positive national attention to LSU than any other these days. Our baseball MIGHT draw as much support as WBB, but WBB is a bigger draw nationwide than college baseball.

re: We can all agree CBK didn't deserve a $100M contract, but would you take a smaller buyout?
Posted by GeorgeWest on 11/10/25 at 4:30 pm to mdomingue
I'd settle for half ($25-30 mil) NOW and end all ties to LSU. AND I would require LSU to buy my house in BR. :-)
re: LSU men's basketball vs. UNO tonight in the PMAC
Posted by GeorgeWest on 11/10/25 at 11:55 am to kingbob
I expect it to be about a 4-6 point LSU win. UNO this year is better than many of the dregs we play in OOC games.

Complete waste of NIL $$.
re: Did anyone else watch LSU women destroy SLU last night?

Sports at LSU mostly lose money. Football makes a buttload and MBB makes some. EVERY OTHER SPORT loses millions including baseball.
WBB is about to enter a new media contract and our WBB program, which gets almost nothing from ESPN/ABS will start getting several million. PLUS the NCAA Ty will now share revenue with teams as they advance in the NCAA Ty. If LSU continues as an Elite Eight team or even better, LSUWBB will get big money for that.
Revenue-wise, WBB in the SEC and NCAA is on a big rise due to tv ratings and interest.

re: Men’s Basketball game National Anthem

In MBB, we sing the National Anthem about 15 minutes prior to tipoff. In WBB, it is more like 10 minutes before tipoff.

If I were scheduling LSUWBB, I would schedule 3 real opponents and some good midmajors. But I cannot argue with Kim's success.
I think SLU had some players missing, out sick.

re: Is Verge being set up?
Posted by GeorgeWest on 11/6/25 at 11:43 am to LaLadyinTx
I think that, if the BOS/Rousse like how Verge does the legwork for hiring a new HC, they will give Verge and 2-3 year contract as AD.

Posted by GeorgeWest on 11/6/25 at 11:32 am to cajuntiger1010
I despise Jeff Landry, but I am willing to give this new regime (Rousse-Dalton--Verge) a chance at least. I have two degrees from LSU and season tickets to 4 sports at LSU. LSU is my alma mater and my team. I am not giving up on them.

LSU shot 70% from the floor. There were NOT many o rebound opportunities for LSU.

No one, I repeat, no one at LSU stole any money from a children's hospital.

re: Did I read the story right
Posted by GeorgeWest on 11/5/25 at 5:33 pm to Tammany Tom
Until Verge signs a contract, he is NOT really our regular AD, IMO. But he is NOT an Interim AD anymore.
I look for Dr. Rousse to give Verge a short-term contract, maybe 2 years or even 3, to see how he works out.

re: Verge just said no chance they’re hiring Saban.
Posted by GeorgeWest on 11/4/25 at 4:25 pm to MrWalkingMan
You had to be really deluded to think that 74-year-old Nick Saban was going to return to Portal/NIL coaching.
I think it is less than 50-50 we can get Lane Kiffin either. He should stay at Ole Miss for his career. Expectations are so much lower there than LSU or UF.
Just my guesses, but maybe Dillingham or Drinkwitz.

I will give them a chance to do well even though I am more than skeptical about Landry's involvement.
