Without a doubt that played a huge role into the response and ongoing federal case. I am laughing that he cited a halftime comment of Lane Kiffin as basis for lack of institutional control what a clown world we are living in. His major proof for LOIC at time was a halftime joke.

I understand Sankey and the SEC subsequently changed their rules, and I’m not disputing that Sankey opposed Bediako’s eligibility. Sure, he opposed it, but look at the outcome and compare the level of effort and escalation in the two cases.

Alabama actually rostered and played a former NBA G League professional in FIVE regular-season games after he signed a two-way NBA contract with the Spurs. No conference sanctions whatsoever.

Meanwhile, LSU never played either former NFL player and ultimately complied with the SEC’s demands.

Yet the SEC has gone so far as to file a federal lawsuit against one of its founding members and continues arguing that expulsion remains a very real possibility.

Explain how that’s remotely proportionate.

There’s a massive difference between having the authority to enforce conference rules and exercising that authority reasonably and proportionately.

You can defend the rule change all day long. What you haven’t explained is why LSU’s conduct warrants even contemplating the nuclear option of expulsion when Alabama actually put a former professional athlete on the court five times without a single conference sanction.

Almost dead last in SEC punting stats.

Coach Chris has done an outstanding job developing the punting game and punt coverage units at Tulane. His attention to detail has been second to none, particularly when it comes to lane discipline and directional punting, pinning returners to one side of the field and making life much easier for the coverage unit.

You have to remember, a punt return TD isn’t just about the returner’s ability. It’s about tackling, pursuit angles, and having your coverage unit in the proper position to make a play.

Under Coach Chris, those types of coverage breakdowns simply don’t happen. His special teams units are fundamentally sound, disciplined, and exceptionally well coached. The man has been a godsend.

I’d argue that particular punt return doesn’t go much of anywhere with Coach Chris on the sideline. That’s the difference an elite special teams coordinator makes.

Now you are onto something our kicking and punting game both could use some improvement. Coach Chris can recruit & develop with the best of them just imagine if he had an LSU Q Zip on instead of Tulane.

I never will forget the fake punt that he put in for Bama week years back. It’s one thing to install it and practice it but entirely different thing to know when to call it.

Coach Chris Forestier wasting absolutely ZERO time making his presence felt Uptown.

Coach Chris Forestier wasting absolutely no time making his presence felt upon being elevated as special teams coordinator at Tulane.

After years of grinding his way through the coaching profession, the local BR product & LSU alum has finally gotten his biggest opportunity yet to run the show at Tulane as the Special Teams Coordinator, and he already is making his impact felt in the national spotlight.

William Hudlow is as New Orleans as it gets. He attended Holy Name for elementary school, Jesuit for high school, and is now punting for the Green Wave at Tulane.

Hudlow has been named to Ray’s 8 in back to back weeks and is averaging 47.04 yards per punt, which currently ranks 7th nationally.

Coach Chris has earned this opportunity the long way too. He started at the bottom as a graduate assistant at LSU. He continued to develop his special teams craft at Houston and Texas, and now Tulane has handed him the keys to the entire special teams.

Pretty damn cool seeing a young LSU alum grind his way to the top of the coaching ladder and already have this kind of success.

There’s only one career move left for Coach Christopher. Bring the Wolf of West Lakeshore back home to Baton Rouge as the Special Teams Coordinator of the Fightin’ Tigers of Louisiana State University.

Landon Carission is be the greatest red-zone QB specialist in the galaxy. I don't need a quarterback controversy. Lane just needs to get LSU inside the 10, dim the lights in Tiger Stadium, pipe in the strobe lights and Star Wars music and send in the Administrator of Jigga City.

Brodon Carision is such a frat star. I love the high energy post game Lando suit. He needs to walk down victory hill in his Brodon suit. The perm is here to stay. This guido can play.

I must admit the movie Congo hits different before we play a big game. I highly recommend watching Congo to get hyped. It has desperately needed to do sequel and the sequel is cuming out this weekend in Oxford when the 800 pound gorilla strolls into town.

Mathew Leavitt had back spasms earlier this week but has now been upgraded on the injury report to questionable. Lane sent him to get his back worked fixed at the ole Asian rub and tug on Coursey. Those little giggly Thai ladies are the cure. Highly recommend if your back gets stiff.

Mathew Leavitt is going to spread the good news this weekend. Trinidad is fixing to get another bad batch of tonsillitis after our defense gets done with him.

That wood had been Mathew’s evil brother Brandon. He is a Mathew Leavitt.
