My local sports bar is only airing and having an LSU watch party for the women's game. It's as if LSU and Tennessee men are playing a game in a virtual vacuum
This is a world I never thought I would live in.
2006 was a lot of fun when both the men and women went to the Final Four.

re: Where would you rank Woodward amongst LSU AD’s all time?
Posted by LSUGrad9295 on 2/11/26 at 11:39 am to BowDownToLSU
Those of you who thought Skip was a bad AD are just stupid, wrong, or both.
Yeah, he raised ticket prices, but he had to in order to compete.
His first act as AD was to go up and down the athletic building and get rid of Joe Dean's cronies and he trimmed a lot of that fat. Dean left a mess and Skip cleaned it up.
He went to all of the coaches and asked them what they needed to be successful and he by and large got it for them. Many coaches have said that Skip was the best AD they worked for at LSU.
He cared for women's sports and wanted to help them. Dean hated women's sports.
Skip knew enough "money" people from baseball to help him raise funds for the general athletic department.
I have no idea what Skip did to some of you such that you think he was a bad AD

I don't either...but SC beat them like it was personal the other day.

But seeing South Carolina go in dry on Tennessee for a full 40 minutes the other day was a bit disturbing.

I want to believe...but why would he leave NC State, where he has basically said he gets all the resources he needs there?

Without exaggeration, that would have bought you about 40 tickets to the men's game tonight (a guy in another thread said he saw tix for that game at $3 on SeatGeek)

I wouldn't be surprised if there is a Friday night game this week....I can see Saturday's game being moved. Even though it is still a few days out, the weather guys are pretty confident there will be rain Saturday

its the flipping of the hand. i get it.... I dont mind the fist bump but the hand flipping is annoying
The headphone up to one ear in one hand while mixing with the other hand is peak dj douchery.

Again, you are overplaying a shtick that really isn't that funny to begin with.

it usually seems to mean they floated their name out there as a possible candidate and the response was less than enthusiastic.
1000%.
The press release should have read "Since it appears I will only get 2.1% of the vote, I am going to go ahead and back out now"

They RUN RULED Illinois (a terrible team 0 - 5) but Illinois out hit them 7 - 5. You won't win games like that in the SEC.
Well it is a damned good thing Illinois isn't in the SEC, right?
These are the most asinine takes. It assumes the team will play the next 50 games the same exact way they played the first 6, with zero improvement or progression.
