Too bad LSU doesn't put as much emphasis on hiring a new president as it does on hiring a new football coach. It speaks volumes about what kind of university it is.

That’s who Jeff wants. However, during public comment the other day every person talked negatively about him. He’s done a good job in LC but people think he’s not experienced enough for the great TSAB.

Of course the McNeese crowd loves their president and think it’s great LSU wants him. Never thinking they could end up with a complete dolt as a replacement.

Who knows what hack we’ll get.

Hopefully everyone realizes that this guy will be picking our next president and will have his hands in the AD selection as well.

It’s what Huey would do. He as much said he would. I think I’ve heard elections matter.

Nobody in the state cares about our budget deficit now. All the focus is on the dysfunction in BR.

Sounds good!!!

He's for sure making a mess of things, but they're supposed to have a new president in place shortly. Rumor is it will be the current McNeese president who will likely hire a new ad immediately

So no national search for Prez? Lol

Let him keep opening his mouth. I love it. He doesn't know it but it is actually hurting their hiring process. LMAO. Hope they suck for years to come.

Woohoo

Cant do worse than we do on our own, lol

The Governor is calling a spade a spade. Good for him. Will say this about Wade Rousse, if he comes in second or third place for the LSU job, I'd highly recommend we pursue him as candidate for UL President. Dr. Rousse is on the record for using athletics to drive enrollment. He's an excellent leader/developer, has all the academic credentials and having known him can say he's a tireless worker. And he's from down the bayou.

While this sounds great, we truly need to have a complete reset.

This is bad news for La State fans/athletics and TBH, I'm here for it. It's a bad recipe for the Governor to get this involved and even worse if he's openly saying that the current AD (who from what I hear is a damn good AD) wont hire the coach. I expect him to be gone by the end of this fiscal year either on his own terms or fired. Regardless, any current sitting AD who has the experience to run an athletics department like LSU, will not want to touch that job. They will have to hire a lacky who will "get in line" and when that happens, it will be a disaster. Being an AD is WAY more than just hiring coaches. I wouldn't be surprised if they went after someone who will bend the knee with zero athletic administration experience.

He also said that taxpayers are paying for Kelly's buyout which is not correct. I'm not surprised that he wants to spin it that way, but that isn't how it works and if you're a sitting GOV, you would know that. If the taxpayers are paying for his buyout, pass a tax in Lafayette Parish to buyout Dez.

My worry is that GJL will listen to LSU Board and give us a lacky with no experience who will gut everything out of UL because you know LSU would do that in a heartbeat. Who would have thought that potentially UL's worst enemy will be one of our own.

What are you talking about. The freaking luckiest school in the country? That school reminds me of my sister in law, even when she falls on her azz in horse manure, she comes up smelling like a rose. And so does that school across the basin.
Just makes me sick to my stomach the amount of luck they have.

Agree, a reset from top to bottom. Just want to see our university grow and advance in every aspect.

Don’t blame me! I voted for Schroder!
