If the current governor would be pushing for more money they’d be behind that. I don’t care that he’s talking about it, it’s just very annoying that he’s so wrong. How can he not see it? As far as having no affect on our hiring procedures, I think that’s naive. It’s not directly in his wheelhouse, but LSU Football is unofficially a very political entity. The governor should care as it’s one of the most public displays of LA. Also, not necessarily against buying people out, but not making a splash OC hire was kind of deflating. I still thought the whole purpose of hiring the grizzled HC was to navigate the volatility of hot (mostly younger) coordinators. I’ve accepted that E might do good and am in a holding pattern, but it was still a blasé hire.
I didn't even know jbes party affiliation. I wasn't arguing against salaries or buyouts last week or prior. Everyone did argue that Oeaux doesnt deserve one. Completely different argument. you guys? Is that like you people. Get your generalizations straight. This board hates all administration and politicians involved with lsu. Always have. Always will. And deservedly so.
I don’t agree with the Saban CEO getting paid 30 million thing. He wouldn’t be a CEO he would be a manager of a certain department. The CEO would be the chancellor.
I agree with you I don't think he could lead a group of equally talented people which is a key component of executive leadership.
