I was all for Tate leaving because he was continuing F King’s disaster. Has James Dalton fixed this yet?

you sure?

Because it’s ’a lot’ not ‘alot’

Maybe standards were always low, but then again my masters degree is from LSU, too.

the pendulum swung pretty far this past fall. with all of the bad optics at the beginning of the semester (shown earlier), the shootings on campus during home games, and a football player housing people wanted for murder and several weapons in his dorm, LSU sure has had some bad PR.

Who knows what will happen but with Landry in office and him having his personally selected president/chancellor, you'd think he would help the pendulum swing back towards middle.

Once you get a reputation, people will choose to go elsewhere. Don't think that the other SEC schools aren't taking advantage. Rebounding from that and getting kids to come back doesn't happen overnight.

Damn. I apologize, didn't know I would discuss grammar and simple spelling mistakes on a message board with a pseudo-intellectual.

Is this the thread where people pretend LSU used to have robust academic prerequisites to admission?
