re: Why hasn’t F King been fired yet?

LSU has no acceptable reason it can't be on par with a Georgia, Florida or any other state school. UGA and UF compete with GA Tech and FL State for state funds and should be at a competitive disadvantage. LSU is the clear flagship school for the state. It will take time to turn around the LSU brand, but it is possible with the right vision and leadership.

If we accept mediocrity, it enables bad leadership. FKing is not the answer. He follows the university "pack" a decade late. LSU needs a transformative leader that can change the culture and differentiate the school.

LSU is a state school, and its job is to educate its residents with an intent to improve the state. Unfortunately, the state does not foster job opportunities, and top tier talent often leaves for better job prospects. Louisiana needs to foster innovation and an entrepreneurial business environment to improve itself. State leadership contributes to university woes.

FKING needs to go.
