“The chairman of the board advised me they were going to make a change and asked me to contact Scott,” Dardenne says. “That was the extent of my involvement. I was simply the conduit.”

Woodward's deep connections with LA politicians is one of the reasons I'm most excited about his hire.

It was my man J Dubs that got things rolling though. We should pool some funds and buy him a new diamond stud.

So really, you all should be eating out the chairman’s arse.

Dardenne did some legal work for me. He deserves the shite he gets politically imho, so I'm not knighting for him. But one thing you should never doubt, is his love for LSU and for LSU athletics. He's a diehard. True purple and gold. Just like Carville and many others I disagree with on politics. But I NEVER doubt their love for LSU whatever else divides us.

Sounds like I owe James Williams a heartfelt apology.

James M. Williams, hats off.

Sigma Chi runs deep in Baton Rouge. Dardenne wrote a history of the original Sigma Chi house at LSU, House of the Southern Woods.

I think Woodward was contacted earlier than this.

Everyone is missing an important part of the story:

quote:

Technically, it is not the role of the Board of Supervisors to recruit, hire or fire university administrators like the athletics director. Those duties are under the purview of the president, F. King Alexander, who was hired by and reports to the board. Dardenne says he cannot speak to what role the board—as opposed to the president—played in the change in leadership over the athletics department. “I don’t know what level of involvement King had,” Dardenne says. “My initial contact came from the chair of the board that a change was imminent. He made it pretty clear that this was going to happen and I was interested in making this happen.”


The "emperor" has no clothes. Look for another change coming soon.

Jay Dardenne is a political snake! He goes whichever way the wind is blowing!
