"Louisiana Gov. Jeff Landry told reporters Wednesday that LSU athletic director Scott Woodward won't be involved

in selecting the Tigers' new football coach, saying he'd let President Donald Trump do it before Woodward."

"Landry said the LSU Board of Supervisors will assemble a selection committee to find a new coach, but Woodward won't be a part of it if the governor has his way...'Maybe we'll let President Trump pick it,' Landry said. 'He loves winners.' "

Maybe DeSantis will let Trump pick the next U of Fl coach?

Because everything Drumpf touches dies. Let's not forget, he already managed to destroy an entire football league. (The USFL).

One day it just went away. tsf's "NFL monopoly" lawsuit was successful. He was then awarded $1 and the USFL was gone. The community investors lost their asses. A pattern that still continues today.

Commissioner Pete Rozelle’s son was in the courtroom when the verdict was announced. He pulled out his wallet and asked Trump if he wanted his money right then. 🤣
