New LSU athletic director sets the stage for game-changing coaching hire
Florida v LSU | Tyler Kaufman/GettyImagesThe LSU Football head coaching search is barely a week old, but has already beena bumpy ride. Louisiana governor Jeff Landry called out athletic director Scott Woodward, who has since parted ways with the school. LSU named a new university president, Wade Rousse, earlier this week, and he is reportedly set to remove the interim tag from interim AD Verge Ausberry.
