Lane Kiffin gets introduce as the new LSU Football Coach

By Matt Delaney on December 2, 2025 in , ,

LSU finally landed their football coach, Lane Kiffin, probably the biggest media conference in LSU history in the South Stadium Conference Room. After Verge Ausberry went and hired Lane Kiffin, Verge got up and welcomed Lane to the podium. Lane was talking about his experience at Ole Miss, saying it was the best 6 years of his life, and went on to say as he left Oxford to hop on the plane to Baton Rouge, he had to call up a Police Officer he knew to follow him to the airport. Lane said the fans were harassing him verbally and could have ran him off the road getting to the airport with his son.

Lane, family and coaches arrived at the BTR Airport, greeted by Verge Ausberry, and the LSU Board of Supervisors, and started driving to the LSU Campus, they passed by Tiger Stadium and Lane Kiffin starts channeling Ed Orgeron, rolling down his window saying Geaux Tigers to the fans outside, he pulls out phone and calls Ed Orgeron and says I am channeling you Ed, they shared a laugh, and Lane says this is amazing, LSU Tiger Stadium and LSU Campus, Ed Orgeron told him you are in the best place in America.
Lane went on to explain how difficult it was to leave Ole Miss, very difficult, but he kept saying this place is different, LSU is different. As he passed Tiger Stadium he said it clicked, he made the right decision. Welcome to Baton Rouge Lane Kiffin, family and coaches…. Geaux Tigers.

Christmas comes early in Baton Rouge, LSU Tigers hire Lane Kiffin as their football coach….

By Matt Delaney on November 30, 2025 in ,
LSU to promise Lane Kiffin $115 million in landmark coaching ...

LSU’s offer to Lane Kiffin is reportedly a seven-year, $90-$100 million deal with a significant promise for NIL (Name, Image, and Likeness) investments of over $25 million for the roster. The contract is expected to be heavily incentive-laden, with bonuses tied to team performance, such as reaching bowl games or winning championships, as well as a sliding scale for buyouts based on performance.

LSU Football has finally landed the big fish, the hottest coach in CFB is Lane Kiffin, pretty amazing work by the LSU Board with the AD Verge Ausbury hiring Lane Kiffin, with the guidance of Nick Saban. Lane Kiffin has said Pete Carroll and Nick Saban has consulted with him on his decision leaving the Ole Miss Rebels, to choose the LSU Tigers, for more money and NIL Deals, and recruiting 5 star players from the state of Louisiana. Louisiana has the most 5 star football players per capita than any state in America. When Nick Saban was coaching Alabama, he would go and hand pick any 5 star players he wanted to come play at Alabama. Now Lane Kiffin who is a great recruiter will dive deep into the 5 star football players in Louisiana. Paul Finebaum has already said LSU will be a contender for the National Championship next year with the hiring of Lane Kiffin.

The Ole Miss Keith Carter is not letting Lane Kiffin have a meeting with the players to say goodbye. Looks like Lane will be taking the whole offense football staff with him to LSU. LSU finally had an offense again, this past year with Brian Kelly LSU offense was so bad, 5 interceptions vs Florida and LSU can only score 20 points…. With a good offense that’s easy 35 points, Lane Kiffin will change that.

There is a meltdown in Oxford, Ms right now, it’s getting really bad in Oxford. It’s been reported by Matt Barrie of ESPN that if Lane Kiffin is threatening to take the whole coaching staff if he doesn’t get to coach the Ole Miss Rebels thru the playoffs. Everyone knows LSU is the better job and he could win multiple football championships. Welcome to the Lane Train, LSU Football Fans, it’s gonna be a fun run for the next 10 years. Lane Kiffin could be LSU last football 🏈 coach.
Welcome Lane Kiffin, family and staff to Baton Rouge, LSU LSU LSU.

A letter from Scott Woodward

By Matt Delaney on October 30, 2025 in

Dear Tiger Nation:

It is with a heavy heart but also with my typical optimism, that today is my last day serving as your Director of Athletics.

I grew up a few miles from campus, attended Catholic High School, and enrolled at the University that would change my life in 1981. My four years as a LSU student were among the greatest of my life. My career took me into government and public relations before the opportunity to return to my alma mater in 2000 to lead external affairs for the University. Being back on campus each and every day was a true honor. My journey would take me to Seattle and to College Station, before finally returning home in 2019, to LSU and to Baton Rouge.

Others can recap or opine on my tenure and on my decisions over the last six years as Director of Athletics, but I will not. Rather, I will focus on the absolute joy that LSU Athletics brings to our state’s residents and to the Baton Rouge community. I will cherish the incredible relationships I have built within the University community and beyond our campus borders. And I will fondly remember the national and SEC championships for the joy that they brought to our student-athletes, coaches, staff, campus community and our incredible fans.  

Our University will always hold a special place in my heart and I will never be too far from LSU. Nanette, Michael, Josh and I wish the Tigers nothing but the best.

Geaux Tigers!

Scott

From LSU AD Scott Woodward

By Matt Delaney on June 26, 2025 in

Dear LSU Nation:

As I watched our baseball team’s incredible run to the program’s eighth national championship in Omaha, I couldn’t help but reflect and be grateful for all of you.

All of our student-athletes, coaches and staff. All of our passionate and generous LSU fans and donors. Our incredible partners who believe in what we’re doing. Our state government leaders who encourage our institutional and athletics success. And all Louisianans who take pride in the state’s flagship university.

Sunday’s national title is the 53rd in LSU’s history, including the sixth since 2019. That athletic achievement has coincided with record-setting success in the classroom and community.

It’s all occurred through a challenging and transformative time in college sports.

But as Louisianans always do, we’ve answered the call and met the moment.

Each and every one of you are what makes this state and university great. You are what makes the LSU brand a powerful symbol of excellence and forward-thinking.

The 2025 baseball team’s motto perfectly embodies the LSU spirit: “Tough & Together.”

Together, there’s nothing we can’t accomplish.

Thank you, for all that you do.

Geaux Tigers!

LSU wins 10-6 over Little Rock, Big night for Frey, 5-5 Hernandez 2 homeruns, The Bear hits 2 run shot too, and Evan’s 12 strikeouts,

By Matt Delaney on June 3, 2025 in ,

Amazing comeback for LSU as they fell behind 5-1, Ethan Frye gave LSU the lead, 1-0 before the Trojans scored 5 runs. Most of the Trojans run production was in the 2nd inning, Cano, who had 14 RBI’s in 5 games in baton regionals, gets on base, comes around on a single by Chaplain, Martin scores, as well as Willbanks. We don’t know why the NCAA made LSU the visiting team again…Top of the 4th, LSU has bases loaded, Ethan Frey steps up bounces a double of the center wall and clears the bases, now it’s a 5-4 game. In the 6th inning LSU Hernandez steps up ties the game with a home run, Miliam lines a single bringing in Frey home to give LSU the lead 6-5, all this time Evan’s is on the mound striking out everything that moves…. At one point Evan’s struck out 8 Little Rock players, 8 in a roll… amazing. Evan’s finished with 12 strikeouts on the night. If Johnson would of started Evan’s, LSU would of kept the Trojans scoreless, just saying…

The hitting continues for LSU as Hernandez hits his 2nd home run of the game giving LSU a 7-5 lead. Top of the 9th brown gets on base, Jared Bear Jones comes up and cranks one out for 2 run blast, as LSU takes a 9-6 lead, same inning Hernandez still hitting the ball well, hits a single and brings in Stanfield, as LSU takes the lead 10-6. Eyanson already relieved Evan’s, pitches 2 innings as LSU closes out a real pesky bunch from Little Rock Arkansas…. Definitely we are glad to see them packing and going home, that Little Rock team was something else, just kept pecking away until LSU put them away. LSU off to the super regionals to take on West Virginia…. LSU came really close to getting knocked out of the tournament, let’s see if they go on to win it all now. With Frey, Jones and Hernandez swinging for the fences and Anderson, Eyanson, and Evan’s pitching really good, there’s not a team in the country that could beat LSU…

LSU gets upset by Little Rock, 10-4, final game setup tonight in Baton Rouge

By Matt Delaney on June 2, 2025 in ,

LSU gets upset by Little Rock, 10-4, final game setup tonight in Baton Rouge… what a devastating loss for the LSU baseball team. LSU had a 3-0 lead, and let Little Rock squeak back into the game, making it 3-2. Trojans Cano went 2-5, double, two run shot, and next inning, base loaded, hits a double and clears the basis. Cano had 5 RBI’s. Very upsetting loss if you are a LSU Fan… the good news after 5 games, Little Rock had no more pitchers left, they used them all.
LSU will probably use some relievers to start and they have Shores too, maybe they can bring in Eyanson for a few innings…. I think Little Rock is done today, it might be batting practice for LSU tonight, because the Trojans have no more arms to throw. Final game of the regionals starts tonight at 8pm central time.. Big production from Freshman Curiel tonight 3-4, scored 1 run, Hernandez and Miliam both went 2-3, they only produced 4 runs for LSU totaled… LSU better bring their bats tonight….or it’s gonna be lights out …. Holy smokes…. The big news of the weekend Vanderbilt no.1 RPI, which doesn’t matter, lost, Texas is gone too, upset by USTA of San Antonio….beat Texas again, Longhorns who hasn’t really beat anyone on the road this year, funny how Texas lost at home… lol. Florida lost too, Kentucky is gone, Georgia is gone, the major powerhouses for the SEC are done except Arkansas, Tennessee and LSU. We can’t call Auburn a powerhouse in baseball, actually maybe just basketball and they still lost this year. The SEC had 13 teams in, actually Arkansas and Auburn punch their Super Regional tickets. Tennessee, Ole Miss, Oklahoma and LSU have to close out today to advance to the Super Regionals, Oklahoma probably has the biggest task taking on North Carolina in Chapel Hill…. Geaux Tigers

LSU Tigers 7 Little Rock 0, Eyanson blanks the Trojans.

By Matt Delaney on May 31, 2025 in

LSU Tigers shutout the Little Rock Trojans, Junior right-hander Anthony Eyanson fired 7.2 scoreless innings Friday night, and second baseman Daniel Dickinson blasted two home runs as top-ranked LSU posted a 7-0 shutout victory over Little Rock in Game 1 of the NCAA Baton Rouge Regional in Alex Box Stadium, Skip Bertman Field. Eyanson struck out 7 as this game had 3 rain delays and didn’t start until 7pm.
LSU will face Dallas Baptist today. Dallas Baptist beat Rhode Island late last night 6-2 early in the morning…The Patriots get to face LSU ace pitcher Nate Anderson, probably the best pitcher in College Baseball…. Anderson usually averages 12 strikeouts a game….

LSU’S NUSSMEIER AND SWINSON EARN SEC PLAYER OF WEEK HONORS

By Matt Delaney on September 23, 2024 in

BATON ROUGE – LSU quarterback Garrett Nussmeier and defensive end Bradyn Swinson have been recognized as SEC Players of the Week for their performance in Saturday’s 34-17 win over UCLA in Tiger Stadium. 

Nussmeier, a junior from Lake Charles, earned SEC Offensive Player of the Week accolades, while Swinson was named SEC Defensive Lineman of the Week. For Swinson, it’s the second consecutive week he’s earned conference honors. Last week, Swinson was tabbed as SEC Defensive Player of the Week for his play in the win over South Carolina.

Against UCLA, Nussmeier completed 32-of-44 passes for 352 yards and three TDs in the victory. He guided the Tigers on back-to-back scoring drives of 96 and 92-yards to open the second half, extending the LSU lead to 31-17.

Nussmeier guided the Tigers to points on six of their eight possessions, including all three in the second half when LSU outscored the Bruins, 17-0. 

With the game tied at 17-17 at halftime, Nussmeier went 18-of-24 for 188 yards and a 35-yard TD pass to Caden Durham. He finished the game with a career-best 32 completions, which ties for the third-most in LSU single-game history.

Through four games, Nussmeier leads the nation in completions (113) and he’s No. 2 in passing touchdowns (13).

Swinson was the catalyst for an LSU defense that held UCLA to only five first downs and 65 total yards in the second half. Swinson had five tackles, forced a fumble and recorded a pair of sacks in the LSU victory.

As a unit, LSU tallied five sacks for the second straight game and limited UCLA to only 14 rushing yards for the contest. Swinson currently leads the nation in sack yards (-45) and ranks No. 2 in total sacks (5).
