Um, what's wrong with this picture?
Further proof that LSU has morphed into a complete "football school," the fans attending our home basketball games don't even seem to know the new head coach's name. Hey geniuses...It's Trent JOHNSON!
You'd think if they were going through the trouble of making a poster in an effort to attract the attention of the ESPN cameras during the LSU/Xavier game, they'd use the magic Google machine to check the coach's name or something. Or maybe Trent Richardson is the name of the team trainer of something and his cousins are at the game? I would maybe hope that that's the case.
UPDATE: Apparently, there was some high school kid in attendance at the game last night who runs very fast with a football in his hands whose name is Trent Richardson. Thanks to those who took the time to inform my "ignorant," "stupid," and "embarrassing" self of this fact in the comments. From here on out, I promise to devote more of my useless time as a not "real" American who has betrayed his Louisiana roots for big city life by keeping closer tabs on the whereabouts of teenage athletes.
And just for the record, I'm not the only one guilty of such an egregious crime.
As you were.

Trent Richardson is the number one recruited running back in the country who "committed" to Bama in the summer but was pissed that Bama' asst. coach left for Tennessee, so he' still taking visits. LSU wants him. Everybody does. Apparently so does the douche holding the sign. He was on campus at LSU this weekend and goes to visit Tennessee next weekend. Saban is probably currently sending visitors to suck his cock and lure him back.
Maybe if you used the "magic google machine" and actually followed LSU athletics at a level higher than poseur, you would know that Trent Richardson is a recruit LSU football is currently pursuing who was at the game. It appears the fan you mock is actually much more LSU savvy than you. Damn you are stupid and an embarassment to LSU.
Addendum: it took me all of two seconds to google LSU and "trent richardson".
Trent Richardson is Parade magazine's national running back of the year. He's from the Pensacola, FL area (where I hail from, sadly enough) and is currently on an official visit at LSU. He is verbally committed to Alabama but has also visited Florida and Florida State.

That's my guess, though.
Trent Richardson is the number one high school running back in the nation. He was visiting LSU this weekend. I understand how you didn't know who he was - he only has 31,400 entries in the magic Google machine.

Ummmm, CB, Trent Richardson is a highly rated football recruit (#2 running back in the country.) This was a big recruiting weekend, as several recruits were taking official visits to LSU, Richardson among them.
Unfortunately, Richardson has verbally committed to Alabama, so it's a long shot that he would end up at LSU. Your comment about LSU being a complete football school is still valid, but it's because the fans are making signs for football recruits at basketball games, not because they don't know the BB coach's name.
@joshua...for the record, i actually did use the magic google machine to search the name trent richardson, and quickly discovered that he'd committed to Alabama, which led me to assume, "why would he be on a recruiting visit to LSU?"
and if anything is stupid and embarassing, it's your knowledge of the day to day whereabouts of a high school kid who happens to be a good athlete. not to mention the fact that you still come to this site when you profess to loathe me after i wrote a satirical LSU season preview that assaulted your hyper-delicate LSU fan sensibilities. get a fucking life dude.
I have a life. It's quite nice. Occassionally it involves Best Stop boudain and other things Louisianan.
I don't loathe you. I'm amused by you. Some of your writing is so ignorant that I think sometimes this whole Cajun Boy identity is just some persona. Whatever the case, some of the stupid things your write keep me entertained and for that I thank you.
Joshua, I would think that any proud "Louisianan" would know how to properly spell "boudin." I only went to Tulane for two years but I did learn that during my time there. Or maybe I'm just ignorant like CB as well.
Hey joshua....
Only a true poser would spell the word "poseur".
