I'm not sure whether this has been discussed on the board, but did anyone else see Karl's close-up at the LSU game in Syracuse yesterday? I'm not upset he was there; I would have been there alson if my son was playing, but did he have to wear his gold LSU shirt to cheer on the Tiggers?
Yes, a few brought it up in threads. It probably deserves its own thread. Need to list all of his Ruston business establishments.Originally Posted by counselingdawg
Just let it go.
Nope
For some reason, I have no problem with him wearing LSU colors to cheer for his son. If they believed LSU was the best place for him to go, that's cool with me. I am more irritated by LaTech grads who have no tie to LSU dressing all up in purple/gold on the same day when their alma mater is playing a home game. I don't understand that.
Have you considered those Dogs?
He does need a new phone though.
THIS^^^^^^
Exactly. His son is playing. I have no problem with it. And I doubt anybody would have a problem with it if his son were playing for any other team. But since it's LSU, everybody got to get their panties in a wad. Considering what Karl has done for our Alma matter, I will give him 100% pass on this.
Karl is supporting his son and that comes before anything trivial like LA Tech's grudge against lsu. While I don't like seeing him in the purple and piss I am glad that he is supporting his son's decision to attend that university and play football for them.
I think it's a good thing that Karl's son didn't come to Tech. If he did not get the playing time Karl expected, it would further strain a tumultuous relationship.
I have great respect for what Malone has done for Louisiana Tech. My statement was not a jab. Just stating fact.
Back when I was a student at Tech, and before I became turned off by LSU’s arrogance along with the arrogance of its fan with no ties to LSU, I used to say a good weekend was any weekend when Tech, LSU, and the Saints won. Now, being older and wiser, a good weekend is any weekend Tech and the Saints win.
I have no problem with a parent being proud of where his or her kid goes to school and supporting them. Maybe it’s a matter of “My son goes to LSU, but my money goes to Louisiana Tech” for Karl Malone.

When I came to Tech from out of state, I was shocked at the amount of purple and gold worn around campus. If that's still going on that is far more disturbing to me than Malone wearing it to a game that his son is playing in.
The TV announcers at least mentioned that Karl played for La Tech, good to get mentioned in a positive light during LSU game.
