LSU Athletics and Director of Athletics Scott Woodward have agreed to part ways effective immediately, the department announced Thursday. Woodward, a Baton Rouge native and LSU alumnus, began his tenure as Director of Athletics at his alma mater in April 2019. We thank Scott for the last six years of service as athletic director, said Scott Ballard, Board of Supervisors Chair.
