LSU’s athletic director search committee opted to keep six of the first batch of applicants under consideration on Friday after weeding out candidates and LU’s AD Jeff Barber is one of them.
The search committee will meet again once another pool of applicants comes in, to review the candidates in greater detail and comparatively.
But wee should expect some pretty good movement in the next 30 days or so as more high-profile candidates wait until late in the process to become applicants so they can stay out of the spotlight for now.
Barber was approved by the search committee with little or no discussion.
