A day after the whirlwind news of a shakeup in the LSU athletic department, the school officially announced that Texas A&M athletic director Scott Woodward is coming back to his hometown to take the same position in Baton Rouge.

Woodward, an alumnus of Catholic High and LSU, said he was “returning home” in a joint news release with the university, adding that it was “incredibly humbling and exciting” to join LSU and that the Tigers athletic programs “will win championships and we will do it the right way.”
