Holl says “There’s a long record of coaches supporting candidates for elected office in Louisiana and other states, and they have the right to do so. Senator Kennedy needs to stop fussing about other people’s political preferences and do his job,”.

Kennedy expressed concern that he doesn’t want to have to wonder whether a coach is a Democrat or a Republican, and says King’s decision to allow politics into the LSU football brand was unethical.

Cut 8 (10) “  happen” 

Holl countered, saying “It’s troubling that a United States Senator and attorney believes that college coaches should be denied their First Amendment rights.”
