08:20 AM ET 06.11 | Forgive LSU fans for getting a little ahead of themselves. LSU Board of Supervisors athletic council chairman Stanley Jacobs shot down the possibility on Friday of current NCAA president and former LSU chancellor Mark Emmert returning to Baton Rouge. Emmert, who served as chancellor from 1999-2004, has considered returning to LSU to take a new job combining the responsibilities of LSU system president and chancellor, according to a Thursday tweet. ... Jacobs said Emmert's name likely came up because he "is so well liked and loved," but there's no truth behind the rumor. "He's making, I believe, 1.8 million as head of the NCAA, probably one of the most prestigious positions in the country," Jacobs said. "He's not coming back to LSU."
