I have been told by someone with connections to the LSU athletic department that it is likely that Bama spends more money in Louisiana recruiting than LSU spends in Louisiana. If true, that is pretty fascinating.



not that shocking. it costs alot more to send a bama assistant to Baton Rouge or New Orleans than it does to send an LSU assistant

Exactly. Every time this discussion comes up it eventually comes up that Tennessee's recruiting budget drawfs almost everyone else, and has even under Dooley when they didn't recruit worth shite. They have no local talent base.

This is really simple. If the recruits are far away, it costs you more money to fly to see them and more money to fly their family in to see you.

I would much rather see every surplus penny LSU FB makes go towards facilities before a single one goes to increasing the recruiting budget.
