Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. The boosters all got their hat handed to them over the football fiasco this past year and figure there's little need to even attempt the same with any other sport any time soon.

Men's BB, women's BB, both in the tank.

FreeState nails it. CLM was not fired not because there was no money. He was kept on because King felt it would be a huge PR cluster frick to pay all that money, even though it would have been TAF money, at a time when the Legislature was raping universities across the street. Same thing with the women's BB. Fans want her gone, Alleva has gotten the word from King to simply let her contract run out next yr. As for JJ, do notice how Dale has not said one word. From several accounts, he's been working behind the scenes to protect his boy.

If no improvement, I can see changes next year in both. I just think LSU won't be trigger happy right now, especially with the way football was handled.

I don't think they feel like they got their asses handed to them, but I do think that they're pissed and are gonna let F King and his crew look like idiots with the program they're putting on the floor.
They ain't gonna do nothing until they get an apology.
