that old geezer in New Orleans left to LSU? Somewhere in the neighborhood of $25 million? HEre's what should be done: demolish the fieldhouse and build a giant multipurpose facility for women's gynmastics, volleyball, indoor tennis, and indoor track.

Here's an idea...how about set up some academic scholarships. Or did the guy specify he wants it to go to athletics?

How about fixing the sewer system that is supposed to burst any day now.

How about we take care of some of the dilapidated buildings on campus?

I would also be all up for remodeling/destroying Middleton.

How about investing it at a return of 5% a year, which will provide salaries for a handful of top-rank professors and fund full scholarships for quite a few students, year-in and year-out, in perpetuity.

Or, we could build an indoor track facility.

How about a kick-arse sound system in TS so we can pump in mega-pop and hip hop hits from 1994?

seems to me a good bit of that money for the sewer system can be tied into the athletic department as support for tiger stadium, pmac, bernie moore track stadium, alex box, etc..........
