College football $$$$ happened. This is a prime example of a program getting absolutely gutted due to NIL pouring onto the scene. The NCAA abandoned small schools like Tech in the name of money and it is disgusting.

Gone are the days of small schools being able to compete and knock off big schools every once in a while. Yes, SMU poured a ton of money into the program (compared to tech) and it shows.


This is the sad truth unfortunately. When they get a stud player that develops, more than likely another program will throw more money at them and they're likely gone. It's fricked up

Tre Harris set a school record for TD’s in a game at Ole Miss in his first game.

They tampered, lured our best player away with money and we are trying to get some young guys seasoned quickly to fill the void. Inevitably if those guys step up, they’ll be poached too.

SMU pays their players a minimum of $36,000 per year.

We are a rural school with a borderline FCS budget who fought above their weight class for years. Those days are over. Louisiana Tech’s best days are certainly behind them.
