So you are saying it's nothing more than $$ in WBB? Kim brings value to LSU WBB, LSU Sports, LSU the university, Baton Rouge, and the state of Louisiana. And she brings value to increased interest in WBB in all of college WBB. She was partially responsible with ESPN's deal with WBB. We all know every school loses $$ in WBB, including LSU due to costs. She brings value to WBB in more ways than we can imagine. After the Final 4 last year, WBB gained a ton of attention and LSU was in the middle of it. LSU was the cinderella story, the unlikely NC. The first College GameDay WBB was at LSU. Increased student enrollment have shattered records the past couple years. There is no doubt that success of LSU sports and multiple NC's helped with that. Don't you think the AD is beyond thrilled hiring Kim?

Did you have an original thought or did you rip-off everything that was stated about Nick Saban at Alabama?
Do I know she adds “value”? Yes. Do I think WBB adds value to the bottom line at LSU? Not unless they raise ticket prices. Gymnastics packs the house as well and has for years yet here we are.
My contention is how can we add more value ie help the sport pay for itself, which is what I hinted at and why I said go get a coach Yo or other coach making less to help bring costs down when she does retire.
