Winning programs should be rewarded.

I say take some of the allocation for football and give it to the programs that are winning with less- baseball in this case.

Jay wants a new indoor facility- give him the funds.

Paying $67m this year for the roster and coaches on football. All to get a less than superb product. Take $ away until it’s shown to be earned on the field.

Allocate money based off of on field success not hype.

So we can fall further behind in football... sounds like a solid plan!

Where do I sign up?

If $67m this year doesn’t get it done; how much more does the program need?

Maybe we should take a few million from
Baseball and give to the fb program.

Kelly needs more $$

The donors putting up the $ will determine which sport gets it. If Kelly continues to suck, his kitty will dwindle for sure.

Football makes the money. Baseball wins and breaks even. Nothing baseball does is gonna change the lack of profit. Universities are a business.

More curious about the 67 million number. Kelly makes the most at 10. Other staff MAY push it to 20-25 max. Putting the roster at 40 plus. Don't buy it. But am open to proof.

Making money is rewarded and no matter how you spin it, Football will always make more money than baseball.

He’s wrong. LSU spent $18 million on this years roster.

You take it away from women's basketball. A roster of ~12 women's basketball players should not get more revenue sharing than ~40 baseball players. It's ridiculous

BK has won 33 games in 3 and 1 quarter years.I don’t like the fact that he hasn’t been able to put all 3 phases of the team together either but for fans to say he’s not a good coach is BS.If this season goes completely south you will probably get your wish and he will be gone.

I agree. Maybe then we can finally win a national championship in baseball.

You can sink all of the money into football that you want. Until Kelly gets off his lazy arse and makes some sound, well informed coaching hires the results aren’t going to change.
