That will not be LM's undoing. There is a sufficient waiting list for LSU tickets to carry ticket sales for many years to come.

Miles undoing or any coach for that matter, will the fact that his salary composition is largely dependent on donations to a booster organization such as TAF.

LSU (state of LA) only makes up a small portion of LM's salary. I'd guess around 10-15%. I'm sure someone could look that up. If donations to TAF decline to the point that his salary cannot be maintained, that will be the undoing.

It won't be ticket sales barring a complete and total collapse, it will be donations to the booster organization. BTW, this applies to any large school w/ a high dollar coach, not just LSU.

You are correct. Just because they have a lot of money doesn't mean TAF higher ups are not big fans. They are upset about these past two years like much of us. They just might not be as rash.

Let LSU not sell all their tickets for the Alamo Bowl or the Liberty Bowl next year and things will change.
