Most people don't understand the real issue. We could shut down our athletic department and still face budget cuts at LSU. One has little to do with the other.

The state needs to revamp the entire budget system so education and health don't get the axe every time we have shortfalls. Everything else is protected from cuts.

We'd actually face MORE cuts since the Ath. Department GIVES money to the university in the form of astronomical auxiliary fees, $1 ticket surcharge, TAF scholarships (remember the Cox Building was renovated with TAF $$), oh and while their at it...they usually throw in 1-5 million annually to the general fund.
