Many of you are missing the point here.

Last year when I posted that budget cuts to the university affect EVERY part of the university, including athletics, there were plenty of posters who went out of their way to point out how athletics was "self-sustaining" and wouldn't be affected... you know, stuff I already know.. and stuff that's just not true.

Here you go... tangible proof of univeristy-level cuts affecting athletics.

Again... no part of a university stands apart from the other, regardless of budgetary protocol.

Wait until we have to hire a new football coach, and we have to "save money" on that one. You'll love that.

I think the new coach will be at Les's salary or below. It'll be a PR nightmare to give Miles a large bonus to remain at LSU or pay an incoming coach 5M/year.

LSU is gutting entire departments, although athletics is self sufficient it'll be a disaster PR move to give Miles a 1M raise since LSU budget cuts have made national news.
