All the legislature has to do is stop the general fund transfer and all of these La State football teams will be in trouble (except, obviously, LSU).
They need to move to student fees. It's more predictable and accountable.
ULL ought to lead the way as they probably could replace their general fund transfer with a fee no problem, considering their enrollment (SELU too).

We would like to have a student assessed fee. However, unlike many other states, this has to pass a student vote. With current rising tuition costs, not sure it something like that would get approved. I believe something for improvements was approved a short time ago, but academic and athletic facilities share the extra revenues from it.

As for ULL leading the way to eliminate taking the general fund transfer, don't see it happening. Why? Because it would automatically put us at a disadvantage with not only conference mates, but as well LA Tech and ULM if they continue with the allowance transfer.
