Guess what the football team did the year before?
So you think a single data point refutes my claim? And you haven't even considered LSU's strategic initiatives vis-a-vis expanding the student body during that same timeframe? I'm sorry, but your claim is the one that is BS.

The idea that football programs expand student bodies is 100% myth. None of you can produce anything other than anecdotal evidence in support of the claim.
The truth is that student body expansions have more proximal causes, such as the strategic actions of universities to recruit out-of-state students. Football success helps improve the university's brand, TRUE. That makes strategic initiatives easier, TRUE. But other actions are necessary to entice students from the coasts to attend a deep south school. Alabama is doing those things. LSU is not.

Please tell me what got me to LSU besides the football team and TOPS?
Because no I didn’t consider anything LSU did to recruit students besides having a football team and TOPS
