Yea, that's what I thought. It's really not about how much they pay any WBB coach, you really just don't believe we should have a WBB program.........................at least not one that the university invests in. Man, just say that instead of trying to make some kind of stupid financial argument.

Well, usually the ones who are pissing money away on a program which has NEVER made a nickel and lost 4 MILLION dollars last year alone are the ones who need to justify an additional 2 1/2 MILION dollars. You don't normally have to justify NOT LOSING additional MILLIONS on the back of LSU Football and Men's Basketball.

Some of you who have short memories must not remember that LSU actually laid off support personnel and had very limited raises and I don't think any bonuses were given. Now these other programs and coaches have to sit and watch this overpaying of a Woman's Basketball Coach whose program will lose probably 6 million dollars this coming season.

This hire was to appease the Title IX crowd and the Title IX investigators. LSU simply is paying this Salary to hold Kim Mulkey up as a Trophy to say "LOOK HOW COMMITED LSU IS TO WOMEN's ATHLETICS & TITLE IX".

None of you who are so supportive of this overspending should say a word when Football Tickets increase to pay for all this.

So, now they're going to "lose six million dollars"?
