Where are you getting $18M? The practice facility?

You know it was paid for by private donors for that specific project?

Yes, but still $18,000,000 that could have been invested anywhere in the enterprise. Was it worth it?

The donors already knew that.

People gave to TAF specifically for the practice facility. So no. It couldn’t have.

The ROI, specifically post season results & success are greater in gymnastics than other LSU sports.

They gave a few bucks. But most was money that could have been invested in anything. Football, baseball, basketball...

You don't seem to understand how private donations work-- at all.

I understand. Some donations, some loans that could have gone anywhere.

Was it worth it?

dude, give it a break ... go back to Cow Island, Esther, or wherever you're from. You sound like a broken record as you've asked "was it worth it" 4x's in 5 posts. Speaking of LSU and money, how did those millions of $$$ spent on Asst FB coaches work out for the program ? Not to good based on our overall record and post season success.

I know. The $18,000,000 that could have been spent to redo our 40 year old, revenue generating basketball arena.
