Hey idiots who are saying we need SEC

Posting the dumbest thing in the history of this board is a major accomplishment, and you deserve the honor with this.

Explain how what I said was dumb. Its facts

No idiot. The obvious inference if you know what that even is... was that if Tulane can be like that, obviously lsu can be way better.

How'd Tulane do in those playoff games? Tulane will never be a CFP contender. Winning the G6 bid is the biggest accomplishment they'll ever achieve.

LSU is about WINNING championships.. Losing SEC revenue will hurt; not being in the SEC will hurt recruiting. LSU will not maintain an elite program as an independent. There's a reason only one school has been able to pull that off.

LSU cannot make it financially as an Independent.

IF we were to leave, our only option is the BIg10 and it is less than 50-50 they would take us.

Yup, Big Ten won't take us.

Tulane says hello. Consistent top 12ish playoff contender recently with virtually no backing like LSU. You guys are dumb. It can and will be done if we have to.

Since you asked…

Put down the crack pipe. Comparing Tulane to LSU in football is like comparing a local go-kart track to Formula 1 and acting like the lap times are the same.

Let's dismantle this absolute clown show of a take:

“Consistent Top 12ish Contender”: My guy, Tulane had a couple of decent years in the AAC against absolute nobodies while playing a schedule softer than baby’s shite. The second they step up in weight class, they get fed through a chipper. They aren't a “contender”; they are a trendy flash-in-the-pan that caught lightning in a bottle before Willie Fritz packed his bags and left for Houston.

“Virtually No Backing”: Tulane operates out of Yulman Stadium in front of 15,000 people—half of whom are visiting fans or local kids getting in free with a box of popcorn. LSU is a multi-million-dollar athletic behemoth driving the state economy with a national brand, a 100,000 plus seat fortress, and SEC-level resources. Comparing Tulane’s funding to ours is like comparing a lemonade stand to Goldman Sachs.

The “It Can Be Done” Delusion: You think you can just snap your fingers and replicate the SEC meat grinder in a private school bubble? Tulane’s historical ceiling is an afterthought in a hollowed-out conference. When LSU has a “down” year, we're still recruiting top-10 classes and playing in prime-time slots. When Tulane has a down year, nobody outside of Uptown New Orleans even remembers they have a football team.

You asked for facts. Here’s the only fact that matters: Tulane is a stepping-stone mid-major, and LSU is football royalty.

Why not? Based on what?

As the Offspring of Tulane and Newcombe Alums, it was quite possibly the most stupid economic move ever perpetrated by a University..The idiots that ran Tulane at the time had delusions of being an Ivy equivalent and major college football was an expensive afterthought. They never recovered
