So if we pay the coach top dollar and the staff top dollar, we still need to pay the players top dollar?
I don’t think they can afford to go cheap on the player budget, but they certainly don’t have to outspend everyone either. They just need to be in the ballpark. There’s a good chance that ballpark involved spending more on WBB than baseball regardless of whether that’s “fair”.

I'd bet that you won't find a single school who is regularly top 10 in baseball, WBB, softball, and gymnastics going forward. Do you really want to pay the market rate for each and be a #10-25 program for each? Or would you rather sacrifice some so you can be #1 in others?
I think LSU has the right coaches in place in baseball, WBB, and gymnastics to compete for national titles without having to outspend everyone else. That may allow them to have a competitive budget for softball as well. I love all 4 sports, so I hope one doesn’t have to be sacrificed, but I suspect it would be softball if they are forced to choose.
