No. No. No.

Let’s be elite in Football and Baseball, build up women’s softball and basketball. Piss on men’s basketball.

I agree, look at the results. I can promise you that LSUBB does not get near the CASH most schools do.

I can bet you that the next coach will have a nest, or the job will not be filled.

Let’s get football straight first and then we’ll talk about basketball.

Look i get it. I was a season ticket holder after the ULL Nit game when he called timeout. Looked at my then wife and said “we are getting season tickets next year.” Haven’t had them since he left not only because of that but if we got someone who could excite me to spend the money, bring in players and win…. I’d get them again. Even when I can only go to 4 or 5 games a year. Wades last year I missed every home game because of work.

SmoothBrain, LSU baseball is one of the few self sufficient baseball programs in college. Baseball receives significantly less revenue share than women’s basketball who do lose 9+M a year. Jay raises the majority of the money for baseball himself
