It really is amazing how stupid some of you are. Sometimes I wonder how people like OP make it in life being so dumb.

Go ahead and list them. If you are including the current coach, just remember that he is 16-60. That's not on the fans.

Who? None of McMahon ,Wade ,Johnny ,Dale or Brady are considered "technical" coaches. So are you talking about pre Dale or this a Trent Johnson post?

The revenue report that came out last month shows the MBB team in the black despite how crappy it is.

The women’s team lost $7m despite success.


Translation: it doesn’t matter from a revenue standpoint if the team is successful they still turn a profit from SEC revenue.


Let McMahon go at his contract expiration.

Insanity. The LSU athletic administration has a responsibility to utilize sports to enhance the student experience. Imagine 4 more years of a morgue versus an energized student body filling the PMAC. Screw McMahon, there is simply no reason to be this bad. I was a fan of his, and we cant even dribble for the love of God.

By several you mean like, maybe 1?

Also it’s never been more clear that Wade impregnated your McInflatable brunette.

With NIL and the portal , a solid hire can rebuild and make the tourny in year 1. Save the money.

The hell it doesn’t. We have a 2.5MM profit and are terrible. Schools like bama and Tennessee profit $8MM-15MM. The basketball program can be a big money maker if LSU cared at all.

I wonder why college baseball doesn't have a huge TV contract like football and men's basketball do?

Did realize sport itself could have emotions and passions? Always learn something new here.

But no one has to suffer, just don't watch if you don't like. If you chose to suffer you of course always can.

Title thread says LSU men’s basketball operates at a profit despite being bad with little attendance. And your idea is to shut it down?

I think it is a conspiracy and they are massaging the numbers. A team that has full arenas almost every home game isn't operating at a $7 million loss while a team that can't fill an eighth of the arena is making a profit.
