No other school has this kind of a blanket arrangement.
If this is all that is happening I wouln't have a problem. The academic side shouldn't be guaranteed a certain amount of money or percentage each year. However it seemed to me to also be saying that the amount contributed was going to go down substantially and only be for buildings or "special projects".

The ancient Greeks were somehow able to teach in the great outdoors under the trees. It is not buildings that make a University great but the quality of the teachers and researchers it is able to attract, which of course has a lot to do with the salaries paid.

And don't believe for an instance that this will force F. King into running a meaner, leaner budget in which he will cut out all waste. That would require firing way too many bueracrat administrators. No, what it means is that tuition will continue to rise until only the rich and those willing to put the rest of their life under debt, can come here.

F King is on his way out anyway. He just may not know it yet.

All this tribalism is so fricking stupid
This isn't tribalism. It is budgets fighting for the all mighty dollar. As real as it gets in a society where money is everything.

A little over dramatic, don’t you think?
What part isn't true? That the University didn't give birth to the athletics or that Woodward isn't turning against them by saying he will only support the rest of the University if he feels like it?

For fricks sake

Scott did not say he would help fund the rest of the university if he felt like it. He said they would no longer allow for the university to include AD funding in their budget. They must submit requests for projects needing funding.

You fricking drama queen.

Wasn't F King a Jindal guy?


Yes.

What does he have to do with JBE?


JBE has publicly refused to fire F King and said he is staying put where he is as LSU President.

In doing that, he took complete ownership of King, lock, stock and barrel.

The athletic department would not exist without the university. If you want to decouple the two go ahead and start paying the players.

This is such a bullshite response. If you don’t do what I want then you have to do this other thing I want.

How old are you? If you’re a leftist, disregard. Your response makes sense.

This can be said about every program in the country. How many other athletic departments support the academic side of their university?

Jesus......... when non-athlete students start generating $150 million per year in revenue showcasing their liberal arts and history degrees then the academics can have legit beef. It’s not that hard to understand.

This can’t be said enough. When you idiots going to LSU on the lowered academic standards required for TOPS that are graduating with your GS and Comm degrees start pulling in what athletics does, then we can talk. Until then, STFU.
