What about what I wrote you do not agree with?

1)These west teams came here so they saw a chance to pay us backby sending us out there. UCLA, Fresno St, Fullerton, USC and Irvine

2)We do have more fans that travel than anyone else maybe Texas is close. Seems to me they would want to take advantage of that byputting us in a bigger stadium.

3) There is no one even comes close to our yearly attendance.

4) They have said they would wrather a different team win each year if at all possible.

5)ESPN is not going to televise the UCLA regionals.

6)They do not like the stadium in Ohmaha having more fans for a given team than all the other teams combined.

7) They have made it hard for us to be able to watch them on TV by placing them out west. Our local TV stations can not go out there and telecast the games like they could if they where closer to home.

Idiotic statement. The committee people have way many more things to worry about than who went where in past years.

2)We do have more fans that travel than anyone else maybe Texas is close. Seems to me they would want to take advantage of that byputting us in a bigger stadium.

The committee also does not sit around drooling over how many fans LSU travels. Not a consideration.

3) There is no one even comes close to our yearly attendance.

SO? Regional sites were handed out based on merit. 15 hosts of 16 are top seeds. We did not deserve it

4) They have said they would wrather a different team win each year if at all possible.

LINK?

5)ESPN is not going to televise the UCLA regionals.

They picked 2 of the 16 to televise. Ours wasn't one. Oh well.

6)They do not like the stadium in Ohmaha having more fans for a given team than all the other teams combined.

Again, LINK?

7) They have made it hard for us to be able to watch them on TV by placing them out west. Our local TV stations can not go out there and telecast the games like they could if they where closer to home.

Sorry...the committee had 63 other teams to place beside LSU. Airplanes do go to LA if the TV people from around here want to go
So basically I think all of your points are crap, to answer your question.

And in fiscally lean times, the move from four regionals to two will add to costs for many teams. According to Sandoval, the NCAA provides no money for travel, housing or meals.

I have no idea where he got that from.

Linik to NCAA transportation policies
