Several years ago (Tubverville was Auburn's coach) the state of Alabama threatened to shut down high school football over financial concerns.
It was just a threat to get new taxes passed.
The taxes passed and football was saved.
1. ^ This guy gets it.
2. The people in here talking about LSU shutting down the athletic program to save money are terribly uninformed. LSU athletics GIVES MONEY BACK TO THE UNIVERSITY ANNUALLY.
3. Anyone who believes the state would shut down the entire system is a special kind of stupid. The smaller state schools would be the first to go.

I'm interested to see if JBE shows up to the basketball game Saturday and if they show him on the scoreboard like they have been doing. The last couple home games since he took over office he went to the game and he was put on the video screen. The reaction was kind of quiet.
