Should ULL be allowed to host a CIT game with the current budget crisis?

It costs $30k plus to host a game. How likely is it that they'll cover their costs? Should the state intervene since they subsidize their athletics?

If they push it theyll sell it out.

The Cajundome is not owned by the state, so that might save them some money.

Yes.
What's another $30k down the shitter.
I say tourneys for everyone not named LSU.

Not really related to the subject, but I just read on their website that Antonio Gates and Vincent Jackson are on the selection committee for the CIT.
Thought that was pretty random and funny.

Is ULL crying to every media outlet that will listen twice a week about how they can't work within their budget?

You can't nitpick them at that level.
They area allowed to transfer 5% or so of the general fund to athletics. They usually do a rake of around $5 mill. If you allow them to do that, they should spend it as they like.
BTW, they are also playing WCIT home games. Big win today.

I think every luxury a school has that doesn't self fund, needs to be the first things cut when it comes to educational cuts...
No state funds need to be diverted to keep (examples) McNeese volleyball, UNO golf, or ULL baseball....
Title Ix needs to be looked at as well

Well maybe other universities wouldn't be in such bad shape if the LSU system wasn't such a drain on the state (taxpayers money)
