Agreed. Although I still enjoy mlb on tv. I struggle with MiLB on tv, but plenty of options to go to minor league parks. Leaving college baseball with the same inferior experience to match its players.

College baseball sucks and historically has. Hence it being a wise move to stop throwing money at such a shitty product.
Straight forward stuff.

Why so obsessed with LSU in an AU thread?
From Huff post 2013:
quote:
Perhaps the gold standard in college baseball is Louisiana State University (LSU), which has yielded an estimated $2 million profit in some seasons. LSU's success has encouraged other college teams around the country to invest in their programs, often improving their facilities and providing a better fan experience.

ok
LSU baseball has been pretty good. maybe you're just upset with the teams auburn has fielded quote:
nce it being a wise move to stop throwing money at such a shitty product.
call your AD and tell him to shut it down.
every year about this time the rant gets posts just like yours from fans of schools with shitty baseball teams.
"NOBODY CARES ABOUT BASEBALL!!" "BASEBALL SUCKS!!" "RABBLE RABBLE RABBLE!!"
but watch if auburn miraculously makes it to Omaha one day and see how the mood changes.

Then why did the one program, making the most profit in NCAA athletics, add a baseball program in 2009 (Oregon)?
And it's already been pretty successful.

Don't care, make profit. Now go back to bashing your "real" rival.

Alabama Women's rowing made a profit. True story.

It was only a few hundred in the positive, but surprising. I doubt they ever do it again with a new boat house on the books now.

You care about 40 million in profits worth in football. About 2.5 in baketball and some unknown deficit amount in baseball.
No. LSU baseball is a revenue sport.

Curious, what are Auburn's debt numbers compared to Alabama, Tennessee, etc.?
