When did UF get troll posters on the Rant? I miss the good ol' days of ATPB.

MSU has operated their athletic department in the black since Jackie Sherrill's days. We actually make the school money.

Arkansas is 100% self-sufficient and has been for as long as I can remember. Probably longer than I've been living.

So does every SEC school operate to be self sufficient? I guess living in Florida, it makes me sick that the highest paid public employee is Jimbo Fisher. Taxpayer money should not be going to that shitty university's athletic budget.

Any Athletic Departments that have athletes recieving Pell Grants (which includes every SEC school)are using "public funds"

Arkansas doesn't charge an "athletics fee" to its students either
They're really getting a bargain.

A&M took a $9,586 subsidy
That would only buy 1/18th of a quarterback at Auburn. Hardly even worth mentioning.

in fact LSU athletics makes huge donations back to the academic side.
And has been doing so since the 80s.
