But But But Sumlin is so overpaid at $5 million a year!! That is like one fourth the left over spending cash! How will we ever afford it?!?!
I don't think you understand what overpaid means. Nobody said you couldn't afford it. When you compare Sumlin's salary to others who have accomplished more (way more), then it makes him overpaid. Your school paid on "potential" and it isn't paying off. Go ahead and show me your profit number to argue, but the profit could be higher if you weren't overpaying. By your logic, you should give him a raise since you can afford it. Please do.

LSU constantly turns a profit and as others have pointed out, is one of a handful of schools that have self sustainable athletic departments.
ETA - LSU's AD gives money BACK to the school as well. From a strictly athletics perspective, it sucks.

UF's AD has given back about $70 mil to the University since 1990 including 6.4M in 2014.

A&M is dropping 485 million on Kyle alone. We're still in the the black by 23 million.

Yep, Auburn spent a shite ton on upgrades last year. Glad we did it.

Yeah, I know new athletic dorms and renovating the football operations center are next in line at LSU

Those figures come from the year Auburn played for the national championship in 2013 and I know Auburn racked up a lot of expenses taking a huge group of people to the BCS championship game in Los Angeles. Something A&M will never have to worry about

I didn't expect Auburn to be so poor with the recent successes they've had in one sport lately.

Why is AU that deep in the hole? I know the Auburn basketball arena is new. I heard AU is an official Olympic training site. So is that where the money went?

Built a new kitchen for athletes. Built the new dorms. Spending a lot on upgrades.

Gotta spend money to make money, my friend. 1st rule of business.

Bammers expenses for traveling to the Sugar Bowl last year was almost 3 million dollars if I remember correctly. Auburn's expenses traveling to Los Angeles would probably be double that. That would acciunt for almost half the deficit by itself.
You can also add paying Chizik over a million dollars for his buyout, buying out Tony Barbee, and hiring Bruce Pearl
All those things happened in same year
