If you win the $1.3 billion jackpot, how would you use some of the money to improve your school?

I would tear down Coleman Coliseum and build a new basketball arena on the river

all the white sloots football recruits could handle. WillyB/practice facility donation also likely.

Considering I'm unable to buy Powerball tickets in Alabama nor do I care to drive to a state that does. I'm not playing Powerball.

But hypothetically, to answer your question, hell no. First thing I would do is get as far away from this state as possible.

Probably move to Monaco and start an F1 or Rally racing team or help fund one.

Set up an independent trust account that awards scholarships to individuals.

Unless you are getting your name on a building, it is a total waste to donate money to a school's general fund.

I'd give Harvey Updyke $1,000,000 and let him run wild.

Create a non profit trust that provided scholarships and chair funding to improve academic standings at all 14 SEC schools.

Better to give smaller amounts each year than allow any president or AD to go on a spending binge that would only escalate everybody else and be short lived in duration after the money has been spent.

I'd join IPTAY and throw out thousands of dollars to Clemson recruits who I know would screw up and get caught doing hookers and blow and talk to the media afterwards.

Real answer, I'd buy all the warehouses around Willy B and tear them down and continue improving the surrounding tailgating areas. It's come a long way in the past few years, but some areas are still awful.

I would ensure that Nick did not go to Texas/Indy/Cleveland/NYG/Philly/ND/etc. I would also buy as much officially licensed Bama gear from Walmarks as is humanly possible.

Maybe bribe Jay Jacobs to sign Gus to an outrageously expensive extension.

I think $180k is the magic number to recruits.

Put it this way, LSU wouldn't have to worry about recruiting anymore.

I would be a 5* Bagman, first and foremost.

Large gift to the Athletic Dept. Large gifts/endowments to the Business School, Mass Communications, and Physics Dept's.
