Who generated more money for LSU?




Okokok. Good point!

But, he also got a free education. To pay every athlete would be enormous, even if it was "only" $100.00 a month. AND, remember, no matter where you work, your company makes money on you. If you make $50,000.00 a year, your company is making much more than that off your work. They have to, to cover all their other expenses and to make some type of profit. Someone already pointed out that the vast majority of colleges are not making a profit. Think about how much money it costs for the equipment, trainers, coaches, stadium maintenance not to mention hwo much a road game costs for transportation, hotels, food, etc.

Hey...I don't know the answer. When I was playing, I felt the same as you do. Now that I am a much more objective observer....I'm not so sure.

Putting mildly. The great BAMA program still has to use 5.5 million of UNIVERISTY or institutional funding. AS IN they are -5.5 million at the end of the year.
