re: Link to LA Governor threatening to shutdown college football

quote:

---

These schools spend an insane amount of money on football and it looks particularly bad for schools that are in dire straits financially like LSU.

---

The school spends zero dollars on football. The state spends zero dollars on LSU football. The school and state spend zero dollars on LSU sports entirely.

I mean, frick, even the city of Tuscaloosa pays for police presence at Alabama football games.

This has nothing to do with LSU sports and everything to do with trashy Louisiana politics and how poorly our higher institutions are funded.

Many of the campuses in Louisiana should be shuttered, permanently. The black college system should be disbanded and any programs of worth folded into successful institutions. TOPS should be treated as a loan, to be paid back if the student flunks.
