Actually they aren't. Read the article

Notably, the University of Alabama -- LSU's archrival -- does not disclose financial information for any university or athletic fundraising. Nonprofit organizations like foundations are generally required to fill out tax forms which disclose contributions, assets and salaries. But Alabama does not do so, citing its affiliation with a governmental entity. The school also refused to comply with a public-records request and did not respond to questions from The Advocate.

The article does not mention how much athletics acts as a proxy for academics at LSU. Go see how much $$ athletics has given to academics in the past 6 years. It is MILLIONS of dollars.

Reading must be even harder for employees of the Advocate, since the information they requested is all freely available on the UA website.
