Started at $35mm, went to $40mm, now it’s $50mm. By the time of the game it’ll be $60mm

Incorrect. Not even a Top3 donor.

You wouldn’t even know the name of LSU’s top 2 donors. Most lsu fans aren’t even aware.


I just know he has something to do with the largest private shipbuilder in the country.

Louisiana is 19th in the US in GDP. The average household income is irrelevant because the average household isn’t funding a football roster. There are plenty of wealthy people in Louisiana and they only have one program to support

Only because LSU had to sign 63 players. People acting like LSU signed a ton of high level players is laughable.

No one except LSU and its donors know what they spent. Not sure why some folks pretend to know.

Those are the media estimates. LSU has the most expensive roster in CFB this year.

From the stats I’ve seen, Bama’s is valued at $38-42M. Stop downplaying.
