Yes because the real culprit is revenue share, everyone is losing $20 million in revenue. And it’s going to be every single year

Athletic programs tend to use most of their revenue on a yearly basis minus a few million or so which means schools will now have to find $20 million in additional revenue or spend $20 million less and lose the arms race

This is why you are going to start seeing things like ads on Jersey


Yep.

LSU fans have never heard the old adage about not shooting the messenger. They obviously don’t want to address the facts in that article.

Do you have a job besides updating this board on LSU athletics? Serious question

The LSU AD contradicts what LSU fans are saying here.

That's his job.

Think of it this way. Todd Graves is worth $22 billion. If LSU gets in a bind and needs, say, $22 million, that is 0.1% of Graves' net worth.

Whether he gives the $22 million or not, LSU can operate aggressively in the market knowing they have plenty of financial backing if stuff goes sideways. Not just from Graves, but Spaht, Flores, Gordon, etc.

My buddy at A&M says it's the same thing over there and I'm sure it's similar at all of the major CFB programs.

But you still have to operate outside of the red. Alberts has cleaned up the mess that Bjork left, and now the AD is profitable. Just because you have the money doesn't mean you should spend it.

Billionaires don't become billionaires by being fiscally irresponsible.

So much of what LSU fans have claimed the last few months is contradicted by the AD in this article. I wonder who is correct?


You mean the guy whose chief responsibility is raising funds for the athletic department? I wonder why he would make such a statement, and then permit it to be published to thousands of prospective donors.

It just wouldn’t feel like a new day on the SECr without captlsudalton starting another thread about his “favorite” school, LSU.

I know you are trying really hard to prove you know so much about LSU so we will accept you as a fan. The real problem is we don't allow people that are married to their cousins to join. Unfortunately for you this stipulation bans you for life.

LSU might want to stop spending so much on womens sports. Must suck being so poor.
