Where in the hell has all the money Dr. M has found and spent come from?

Authement has money stashed all over the place.

David Walker literally found a million bucks. It was newsworthy.

Since RCAF and Athletics are about as transparent as the Bayou Teche....it all makes sense...

I think Vic raises a good question. I’ve been asking this for a while. I see the legislative auditors reports for the past few years and it raises questions. I bring it up and someone says “yea, it’s more complicated with that” or something.

July 2020 to June 2021: $863,391 loss

July 2019 to June 2020: $5,980,700 loss

July 2018 to June 2019: $4,559,770 loss

In each year we have ~$16 million in “direct institutional support.” That’s the answer. Now you gotta find a definition for that i suppose

Nice job with the research Vic..

Yet more great research...

Spirited debate about money trees is no longer allowed here.

Something just does not add up and apparently we will never get to the bottom of it.

Is there any wonder why expenses remain greater than funds here . . . It appears to be a self inflicted matter . . .

There was not one post about a money tree or money trees in the affected posts. In fact not a si gle post about finances.

Only posts related to you getting misty eyed were affected.

One person”s trash is another person’s treasure. That does not change based upon your whim, or I guess it does.

Get funds over expenses, it is within your control . . .

Just curious: you brought up alot of points in the thread re:gameday experience and why you don’t attend football games.

Sounds like you don’t attend bc of an ax to grind - not bc the concessions are too long??

From 2020 numbers... https://www.facebook.com/groups/6860...9755080773254/

To me, look pretty broke on that list.
