If athletics takes a step backwards, Im done.
Very, very few places have the opportunity that Lafayette has. We have seen this reflected in the numerous business related stories about Lafayettes economy.
I have any number of things that I can do on a Saturday afternoon in the fall, and it will cost me a hel.l of alot less.
The internet banter is fun, definitely......but I can get alot more accomplished without it.
We screw this up....I guarantee I wont be the only one bailing out.
"Athletics is going to lose the biggest supporter we have," Walker said of Authement's departure. "It's going to be a tremendous loss to athletics, regardless of what people have said or thought. He has done everything humanly possible to support athletics."
<<<Anyone want to explain that amazing Baldwin hire? That set us back 12 years.>>>>>>>
Academics is always #1 priority....ALWAYS!
unfortunately in this day and age you are judged by your athletic programs.
Thank heavens we have The Lotiefs and Robe! I believe they are so entrenched in this community that they have decided to put up with NO, NADA, NONE, ZERO, funding.
NO WAY in this community...this vibrant, healthy oasis, that we should be the second to lowest funded athletic program in the nation.
We know these boards are monitered by Martin Hall. Take heed cats...make the best possible decision for this community, or this ship will sink.
I will be on the first life boat waving goodbye to all you guys.
