Not only do tuff decisions need to be made by the administration but tuff ones need to be made by said fans. We as fans need to not complain so much and get involved more. I know a whole bunch of people on this and other boards that buy season tickets and help out with projects as they are able. However there are many people who do not much more than Rant and Rave about UL. Those people need to get off their perverbial soap boxes and start by buying season tickets to at least ONE UL sport. They should put some of their busy day aside as many of us do and help out with projects and volunteer days! FAU and FIU have HUGE budgets compared to UL. UL's budget will soon be over 10 million and possibly 12 million depending on a few slowly materializing donations. This is still about half of what FAU has and some other Belt schools are in the mid Teens(millions). We are playing catch up right now but HOW can you catch up if the schools UL is trying to catch up to are having recuring monies each year that is 25-100% more than what UL has coming in?
Remember it is the "Sum of it Parts" that will strengthen UL. Please become a part of the whole in the solution, and not a finger pointer!!!!
