2016: Alden Report Released by University of Louisiana Athletics

[CajunJack55]

Again, why do they have to approve? Simply add a ticket fee as part of tuition and fees m.

Perhaps I'm mistaken, but I was under the impression that we already have a few in place for this exact thing.

Just for the record this is not the entire report. Also, I've been told that UL will retain the services of the consultants going forward.

Brother Brian, UL will retain the services of the consultants going forward. However, if Dr. Savoie does not follow there recommendations, they will pick up there toys and go home. Guaranteed!!

By UL system rule, student fees must be self imposed by vote. UL can't add a ticket fee, but it can simply stop letting students in free, charging either full price or a reduced price with ID.

Good luck getting them to attend if its no longer free.

Next move is his Mike, after that we will just have to wait. For me it's simple, if the same captain remains at the wheel the iceberg is straight ahead.

I'll cross that bridge when it gets here

I understand, enjoy it while you can because D-Day is coming sooner than later. The report clearly states these funds can't just be raised by supporters.

But, but, but... we always take great pride in stating that we are the cheapest University in the South!!! This would ruin everything!

They won't be the only ones picking up their toys. The fishing holes will be full of ex-Cajuns fans.

[CajunT]

Keep in mind, we're discussing the generation who overwhelmingly supports Bernie "Free $*!# " Sanders. Good luck getting them to attend if its no longer free.

Well, then they will find themselves sitting outside for major sporting events in the future in baseball, football, softball and basketball. If they are not giving a dime now, where does it hurt you? Notice, the report talks about season tickets revenue and not attendance. Free tickets only inflates your attendance numbers, it does nothing to increase your revenue.

You know how much money could have been saved if 2 years ago these clowns in charge would have just listened to a certain someone who almost verbatim said the same thing as Alden?

The ____ing hits keep coming!!

Bourbon and water under the bridge.....

One of the competitor's questionnaire mentioned misspelled words on the cajundome jumbotron. I'm glad that was mentioned because when I see that kind of stuff my blood boils. It's amateur and so embarrassing.

[jumboragncajun]

"Baseball has potential." .... GFY dude.

You're right. They already pay a ticket fee. That's why they get in "free." I think it's $100/yr. And to the average student who doesn't attend many games, it's no bargain.

CajunRebel, I look at the fees that I pay since I have one at UL now, two last year. What is it listed as, because nowhere have I seen a described ticket fee?
