    People _____ed about the quality of the product on the field and DEMANDED better. Well, "better" requires top-knotch people with a vision in charge and that takes MONEY. Since our ag department hasn't yet mastered the money tree thingy and since it's rare that top-knotch people will work for peanuts, we need to put the money up or shut up.

    I'm glad we're putting the money up because that's the only way you convince those who write the invites that we're serious.
    We are also look like ULM south with fan support 8 wins won't draw people in like it use to I can promise you that. So what you do beg the same people to dig deeper or lower the entry point for causal fans . Im not paid to be the AD so idk nore do I know the finances but I can tell you we are going to be hit by a few million dollar deficit.

    Well, it's one thing to gripe about those who don't show up. I understand the frustration. It's quite another thing to gripe about those who have LISTENED to the fans and have taken the proper steps to build a serious program.

    Fans whined about the dinosaur. Fans whined about toothpick. Fans whined when Hud lost the locker room and wasn't running a tight ship.

    Well, WTF are you going to whine about now?

    Nothing worth building happens overnight, and it's never cheap, but if the committment is there, it will happen and everyone will be wanting to be a part of the success. Of that I'm certain.

    I say stop the _____ing and second-guessing unless you've got all the answers though I'm betting those who complain the most have the fewest answers.

    Screw the students. They should have to buy season tickets like the rest of us.

    You have no clue what you are talking about, as usual.

    Are we complaining? We're paying and coming. We're concerned about why there's less and less general support. Yes you can say screw the guy who isn't there, but that's not gonna get him in.

    If I was Maggard I'd do a serious sample of people who used to come, and they've got records, to see why they're not coming.

    I bet the average fan is just like me, and you, and every other dinging swick here. Track the money you spend over a year's time and you'll find you ____ away far, far, more than you think on stupid stuff that you don't need. Very few people are disciplined enough not to waste.

    It just drives me crazy to demand a better product on the field and then scream to high heaven because you "gotta pay to park". For the love of Jesus H. Christ, this ____ costs money. Building facilities, hiring top-quality coaches who not only will put a top-quality product on the field, they won't embarrass us with NCAA penalities and dog-and-pony locker room shows, costs money.

    You're worried about the deficit, that's fine. But do you want a better product? Are you concerned that the window of oppourtunity to separate ourselves from all the other state schools not named LSU might be closing?

    If not, then maybe we should have kept Scott Farmer, Coach Tootpick and numerous others because lord knows they didn't cost us much.

    Hire the best, hire PROFESSIONALS and give them the tools to do their jobs and the money will take care of itself.

    People who put out the money can't even give tickets away to one that will attend. It's going downhill at a frantic pace. What is being done right now is a wholesale fail. Heads in the sand.
