Louisiana athletics operated at $8 million deficit during 2023 fiscal year

LSU football turned a $51 million profit ..

After all other sports are paid for, that profit was a little over $1 million

If a school like LSU can't turn a profit on sports that actually compete for and WIN national championships, then what the hell are we talking about here?

Are you sure, Arkansas State made what could be considered a splash hire, that splash hire had his best season in 3 years and finished 6-7 after a 2-10 and 3-9 season before. What do you think our attendance would be with an overall record of 11-26.

Oh, by the way, Butch Jones is making $825,000 per year at Arkansas State.

Just askin'?

Splash hires "must" be accompanied by winning to make a lasting fan impact.

1) Generate excitement,
2) Get fans at the games, (major ticket campaign and student awareness)
3) Give them a reason to come back.

If any one of those three are missing, you will have less than desired attendance.
