Athletic Budget 2026 and beyond

[CajunNation]

Sometimes, there is someone like CajunT who provides information about a particular topic that gives much needed context and clarity. I've learned quite a lot over the years and changed my view about a lot of people and things.

I think this whole budget issue is a prime example of something that needs as much explanation and context because it has and will determine the current and future path of Ragin Cajun athletics.

We will figure this out.

All we have to do is increase the price of tailgating every year. That will fix things.

I understand.

"WE"

Who? Everybody!

That was fun!

Learn from the pros: guess who won their division anyway.....

Nov 23, 2024 — The Mariners only have $16 million or so to spend this offseason, which doesn't seem like enough to get done all they need to get done.

Once again, we figure out how to embarrass ourselves in the eyes of Louisiana residents.

And now the ignorant perception of “it’s all because of that new stadium”. While that may not be the truth, our university leaders’ screwup now allow that mentality to creep in.

If Jamie is a leader, he goes to the media and cameras and sets the record straight.

He was too nice and loose with everything.

Comments are brutal. What are the other Universities in our state total cuts? I would have to imagine it is similar to ours.
Although, the Stadium renovation had nothing to do with the budget.
Was it funded by private donations and bonds?

Boy, Dr Savoie sure bailed in tough times.
How about Dr Savoie give up that president emeritus salary for doing nothing.

Here's the problem, though: Do you think anyone amongst UL leadership is going to step up and tell the true story and correct those folks running with that narrative?

If the past is any indication, the answer is NO. Martin Hall has long held the belief they don't owe the public any explanation for anything. And I'm sure that's not unlike the leadership of many other higher ed academia types.
