Does anybody actually give a shite about this? It's baseball. 75% of the teams in the SEC probably forget they have a team.

Maybe that’s why LSU baseball operates in the black and USCe in the red.
No, its because you picked a year in which LSU made the CWS finals and USC was horrific


We def make more money than USC, but its not that far off when USC is good

Feel free to post a year when SC baseball turned a profit. Any year will do.

Their stadium and all the others stadiums don’t have intimidators with all their national championships like one school does.

The intimidator needs to be retired. Doesn't look great and no one is intimidated by national championships from a decade ago. As for the ads I don't have a problem with them but they should have done them more tasteful like other schools. The white one color ads like below and what LSU has along the foul lines look better and cleaner.

Also the backstop looks shite.

We make money, they dont.
We have 1st class everything, if you think the players care if Tony's chacheres is on the out field fence the you're delusional.

There are only 2 coaches in the conference making less than $500k. Maybe only one. That's a lot of money to throw at someone coaching a sport they can't remember if they have or not.

If you can't contribute to the conversation, don't.

He probably picked that year because it was the last time someone wrote about it. If you want to blame someone for cherry picking, blame every SEC baseball beat writer.

maybe contrarian was the wrong word, I guess maybe what I meant is that you aren't ever able to stay out of the mud when you feel like wrasslin

I get what you're saying though, it doesn't give that clean look like vandy, ole miss, georgia or atm. But we do make good money. I think upgrades around the stadium could work better. Not a big fan of the bleachers for starters..

The players have first class everything which is what really matters but as far as stadiums go for fans it's probably top 5 or 6.

The new box pissed me off from the beginning.

The bleachers never made sense. Never. So if you are going to put the ugly gaudy ads everywhere, you have no excuse to go cheap on things like the bleachers and the damn tarp in center field

The ads had been on the fence at the old box for decades before the new stadium was built. In my opinion, the box would look weird without ads painted on the fence.

Well, Dellenger argued that the biggest reason is the premium seating. I don't really have any reason to not go with that.

I would say that the ads all around the stadium are an indicator of why we make more money than other programs, though. The supply of advertisers wanting to do business with LSU probably dwarfs other programs, meaning higher ad rates. Which means we're going to find more places to put ads.

I personally like clemeson's outfield seating.
