LaTech is closer to SMU and Memphis than Tulane.
UL would be a good regional rival for Tulane.
Both schools are really good at basketball/football/baseball.
Aside from any talk of markets or institutional fit La Tech has to double their budget to get within spitting distance of the bottom of the AAC currently. That's not reasonable.
Oh yeah I agree. It’s bad. Worst in FBS almost.
Maybe there’s someone more qualified to talk about it on here.
But I know LaTech doesn’t have any athletic student fees. Also has the lowest % of institutional support.
Quote:Percent of Budget Subsidized in 2019
La Tech- 43.92%
So Miss- 44.85%
Marshall- 47.78%
FAU - 57.03%
Louisiana- 57.22%
App St- 57.97%
Ga St- 60.39%
UTSA- 60.87%
Old Dominion- 61.3%
UAB- 63.32%
Charlotte- 68%
North Texas 68.95%
I think there is room to grow if LaTech got a fee and admin put money up.
