LSU Coaches Pay Raised

In the scheme of a $28 Billion state budget, it may not be a big percentage, but it all adds up. A wide range of LSU coaches got pay raises yesterday.

The basketball coach got a $300 thousand kick, and several assistant football coaches got raises. See the story in The (Baton Rouge) Advocate.

Athletic Director Joe Alleva said the money came from self-generated athletic funds. Alleva came to LSU from Duke University, where he was intimately involved in the famous Duke Lacrosse Frame back in 2006.
