Quote
"You can say farewell to college football next fall," Edwards, a Democrat, said in a televised address.

"Student-athletes across the state would be ineligible to play next semester," Edwards said (via NOLA.com). "I don't say this to scare you. But I am going to be honest with you." ...

Political crap, but such tactics will certainly get the attention of the voters!

Looks like the drop in oil prices is pinching Louisiana again!

Sounds like political suicide.

Guess he's seen enough of Louisiana.  He'll be retired in Miami soon!

A cheap, stupid political lie that will backfire on this liberal Democrat governor. So typical and has been used for 50 years with the gloom & doom politics. Bet he backs off real quick.

CNS will use this to his advantage on the recruiting trail.

I wonder if the Governor knows what all the ingredients are in their Jambalaya. Those Cajuns take their LSU football very serious down there, just saying. Wink

I heard on the news today that he is trying to get the highest tax hike in the history of the state.  So he threatens them with no football if you don't give me all of your money.  Typical politician.

This is a quote from a poster on another board talking about this same topic... Interesting but hopefully this won't cause this thread to go political...

Quote
That the previous governor slashed taxes (on corporations, not individuals), cut higher education funding by nearly 40 percent and left the state nearly $1.8 billion in debt seems to be missing from this conversation.

 Professors have been fired, degree  programs cut leaving some seniors with no avenue to complete them.  Public schools got raped, too. Teachers haven't had a raise in five years.
 Hell, he even cut hospice funding for the poorest of the poor.

 The state is reneging on promised scholarship payments for high performing students. These kids busted ass in high school to earn them because it was the only way many families can afford to send them to school, but that doesn't get your attention.

 Football finally does.

 Yet another Republican governor follows Governor  Norquist's radical anti-tax ideas and leaves his state in financial hell.
