It is plus the money stays in state. Though, I bet when you bring in a big out of state school that the difference in profit isnt that different after you look at hotels, shopping, etc...
True. But LSU is probably more worried about paying an in state cupcake $150,000 less than a just as impressive out of sate cupcake.
SOS should still be pretty good. AT Washington will add to our credibility, and we are playing AT Georgia (with hardly any drop-off next year) and Bama (those top recruiting classes are going to finally make an impact, IMO). Florida will be no slouch if Tebow sticks around, and Auburn should be gelling by then after a season in the new systems and a young team. I'm thinking we're looking at playing four top-fifteen teams and at least one surprise (Washington? Ole Miss? Miss State?) top-25 team.
