Is this for LSU's club soccer team? If so, who cares.

When did I say I didn't care about LSU? LSU's soccer program (for the guys at least) is horrible. They are mainly a girls soccer school.

shows what you know. LSU doesn't even have a men's soccer team. They keep saying htey'll get one, but they don't. Too bad because if you put the top five players from state on the team (that would make 20 players since they play 4 years in college), you'd have a team ready to compete nationally.
Just think of last year. Dwayne Jones and Jason Garey up top together. And that was just last year.

Yeh, keep asking them why they can't (won't) have men's soccer ... same ole lame b.s. about title IX, gotta reduce men's sports scholarships, etc.
So tell me, how can they have men's soccer at UCLA, Indiana, North Carolina, South Carolina, Penn State, Notre Dame, Kentucky, Virginia, Virginia Tech, Washington, Maryland, Michigan, etc. ?
Somethin aint right.

For every men's sport, there must be an equal women's sport, not necessarily the same one, just one for one. LSU's men have football, the girls get soccer. All other sports (I believe) are equal. Two years ago, Tulane was busted for some violation and as a result, they lost their men's cross country team.
Now, let me say this. I'm ALL for equality , but Title IX does nothing to improve women's. It's an outdated ruling that did no good in the first place, and honestly, still harms schools.

I thought advertising was a prohibited post on LAprepsoccer.... unless the rules don't apply to something promoting but not endorsed by LSU....

What everyone is doing right now is discussing LSU. There is a big difference between discussing and advertising.

Having gone through the same problem of trying to add a men's soccer program at another university, I can tell you that it is not about the number of sports, but about the number of scholarships offered. If you look at the sports offered, there are more women's sports than men's 9figure in volleyball, soccer, gymnastics, and other stuff like that were only women have teams). Since the football team has 80 scholarships, they have to match those 80 with 80 women's scholarships. So, you have your choice, you can cheer for a national title contanding footabll team every year, or you can have more men' s sports.
Also, if one more SEC school adds men's soccer, they will be forced to add it at LSU, due to the numbers set up by the NCAA.

Anonymous, I am not arguing with you, but you seem to be saying that you cannot have both big-time winning college football and men's varsity soccer ... so how do they manage to do it at Michigan, UCLA, Notre Dame, Virginia Tech, Maryland, Washington and Penn State? I really would like to know. Looks like it can be done.

It's easier to live in Louisiana and not like LSU if you want to go to a goverment college.

Bleu, they also all have more women's programs than we do. It all boils down to how much money there is and where you want to spend that money. Most of those schools who have contenders in more than one sport also have big time money being contributed for research and building funds, instead of having to pull it away from other sources. LSU does not getting as much grant money as these others schools do for research and other stuff, so they have to stretch what they do have. That means that some people have to make sacrifices. Politics and money will ruin any good thing. Unfortunately, in this state, we have dirty politicians who control the money, and that is the real problem.
