Due to a budget deficit of over $940 million dollars, Louisiana Governor John Bel Edwards indicated that there will be significant funding cuts which would affect LSU football:
"If you are a student attending one of these universities, it means that you will receive a grade of incomplete, many students will not be able to graduate, and student-athletes across the state at those schools will be ineligible to play next semester," Edwards said, according to The Times-Picayune. "That means you can say farewell to college football next fall."
Edwards maintains that this statement and deficit should be taken seriously:
"These are not scare tactics. This is reality," Edwards said. "An unstable state budget will not only hurt children and working families in our state, it will devastate communities, businesses and local government as well."
