Diversification
LSU's athletic program is known nationally for its success in recent years of the football program.
And those that follow women's basketball recognize LSU as an elite program in that sport over the last four or five years.
Baseball was the team of the '90s and still trying to find its way back.
And a couple of years ago, men's basketball made the Final Four.
The reason I bring all of this up is LSU also has a top-10 ranked gymnastics program that will appear in Shreveport on Sunday.
This diversification of success is far more impressive than just being a "football school'' or a "basketball school.''

What about Track and Field? As usual, the sportswriters in La. just can't seem to recognize the real powerhouse of LSU Sports is Track and Field.
Give them their due...for once!
