By Kyeland Jackson —
John Schnatter criticized university athletics Wednesday, saying athletics leadership was “invisible” and “sucking the lifeblood” of U ofL.
Schnatter, a trustee on U of L’s board and Papa John’s CEO, asked trustees include athletics in finance discussions. Schnatter, also a board representative on the U of L Athletics Association Board, said he and Interim President Greg Postel previously discussed athletics, saying there’s a pattern of its leadership being “invisible” to board discussions.
“Until you fix athletics, you can’t fix this university,” Schnatter said.
