  • On this episode of “Sports Dissected,” we go inside the kitchen at LSU to learn how executive chef Michael Johnson - and his team - feed an ENTIRE athletic program three times a day, seven days a week. In addition to chef Johnson showing us how to make a few of his favorite dishes, he also shares some food tips that will help young athletes prepare for not only the next level but life in general. This might be our tastiest episode to date! Watch with caution because you’ll never see it that same.

They get to train in world class training facilities with individually dedicated personal trainers, free dietitians, free medical care, everything that they need to prepare to be a professional athlete in their chosen sports AND a degree all furnished by LSU, so don't tell me they don't get jack, that is a bunch of bullshit.
