Advertising money drives the market. There is no one home in New orleans anymore and to even hold games at LSU or anywhere near there are ridiculous. There is not many people left to go to the games and even the one's who might are hurting right now, financially. No Tv's to turn on there to watch the game either or business to advertise. In reality football is likely the last thing on many of these people's minds, they have bigger fish to fry now.
New Orleans will only get a neutral site for divisional games to call it fair but they will be away for all other games. Those stadiums will fill up and those local markets will fill the stadiums. I don't think many folks from New Orleans are hoping to go back to any football stadium for a VERY, VERY, long time.
That franchise is moving as well, no chance to get well in New Orleans and the locals boys didn't exactly want to pony up for a new stadium anyways. They were going to part ways, either way.
