Syracuse could never compete with the funding of public schools. States don't mind throwing a bunch of money at the wall to support athletics at their state institutions. I would never try to compare state school athletic budgets with Syracuse.

And Syracuse doesn't have the donor base for athletics (it seems) as many other schools do. I am sure Syracuse athletics is just as interested in investing as any other school, but the means are not as substantial. I do appreciate the fact that the school doesn't seem willing to go in over its head to spend on athletic projects, only to realize it will never be able to recover.  $250 million on the Dome reno was an eye popping number and I couldn't believe Syracuse was putting it out there for public viewing. Seems like it truly was an eye popping number. Don't want to see Syracuse mortgage their future for upgrades that will be nice for 20 years

This article shows clearly that the department is willing to upgrade and invest in football. The department IS interested, and it also has to be smart about how it goes about business
