So...because I brought them up as an example of how not spend money on your program means I have to care about them???

I brought up the Rays as to what NOT to do with MONEY.  That they have been successful without in the recent past is an anomaly and not sustainable over time.  There is no way in CFB to find a great player off waivers or get a value player from somewhere and just spend less.  There has to be a commitment monetarily  and a commitment to be competitive. Period.

The fact that they have survived is amazing but not possible using that formula in CFB.

When was the last non P5 school that won a national championship, that should tell you enough about commitment.  The fact that SU is in the P5  and the ACC is more of a testament to the Basketball team and our football history not any recent commitment to football.

Do you think that it is a coincidence that we have the Melo Center, one of the best facilities in Basketball, college or pro and that we get great recruiting classes since it was built??  Let me tell you, it is not.

Football doesn't have that, or a Hall of Fame coach to rely on.

Do you think that just bringing our football facilities up to just around the lower 3rd in the P5 is going to propel us to consistent winning seasons??  Most likely not but that as it seems is all our administration is willing to do.  So we will continue to be a lower level program.

It is what it is.
