It's not how much you spend but how you spend it. What does it take spendingwise to build a winner?
Don't you have to first spend in order to spend wisely?It's not how much you spend but how you spend it. What does it take spendingwise to build a winner?
Well we had two headcoaching gigs that each did their best to set us back a decade.So we're spending on par with the Joneses' but performing like basement squatters...is anyone else upset about that?
That doesn't explain the preGerg slide that we were experiencing.Well we had two headcoaching gigs that each did their best to set us back a decade.
We’re on the up now.
Without looking, it’s because of scholarships.
I can almost guarantee that a good chunk of that number is a fake cost.
170 scholarships at private school prices doesn’t move the needle much?You should look then. Doing some rough math, it wouldn’t move the needle much as to our placement amongst the schools.

I realize we’re talking about 2003, but for context, I heard tuition at SU is $65k when it’s all said and done, $45k of that is just schooling (vs. books, food, rent, etc.). The 45k number is 7.6 MM, plus another 3.4 MM for the rest.
I don’t see a world where 11 MM is meaningless w/ today’s expenses, even 7.6 MM (arguably the ‘fake’ cost), or the 5 MM, which is arguably the cost difference between public scholarships and private scholarships.
The same was true in ‘03. It’s not like SU switched from being public to private.
The one cost the Syracuse football and basketball programs have that most do not is the cost of operating the Carrier Dome. I believe the university charges the sports programs that use it a lot of money, mainly for heating, maintenance and insurance.What am I missing here? 170 scholarships? It’s 85.
And SU tuition isn’t $65k. It’s $45k. The average tuition at ACC schools is just under $40k. There are 4 schools whose tuition is more than SU.
So my math says 85 x ~$6k = $510k. If you look at each schools football budget that’s not going to move the needle in comparison. Not at all.

So basically, our share of the ACC's TV contract with ESPN pays for the football program. All other football revenue pays for...something else.
Tuition, R&B is $68.5 give or take $1000. Plus COA.What am I missing here? 170 scholarships? It’s 85.
