Message: [QUOTE="SouthCampusHero, post: 284084, member: 957"] Im good friends with an alum that played football under Coach P. He has shared countless great stories about road trips to different schools (particularly Morgantown) as well as the alumni/booster support and the money that floats around. Never once in his four year football career did the team take buses. Never. He told me that the team travelled to EVERY ROAD GAME using three chartered planes. One for offense, one for defense and one for coaching/medical staff/AD staff/some boosters, etc. His last season was in 99 so maybe things have changed but he is still close to the program and didnt mention that it has. Gross said in an interview that travel costs were essentially a wash (though he did factor in the Texas schools, SDSU and BSU). [/QUOTE]
