Message: [QUOTE="longtimefan, post: 693496, member: 212"] Interesting aside on the position of "Stanford Head Basketball Coach"--there isn't one. The actual title is "Anne and Tony Joseph Director of Basketball". In other words, the position is endowed. Can you imagine how large the gift was to enable endowment of a position that pays $1M+? If I remember it correctly, Ohio St has endowed all 85 of their football scholarships. There definitely is a caste system in D-I athletics. It's hard work for many schools to compete with the monied blue bloods. I think SU has done a pretty good job with limited resources. And for that, our last 2 AD's deserve applause. [/QUOTE]
