Yeah I'm with you there, all you have to do is see UConn who is making visible shifts to invest in their football program again. I hope we end up in the same conference as them, our rivalry generates interest and interest generates money. People site that the basketball schools have a major advantage since they don't have to allocate money in the rev share allotment to football. The problem is they aren't making even close to the money they need too in order to take advantage of that. BTW, I'm pretty sure the rev share allotment is going to be higher for basketball in the ACC than the SEC and Big Ten, not sure about the Big 12. I do think the Syracuse Basketball job is attractive beyond reasons of the brand and historical prestige. Fran is super important for leading the football program right now with the drive and vision to make up for disadvantages from a rev share standpoint as being at a school that puts more value into basketball than the average power conference school. As bad as the last football season ended post Angeli, Fran did start as a first time head football coach with a 13-4 record, 6-3 in conference headlined by wins against Miami and in Death Valley at Clemson. Fran made changes way beyond the main reason the season derailed. With Fran it's not about patching a mistake, but how to patch it and find way to become better from it and turning it into an advantage.
