This is, of course, not including Shaquille O'Neal, because he made all his money in college.

As I stated, typically those numbers do not count the cost of the stadium or bonds on the stadium, which are considered university resources, among the many other things on campus they may use.

 

Thats pretty much the opposite of what Ive read. When you look through the numbers they almost always include those type of things in the budget.

UW Athletics is requesting a budget of just over $133 million for 2013-14. The figure includes a one-time, $30 million expense for construction costs related to the department’s Student-Athlete Performance Center.

That is Iowa from a few years ago. It goes over the $14mil building related expenses and how everything you listed is part of it.

 

According to the NCAA definition, direct facilities costs "nclude direct facilities costs charged to intercollegiate athletics, including building and grounds maintenance, utilities, rental fees, operating leases, equipment repair and maintenance, and debt service" (italics mine). The renovations of Kinnick and Carver were partially supported by issuing bonds, so that means the immediate debt payments for those projects should be reflected in the direct facilities cost portion of the budget.

 

The donations basically make most big10 schools profitable.

Yeah i was looking for her articles because those were kind of the rage when expansion was being discussed.

Shes pretty good. She breaks down just football and then overall budget.

UNC needs to start paying their players again.

So Ball State raped Illinois State tonight. We started off slow, in fact I think we were down like 21-16 at Halftime, but we went on to win 51-28 by the end. Absolutely took over the 2nd half. The crowd was loud, and also probably the largest of the season. I can't believe we filled like 75% of the stadium tonight.

IU set a (modern) record for points in a game with 73. I don't care if it was against Indiana State, we only beat them by 7 last year. Defense is still a big concern, missed wayyyyy too many tackles.

 

Tevin Coleman looked damn good.

 

I've also never seen a player call for a fair catch on a punt return, and then get decked by a player on the kicking team before the ball even falls out of the air. The Indiana State player rightfully got ejected, what a moron.

He should be suspended for the season

I've seen it a few teams but ya that was bulls***, easy ejection.

What about Penny?

Worked with a guy back in the day that was friends with and went to high school with Glenn Robinson. Said he got loads of money throughout high school and at Purdue.

No offense Capn, but Clowney disappears every game. He looks great and makes some highlight plays but the guy has no motor. I wouldnt draft him very high.

So much for a surefire #1 pick.

He's a one play per series guy. I wouldnt waste a top pick on him IMO. Maybe he'll improve or maybe he didnt take to the SC conditioning coaches, but he was non-existant for long stretches, just like last year.

Nkemdiche looks better at this point.

 

Treadwell also looks good. So glad Ole Miss paid him to go there, he would have been scary at Michigan.

Dude WTF are you talking about. FCS teams are automatic wins, at least by 50.

 

USC is winning, but they look like s***. Kiffin is on his way out.

Ole miss just pissed this game away by giving up a 4th and 18. Ouch.

You can buy the best players, but you still need to coach.

Ole Miss Vandy this is one of the best games ever. Holy god.

f***ing craziness

Ole Miss so lucky. Matthews had it.

f***ing craziness

College f***ing football.

College f***ing football.

Great way to start the season.

 

Now go Hawaii.
