Message: [QUOTE="EdSaid, post: 3571236, member: 10651"] I've worked at both football colleges and non football colleges. No brainer I preferred non football. Football becomes their won kingdom. I always had a problem justifying it. On the other hand, football is where the clout lies. Some one said 100k for recruiting. Sorry not close, for Geno to maintain the level of recruiting he/the staff is spending. Minimum 500-$1 million. More likely more. If he's buzzing around in charters easily more than $1M. Think about it: car rentals, hotels, per diem>>>BOOM. A so-so Div I baseball team can spend $500,000. Team travel is a double BOOM. Those charters are between 5-10K per hour, add first class hotels and meal money. Add the tutors and training staff. As a rule there are no game guarantees for conference schedule. I double SC and Baylor's guarantees pay for half of transportation. Tv money for women is about 10% of men's TV money. This I know for a fact. There is still discrimination there and for the most part the women are glad to be on TV. (The women have come a long way with TV and Geno is a big part of that. Finally, NCAA Tournament money is a split between each school in the conference and one share for the conference commissioner's office. It dwindles down, Same for Men's b-ball and football bowl games. [/QUOTE]
