It's not a lot of money in the overall scheme of things, but did anyone else find this fairly remarkable?

Meals: Although rare, the university allocated more money to non-travel meal allowances and food/snacks for basketball programs than for football in FY2024. Men’s basketball spent $121,322, women’s basketball spent $95,420, while football accounted for just $64,297. Interestingly enough, men’s basketball spent just $4,081 back in FY2023.

That FY23 number for men's hoops seems like it only accounted for sports drinks and energy bars. That's less than $200/week - not much above my household grocery expenses, and I'm only feeding two people.
