Message: [QUOTE="gsmooth, post: 4612821, member: 9355"] Interesting post. I am sure money used in football is primarily used for football, but I would assume some of that money would be used to increase spending in basketball, too. But yeah, I think they are increasing their spending in hoops (more for football for sure), but it certainly isn't buying dominance in hoops. Whether it's building a sports team, college or pros, or building a business, having more money definitely helps, but there has to be an intelligent plan to go along with it. Simply throwing more money without that intelligent plan is exercising the law of diminishing returns. There are too many examples of sports teams that heavily spend on players without thought of how their skills complement each other, without good game planning, or good player development and because of that their seasons amount to nothing.
