Doesn't explain why a surplus of money shouldn't be distributed in part to the university with which it's affiliated.


Exactly. It sounds like a surplus does exist, and the AD is just keeping it by hiding it in the budget.

If that is incorrect, then I don't know what they are bitching about.

Nike better start pushing those Indonesian kids for 13 hour days with no OT.

Child and Slave labor doesn't come cheap, when your charging $200 for shoes.

Well, this is where I think a lot of the stats about most athletic departments being in the red is a joke. For instance, I thought it was Texas or LSU where people were saying they had a perfectly good tennis center and decided to build another ridiculous one, anyway, just to spend the money. I don't known when the facilities arms race ends, but I guess if donor money is there and/or the major sports earn enough to spend it, it doesn't matter that much.


LSU's tennis center was crap. Most of LSU's facilities were crap before Alleva got here. Tiger Stadium is still crap on the inside but atleast it looks good on the outside.
