I'm going to disagree with you here. Winning is a good way to get your program on sound financial footing, but money is always the bottom line.

and represent the school.

E.g., UNC was stone cold guilty of academic fraud. They denied, delayed, obstructed, obfuscated until the NCAA had to quit. How was the school impacted. It wasn't.

OTOH, with Alleva as AD, UNC would have admitted guilt in advance, suspended Coaches and Players, prostrated the school before NCAA investigators and received a ton of sanctions. How would that represent the school?
