Well, you said "when we aligned our resources correctly." What did you mean by that? Clearly you think they now aren't aligned properly, else you wouldn't have brought it up.

For starters it meant spending what would be considered a reasonable amount for a program of our stature on a coach. And don't tell me they couldn't find the money to pay more than $450k, when it has been stated multiple times that they were going to pay Tommy Amaker a Million. It also means spending the money to find, and travel to, opponents that will help to raise our stature. If that means cutting sports or whatever they need to do to not fund basketball like a low mid major, then that is what they need to do, but treating our program like it is not a top priority is unacceptable. Also, football IS a bad idea if we are not able to fund it properly either. We are paying our coaches enough to make us TENTH in CUSA. If that is indeed all we can afford, we have serious financial problems in our athletic department.
