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.

. 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.

And doing so with one of the highest athletic budgets in the conference. That brings up the question what is all the money being spent on? How how do other schools do more with less? The Ted should be close to if not completely paid for as well as the Bud and the JJarrett building. The practice facility is paid for. We don't spend much on marketing the programs or branding the facilities. We don't pay our coaches market rate. We aren't paying recruits under the table. Is it non-revenue sports? Administrative salaries?

YES. I have raised all these questions before. It just doesn't make sense to me. We seem to be sinking money into something that other schools aren't and it needs to be addressed, or we are going to struggle to compete.
