Just goes to show everyone what FBS level coaches, with a few key transfers, and a highly rated recruiting class can do. FAU was a mid-level program like ODU. They aimed high and shot through the roof. Many here are happy with 12-14 rated recruiting classes, FCS level coaches, and the status quo. There was NO reason ODU could not have done the same. You are either going to act and spend like an FBS level program or go back to FCS.

Do we have the same amount of money to be spending on coaches like that? I don't know what the numbers look like but it seems money is tight right now

Yes we do.....Money is not the issue. We had the money to give BW a nice raise last year and well as the asst. coaches plus 2 year contracts. Money is not an excuse. FAU coaches are FBS level and know how to recruit. If ODU does not have the money then we should have NEVER moved to FBS. I just hope all these graduates over the last 15 years are starting to step up with donations because if they don't the old guard donations are starting to diminish.

When I can afford to live comfortably my damn self I'll donate lmao
