The biggest issue IMO is the types of guys we are investing in as our "blue chippers", not what funds/facilities we have.

Moody
Turman
Thornton
Bryant

All would have been SOLID for us in their JR year, and all failed at living out requirements.

Right, but the reason we are able to land these players is because of "issues" that they may have otherwise they would be at other programs.  Without money to invest in the program that will always be the case imo.

We will always have to roll the dice on some of these kids because the 4* players with great grades who spend the weekends volunteering at a nursing home are all going elsewhere…sometimes though, they turn out alright, look at Crevon Leblanc, that kid has been nothing but an upstanding citizen here at FAU and there were plenty of folks that didn't want to give him another shot after his transgressions in high school.

The beauty in basketball is if even one of those kids keeps it together and is as good as advertised…(Raheem Brown) then we're dancing baby.

I'm happy to give Curry more time to get his team on track, I don't doubt that he can coach, it's getting the players that can execute.

Does Pat Chun even know who Matt McCall is?

Nope, there is apparently more than one person that can't stand your negative comments.

It's funny how you can make whatever comments you want when you respond but then pull out the grow up when it goes against you.  I'll try to slow down for you.

You still haven't responded to the shirt and hat? How about Miami, they have a good basketball team this year and a solid baseball program that should fit you.  

GO OWLS!

Back on the topic of money spent = athletic success.

Lets take this in…(losing over $500k or nearly 35% in ticket sales from 2012 to 2013 is what sticks out to me, wow that is not a good thing with a new football stadium on campus  :Scared:)

As it relates to basketball, see below.  This is from 2010.  If anybody can show our 2014 budget that would be great, our revenes have increased over $8m or 33% in those 4 years  :drink: :drink: :drink:Wonder if our men's basektball spending has increased at the same rate?

2014 Basketball expenses were $1,716,593. Ranking 202 out of 349 D1 basketball schools. I would guess most of the increase from 2010 would be from coaching & staff pay increases.

For comparison, Hofstra spent $2.7M and ranks 122 out of 349.
