No, you've made it pretty clear that you don't think bad teams in good conferences are spending more money on their athletic programs than good teams in bad conferences.

Ok Duke.

Simplistic and unnecessary.

Finally starting to show some respect. Thank you sir.

Sorry, I don't want you to misunderstand. I'm mocking you.

Wow... the irony..

I'd feel bad if you went out and got a tattoo or something. It's not actually an honorable title. Just making sure I'm being clear.

The ACC is a good example of revenue allocation. Duke is pretty good at basketball, pretty mediocre at football. Clemson, on the other hand, is exactly the opposite. Was their success predicated by success, and failures, or how the AD budgeted the revenue?

I guess, because it supports no one's point, this is not a topic of discussion. But I'll answer:

Clemson started pouring money into their football program when they started winning. Duke, getting the same ACC money, did not.

So "conference cash" is bullshit because the Athletic Departments will allocate it to the programs that bring in the dough. IOW, in HD, the bottom feeders in power conferences would NOT be allocating funds to their **** basketball programs.

This should have ended it. ****** programs don't get a huge influx of cash because top teams are successful. Their school does and they invest it in worthy programs. The ACC, a "basketball conference", sends Clemson money. It goes into the football program.

They might. I was actually thinking Duke doesn't upgrade their football program at the expense of academics. They gets lots of dough for being in the SEC and their football facility is just above high school level.

LOL. **** me. Kentucky.

And they accuse Caliparia of cheating. That SOB Coach K is double-dipping on conference cash.

"In 2012 Duke spent $1,558,233 in (football) recruiting, more than any current member of the ACC."

"It may shock some that Duke spends more than any other program in the conference,"

Shocking indeed.

Facilities are not included. They, like KY, have **** facilities.
