www.midmajority.com/school.phpInteresting data on what schools are spending on athletics and how A&T compares with MEAC schools, as well as schools nationally.

Very good information. I wonder how accurate it is, because compared to MEAC schools we rank 3rd. We were told that A&T is near the bottom (budget wise) of schools with a football team.

Looking at this information, it appears the biggest problem is in the line item - "recruiting" where the dropoff comes into play.

unless i looked at something a little wrong (which is very possible), it appears we rank 5 out of 9 as far as budget. ranks look like this (1st to last): FAMU, BCC, Howard, Del St, A&T, NSU, Hampton, SCSU, MSU.

We have a decent athletic budget but it doesn't(or I didn't see) how much was spent on football. Or maybe yall are just talking basketball?
Did anybody look at the "Records against" page? For the last 10 years we only have a winning record against Howard. The last 5 we dont have a winning record against anyone(Basketball).

The problem here is that without a line item comparison we don't really know what is what. But on the surface it looks like we are back to management of resources. I would have never guess we out spend Hampton & SCSU.

Carolina's recruiting budget is more than our entire mens basketball budget and there are 15 schools with a high recruiting budget than theirs.

Just further proof that no one in the MEAC should be playing at the D-I level.

To me it just proves that we have a lot of work to do, and a long journey ahead of us.
