I would not be opposed to him becoming the assistant AD. He may be better suited for a job as an administrator. But we'll wait and see. It's a long season. I don't think it would be smart to fire someone and then turn around and ask him to be your assistant.

I've always thought he would be an excellent administrator and fundraiser for the department. I was telling WestCoastAggie that last night, that Eaves could be a better administrator

Decks, those numbers are worthless to use as comparisons. I know they are reported to Dept of Edu but you can put everything including the spending for a kitchen sink in those numbers reported. The NCAA has said as much.
If you ever want to know the real deal then post the actualy line item spending: like the number of full scholarships; recruiting budget; summer school cost; transportation cost; food; and tutors.
Still, I will agree there is no excuse for Eaves losing every first MEAC Tourny game in each year of his tenure except for one year out of 8.

This is the same data used by major news outlets including ESPN and USA Today. Unless you or someone else can provide something more concrete I'll still continue to go by this.

Seriously , you know those #'s aren't correct. Call the AD and ask him what the real #'s are. When a coach uses his own money to recruit, I guess its not an issue.

Is this info incorrect for just A&T or all MEAC schools? If you guys want to dispute this data provided by the US Department of Education then you should be prepared to provide documentation to support your argument. Please don't expect me to do your research for you.

YOUR RIGHT ABOUT THAT: IF A COACH USES HIS ON FUNDS TO RECRUIT IT'S ON THE COACH IF HE STEPS OUTSIDE OF HIS BUDGET . I don't think that the budget of $ 933,240 is Eaves problem!! The problem is getting players with size that can preform in both the CLASS ROOM AND ON THE COURT. As someone stated before a lot of players on the better teams in the MEAC could not make it at A&T due to their Grades ( correct me if I'm wrong)?? If that is the case it's not a money problem it's a talent and coaching problem.

It is a money a problem. Everyone agree that Broadway is a top coach but he will not win the MEAC without enough money. Take a look at that stupid Dept of Edu budget reported for football and read today's article in N&R.
Dept of Edu will give you an idea but you are only seeing the tip of the iceberg.
I agree there are other things involved other than money but money is a major factor.

Aggiejazz,
When you say money. Typicaly the biggest $ shortages have to due with facilities and recruting budget.
While we may not have the best facilities they are adequate. For the most part in the MEAC you kind recruit your area within in a 200 mile radius. As an example Morgan has dominated the MEAC landscape over the past several years and 90% of their players are from MD to Philly; so I could not imagine that the recruting budget at Morgan is flushed with a ton of cash.
Correct me if I am wrong but I think the b-ball playes have gone to summer school the last two years.
Money is not preventing us from winning tourney games or the regular season title

Money is a huge factor in producing winning programs. We all know that. A&T's basketball program is grossly underfunded but so is every HBCU so it's time to stop using that BS excuse!! The irony is I've been posting these numbers for a while and no one raised an objection when A&T's numbers were near the bottom.
