Ole Miss spent a lot of money to lose to Murray State.

Lol, yep.

The rebels must be ginning money. I’m surprised they are that high in baseball when they are spending so much on football. I believe they are spending a good bit on basketball too; had to in order to keep Beard.

I think these numbers are skewed by construction projects. Last year, they had Bingahamton State at $23M because a Widow bought them a stadium. 60M bucks for Mizzou's stadium, sorry.

Probably she had Tony Soprano Contruction, Sacramone Electricians, Vito Spattafore Lighting, Ralphie Siffaretto Fences, Multisanti Plumbers, Lupatazzi Turff, and Feech Lamanna Landscaping. She got a $3M stadium for $60M.

Mike has some big money dedicated boosters that have been with him for a long time. I know David Nutt gives them a lot of money to support baseball.

I imagine this will look different after this year.

[Coach34]

Yeah- I would be surprised if we arent into 8 figures for 2026.

Anybody else notice and surprised by what SEC is not in that top 25?

Well, private schools like Vandy don't report - so we don't know what they are spending, but I'm surprised that Florida isn't up there.

[Coach34]

bingo
