    One narrative after another blowing up in your face with facts.
    There is more to a budget than a coach’s salary. We have always had the smallest recruiting budget and support staff budget in the league. Compare that to our baseball program’s budget within the league. Compare our facilities in football to the rest of the league and then do so with baseball. Having the 8th highest paid coach in the conference and your in state rival doubling you up on money spent on off the field staff and recruiting isn’t the flex you think it is. That’s saying “8-4 is good enough”. That mindset would not fly in baseball. This university uses the cash cow as a rented mule paycheck to prop up a bunch of semi athletic white kids because they are too chicken sh*t to try and compete in the sport that everyone else cares about.
