Football Budget

[MangoZip]

Pretty much confirming what we already knew, but embarrassing to be below several FCS schools as well. We have the same budget as Stony Brook?!

It’s a shame, because they deserve better.  I also think they’re going to surprise a lot of people this year.  I’m probably in the extreme minority here — maybe even alone — but I think football takes a sizable step forward this season while hoops takes a step back.

 

QB1 and the entire offense really is going to make some noise this year.

You are not in the extreme minority. This team is slowly rebuilding with the biggest jump at QB. 6-6 is definitely within their grasp and 7-5 is possible, but not probable.

 

Regards the football budget, I am not worried. Goodrich and Pottorff know it is low and they are working to add to it while suffering the cuts the university has mandated to right its financial situation. Both will be resolved over time. As mentioned in another post today we are a program that competes well in most every sport. Baseball would have been a top competitor had they not lost their top three pitchers this season, all of whom will be back.
