How much does your school spend on Recruiting?

[BigWoof31]

This thread really shouldn't go in the recruiting forum and its a general summary of all recruiting expenses (women and men, all sports).

Naturally, football recruiting expenses are the highest - I'm surprised to see one sport schools like Marquette on here.

Good work Georgia Tech. 6th overall in expenses and absolutely DICK to show for it. Quite an elite brain trust down on the Flatts.

President Thomas Whitmore: I don't understand, where does all this come from? How do you get funding for something like this?
Julius Levinson: You don't actually think they spend $20,000.00 on a hammer, $30,000.00 on a toilet seat do you?

That's pathetic considering how poorly they compete in basketball.

Wrestling. Their massive concourses at TCF Bank Stadium.

Most expensive major airport in the US. At least it was at one point. Ridiculous what Delta does to you up there.

I used to have to fly to Bismarck every now and then for work... fares got up to $750. Took a triangle trip around a weekend down to Orlando (had to fly back through MPLS) and saved the company $200 with the whole trip costing $550.

2. Auburn #69
3. Notre Dame #58
4. Alabama #41
5. Georgia #47
6. Florida #19
7. Georgia Tech #132
8. Arkansas #43
9. tsun #5
10. Texas #10

I notice a pattern.

I wonder what year the data is from? Is Notre Dame's ranking inflated by Golden Corral receipts or OSHA fines?

Jesus, Alabama had national championship points and still was 41st. Do they even play other sports down there?

Well, there's tobacco spitting and cousin dating, as well as the cardiovascular excellence that comes in screaming "S!E!C!" at the top of their lungs.

Alas, the Director's Cup hasn't started recognizing those yet.

They need to make hanging out the passenger window of a pickup truck and blasting road signs with a shotgun an ncaa sport. SECSECSEC could clearly pick up some AD Cup points there.
