No good points

My point is this is mainly a staff $$ comparison, e.g, A&M and Buzz in...

...the top 20 but +75-80% of the expense is salary (vs Football where staff salary is much less of the share). Subtract out salaries and what is the delta in what we spend on hoops vs anyone above us? Unless of course you believe MY and staff are somehow lacking (significantly) vs those above us in these rankings. I don't feel that way. We could up MY to a VT Buzz like salary and shoot up these rankings, but it would mean little.

Spend some $ on figuring how how to reduce the cash drain from Women's BB
UpperQuad • 06/17/22 10:21 AM ET
Kind of misleading...sub in buzz's staff salary and we move to what?

BleedinOandM • 06/14/22 09:06 PM ET
And VT is putting more effort into Basketball than in the past. No wonder
wwhokie1 • 06/14/22 05:23 PM ET
Was thinking we were closer to $6.5-$6.8M ish for FY 2021.....

VCU has a pretty good bball program for that monies...**
Bmackattack • 06/14/22 01:54 PM ET
So, if we had more money to spend, where would you spend it?**

Apologies for missing this...
GCHokie34 • 06/15/22 11:33 AM ET
Thanks for the insight. Always interesting.**

People need to dig into the numbers and see that we're not
hoosnowahokie • 06/14/22 11:37 AM ET
You're very close but drawing the wrong conclusion...
GCHokie34 • 06/14/22 04:34 PM ET
you are right, but what's percentage of recruiting cost to total expense?
icelus • 06/14/22 05:09 PM ET
Parking at ROA isn't a budget breaker. The west end of RIC is 35 to 40

yeah, I had to laugh at the discussion of
Pylons • 06/17/22 12:27 PM ET
Sorry I thought we were talking about spending. Basketball recruiting is
icelus • 06/14/22 05:43 PM ET
Let me ask you this, what happens more? Home visits or recruit event
hoosnowahokie • 06/14/22 04:58 PM ET
must mean VT ranks #1 on ROI
MaroonAvenger • 06/14/22 10:55 AM ET
Agreed.**
Stork • 06/15/22 10:55 AM ET
VT arena (Cassell) is bought and paid for, that will change soon
VictoryTurkey • 06/14/22 10:54 AM ET
Could be wrong, but I don't think that's part of bball budget
GCHokie34 • 06/14/22 01:41 PM ET
Yeah, it's not basketball specific. Unless they dole it out between sports
hoosnowahokie • 06/14/22 02:21 PM ET
Yep, that's in a separate debt section.**
Chris ColemanAdmin • 06/14/22 01:55 PM ET
Duke is 3rd, are they still financing Cameron?**
BG Hokie • 06/14/22 11:24 AM ET
They were paying Coach K well over $10M/yr his last few years
hoosnowahokie • 06/14/22 11:39 AM ET
Most conf /means medians down 20-30%? Color me skeptical of those numbers.
