Really dumb question here but I just don’t know, Whit asked for $80M…

To get us on par with the rest of the ACC athletic department funding. This funding information is public so the admin sees it every year across the ACC. I’m curious if they simply havemt thought it important to give more funding to the football program or if we literally don’t have it? I assume the media/tv money, ticket sales, and money from student fees are all on par with other schools? Where is the lack of funding?
