What are the "competative disadvantages"

[volberry]

So which is it, academics or a lack of quality in-state recruits? Sounds like you're playing both sides.

Ut just has bot issues.

I was responding to jortfree, as both UF and UGA have had kids cleared by the NCAA, but were not admitted to school due to not meeting academic requirements.

As far as the school dipping into the athletic department's coffers, it's common practice in Gainesville for UAA to donate a portion of their profits to UF's academic scholarship fund. In '07 and '09, UAA donated $6M to fund academic programs, and since 1990 that number is quickly approaching $50M in total.

$21M a year sounds like more of a management issue than a football issue. That's ridiculous.

Excessive. They basically killed the athletice funds. That's 3x what uf pays. $15mill x 10 years is $150mill. See how we screwed our selves. Even if we spent half that it's $75mill

lol at hart saying "academics"

stanford and notre dame sure do not use that as an excuse.

It hurt ND for twenty years of irrelevance. Stanford got Harbaugh but had sucked for the longest before he came. I say it did hurt them but good coaches overcome disadvantages.
