Conference Recruiting Expense Series: Top-50 Spenders

MarkOU · 01-24-2012, 08:26 PM

Interesting list.

Texas at #10.

I thought they didn't need to spend money on recruiting as kids just flocked to them?

Anyway thats my shot at Texas for the day so let the "how obsessed I am" posts follow.

pretty interesting, and funny.......Tennessee??? LOL

EDIT: My bad, Mark.....

"MAN, you just obsessed with Texas, aren't you? Bet you didn't even notice OU on that list, you just can't get us off the brain!!!" We getting a lot of free rent in your head, ain't we???"

Miami at #47, getting the most bang for their buck.

Now, development....

Did anybody else notice that 11-15 are known mostly as basketball schools? That's a lot of money just to get 5 men on a court compared to 11 men on a field.

Ohio State would be up at the top if their home state wasn't full of bluechips in both football and basketball. Lucky bastards.

Tennessee has to spend a lot of money, to recruit nationality. The state as a whole, doesn't produce much BCS/SEC talent.

Study decommitments of top 100 high school football recruits - Andy Staples - SI.com

An article that talks about de-commitments.

Seems most are head cases.

It's interesting that the school who spends the most is also one of the schools that "stole" the most recruits. Could just be a coincidence as well.

The list is for money spent on recruiting, not getting an education.

Why Bo hasn't started to partake in the riches being an Ohioan and former buckeye I just don't understand.
