Is this the same University of Florida that did this: Give a 6 year 24 million contract to a coach of a so called amateur sports team ? http://sports.espn.go.co

Is this the same UF that gets a cut of SEC 2.25 billion dollar contract ? http://m.sportsbusinessdaily.com/Journal/Issues/2008/08/20080825/This-Weeks-News/ESPN-Pays-$225B-For-SEC-Rights.aspx http://m.sportsbusinessdaily.com/Journal/Issues/2008/08/2008...?
Yes I think it is. Hmmm I wonder why they have nothing left for cs education.
- ScottBev 15y agoAffiliated? Yes. Two separate entities though. They do not receive any funding from the University. In fact the UAA has made a profit consistently for quite a while and has returned $6-8 million/year to the University. So, yes the UAA gives ridiculous amounts of money to coaches, but they are making a decent ROI.
- ScottBev 15y agoAlso, the $6-8 million given to the University is after the UAA pays for all of the expenses of the non revenue producing sports teams.
- cmadan 15y agoThe UF football program is profitable so it does not matter how much they spend on their coach or their program.
- ColderRichs 15y agoThe CISE program at UF is profitable, so it shouldn't matter how much we spend on our program.
