re: there is a problem in the Atheletic department

The Athletic Dept is not an island unto itself, it is part of the University and as such, Im certain Greene has to work with his peers regarding fights for capital.

The University is in the process of spending 309 million dollars on facilities as we speak, some are directly related to athletics, like the new sports facility, and others like the new wellness facility no doubt also benefits the athletic programs/recruitment.

The way you guys talk about money its as if there are no limits you sound like...oops better not say it or I will be kicked to the poliboard, or worse yet Ill have to take you out back of the Sonic

As far as annual operating budgets, the fricking US just went through one of the worst economic dips since the depression and Im certain Greene arguing with a room full of academics that the football team really really needs a DJ room, barber shops, and flight simulators is one hell of a sales pitch. Give the guy a break.
