Here are the top ten spending universities with regard to their football programs:
Top 10 spenders:
1. Ohio State, $31,763,036
2. Alabama, $31,118,134
3. Notre Dame, $29,490,788
4. Auburn, $27,911,713
5. LSU, $25,566,520
6. Florida, $24,457,557
7. South Carolina, $22,794,211
8. Wisconsin, $22,041,491
9. Arkansas $22,005,014
10. TCU $20,609,361
There's a couple of interesting teams in there. First...there's Notre Dame...how funny is that.
Second...there's TCU...tenth in the country. People calling the former SWC member a mid-major team is kidding themselves. Sure, they play shit teams...but that college has the capital to bring in top prospects...year after year.
To put it more into perspective...here's the schools that pay the most per underclassmen that attends the school:
1. Notre Dame, $3,531
2. Tulsa, $3,236
3. TCU, $2,822
4. Stanford, $2,625
5. SMU, $2,113
6. Miami (FL), $1,927
7. Boston College, $1,891
8. Northwestern, $1,851
9. Arkansas, $1,625
10. Auburn $1,518
There's fucking Tulsa and TCU again...
Is it really a surprise that they are good year after year?
