Say what you want about JL, and even about the fortuitousness of the TV "bubble," but to date he has done a phenomenal job managing our finances.

68   Arkansas State   Sun Belt   $43,102,044   $43,102,044   $13,098,538   30.39

ASU has $13 mil allocated?

Florida State   ACC   $113,754,314   $115,631,800   $7,364,645

Even with the school allocating over $7 million from general funds, Florida State still was in the red.

Yet we have top notch facilities (and are even improving them), and good/well-compensated coaches across the board...impressive.

Razorback Foundation also outperforms many other schools quite significantly, which helps a lot in offsetting costs.

True. I guess it is not a full list either, because private schools like Notre Dame, USC, and Vanderbilt are not on there. (not that they would be #1, but they would be somewhere in there)
