[QUOTE="Northeast Stinger, post: 209543, member: 1640"] I wonder if how much a given Division One Program spends on recruiting is a number that can be accessed easily or accurately. I noticed that Tech spends $746,590 on recruiting and Alabama spends $983,721, which doesn't sound like that great a difference given the difference in size and revenue between the two athletic departments. So I went to RollTide.Com and counted how many people they have on staff who are involved in recruiting. I counted all the coaches, naturally, but also counted office staff, development, hospitality, productions, marketing and flight operations and came up with 73 on staff who are directly or indirectly involved in recruiting, and around 33 if you only go with coaches and recruiting staff. And how many does Tech have that might be involved in recruiting? Perhaps 30 at best, if one counts everyone who might remotely be involved, but closer to 18 if just counting coaches, assistants, office help and recruiting staff. So I am guessing that the number given for a recruiting budget must only count designated budget money but does not count the amount hidden in the budget for the larger staff and all the bells and whistles. Amazing that Tennessee has designated over a million dollars for recruiting not counting staff and office help. I would say they are not getting their money's worth. [/QUOTE]
