[QUOTE="alentrekin, post: 258585, member: 2909"] Davidson '06. My baseball scholarship (one of davidson's 1.7 full...) was paid for by a football player who used to run McK's NY office. He and some of the other folks strategically killed scholarship football at Davidson -- endowing it as a non-schol sport -- and restricted nearly all of the other scholarships to strings-attached academic+athletic money. They also kept tight budgets and scheduling for everything else to allow for preseason tournaments, swag and marketing for basketball, and the coupled Title VIIII outlays. All of that is a major expense for Davidson, but it made the basketball program special on campus and unique to recruits. It all took a very long time, played into natural advantages like competitive NC basketball, and required Jim Murphy (GT MS) and some other smart folks guiding the ship. When I started a new job, my boss knew Davidson through that association alone. [/QUOTE]
