    We may not be quite at $35M but we have exceeded $30M. We are aggressively increasing our budget in order to be competitive amongst the institutions we would like to be peers with.

    My biggest gripe with Marlin is schedule and ROI. If he won 27 games a year every year it would be different. But that isn’t the case. If our OOC opponents all had an RPI in the top 150 history shows that we wouldnt win more than 15 games a season.

    I want to dominate the Sun Belt, not be middle of the pack. I want to see us iqualify for the NIT at least every other year. We aren’t getting that kind of production out of Marlin. We are in an average to below average league. We have the facilities and better support than almost all of the mid majors in our region.

    Now do UCF their coach base salary is less than Marlins and they have a budget of almost 60 mill
    The UCF athletic budget is about $57M and the USF was about $40M according to the 2017-2018 documents I found.

    Should also have noted that UCF listed about $22M on student fees as part of their athletic budget.

    Yes, I know........NCAA tournament $$$, eyeballs around the nation for basketball versus softball, yada yada yada......that's just how I feel.
    I think our current softball season ticket pricing is near the top in the country. I don't know that their budget is overall, but it wouldn't surprise me if we're in the top 25.

    Lots of agenda driven math going on around here.

    My agenda is to maximize the potential of each sport. Would you agree we are not there in basketball after 9 seasons of Bob Marlin?

    All I can say is that Dr. M has all the numbers and information and I trust Dr. M. I'll go where he goes.

    If Marlin had that dnh year on his resume, the mediocre crowd would be silent. ... Perhaps
    58% winning percentage in pretty bad basketball conference and worse overall schedule. 1 NCAA appearance and 1 title each for conference championship and/or conference tournament championship in 9 years. That's mediocre.Keep grasping for each and every straw you can though.
