Is UL Athletics Broke?

Where have you been in life. It is impossible to prove a negative. I have provided to you why I don't believe we have ever spent $3.77mm dollars on support staff. I'm not sure where anyone goes from here.

Please tell me, do you believe we ever spent more than $2,000,000 on support staff.

If so, what is the basis of your belief?

I “believe” it did

I want to know why there are pennies on the end of these numbers?

Looks like Dr. Maggard did have a money tree that nobody else knew about . . . and apparently it has grown to a point where it is no longer concealable . . . and it is now coming out into the open and in the open it is just not producing enough fruit anymore . . .

Great question.

Just to make it look real . . .

Just a guess (not a fact or belief): Maybe the coaching salaries are allocated as a % of the budget, not as a round dollar amount.

Think it’s a few things. First, some of those guys left during the FY. Second, some signed new contracts and their pay increased, but on a pro rata basis for the remainder of the FY.
