I need to see some numbers or something in writing. If you are on solid ground, you should have at least one succesful program at the school. Well, you have baseball, I guess. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ JSU TIGERS: The MOST SUCCESSFUL BCF PROGRAM SINCE THE INCEPTION OF 1-AA (14 POST-SEASON APPEARANCES, 11 CONFERENCE CHAMPIONSHIPS, 13 ATTENDANCE TITLES, TWO BCF NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIPS, THE MOST NFL DRAFTEES, 15 TOP 20 FINISHES---THE MOST OF ALL HBCU'S)....ALL OF THIS SINCE 1978!!!!! |

Here you go TP...knock yourself out: http://ope.ed.gov/athletics/instlist.asp You can use this link to compare BCU's budget to any other school...even JSU... _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ FLORIDA A&M FOOTBALL 2008: RATTLERS CONTROL THE D.A.S.H.!!!!!

I am not gonna waste my time with that list. Does it show revenues and expenses? For HBCU's the budget is whatever they choose to spend. For example, A&T would spend less than BCU simply because of travel costs savings for A&T. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ JSU TIGERS: The MOST SUCCESSFUL BCF PROGRAM SINCE THE INCEPTION OF 1-AA (14 POST-SEASON APPEARANCES, 11 CONFERENCE CHAMPIONSHIPS, 13 ATTENDANCE TITLES, TWO BCF NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIPS, THE MOST NFL DRAFTEES, 15 TOP 20 FINISHES---THE MOST OF ALL HBCU'S)....ALL OF THIS SINCE 1978!!!!! |

Yes it shows both revenues and expenses... Shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiid...If HBCU athl budgets were based on "whatever they choose to spend"...then what's stopping our schools from building bigger, better facilities and recruiting blue chip players nationally??? TP...just know that BCU can be $2 mil more "choicier" than JSU...OK??? RTD...I think BCU ranking 3rd in total revenue among all MEAC and SWAC schools is evidence of a successful athletic dept...I mean for a small private university (student and alumni population)...they are CLEARLY doing something right over there on that beach _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ FLORIDA A&M FOOTBALL 2008: RATTLERS CONTROL THE D.A.S.H.!!!!!

What yall talking about still? I've been giggling about this for 4 days now and knew folks would be tripping. Hey, it's business and whether one dollar or one million dollars is involved, I think I said waaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyy back on page two about who we take money from and for what reasons. I might not have listed them out, but like it was said on Nip/Tuck, we don't do sloppy bottom.
One would think that all HBCU's would see the merit in running your own bidness and taking care of your own bidness. I can't say or even say I care what JSU will get from the game. While I certainly wish them no harm in any sense of the word, I have to support what is best for MY school and what is in its best interest. In all the years I've been affiliated with it, I have never seen a case of selling our souls and I hope I never do. We wish you luck and Godspeed with the knowledge that it's not in our best interest. And das all I'm saying about that. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ An educated mind can never be enslaved. |

TP,
That link says that BCU made $3.4M+ on football for that year (didn't look to see what year it was for). FAMU reported $1.9M and JSU reported $1.6M. That's just football. I'd like to know how to make $3.4M+, with only 5,000 folk at the game. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ |

You still didn't answer Robber's question. How can you make 3.4 million dollars averaging only 5,000 people per game? Something's not adding up. Diebold, send help!! |

LOL...and they think someone is dumb enough to believe it. In fact, something is probably going on with how they have to report things since they are private...like counting athletic fees toward revenue or something....all I know is that they ain't making more money in football than JSU or FAMU. rocket...TP been at this too long to throw some numbers at me....the Budget at a HBCU is what they spent. Somehow BCC has to spend more so that is their budget. Look at their expenses!! Why you only looking at revenue. Why are they spending so much MORE than FAMU? I think it boils down to HOW they have to report their numbers. Please don't keep trying prop them for spending more than any other HBCU from money that they don't have...LOL _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ JSU TIGERS: The MOST SUCCESSFUL BCF PROGRAM SINCE THE INCEPTION OF 1-AA (14 POST-SEASON APPEARANCES, 11 CONFERENCE CHAMPIONSHIPS, 13 ATTENDANCE TITLES, TWO BCF NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIPS, THE MOST NFL DRAFTEES, 15 TOP 20 FINISHES---THE MOST OF ALL HBCU'S)....ALL OF THIS SINCE 1978!!!!! |

You kinda dumb yo. That thing does show expenses...and it shows that BCC makes $0.00. LOL So how are they making such a profit. I GUARANTEE you that if they could cut that budget in half they would.... _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ JSU TIGERS: The MOST SUCCESSFUL BCF PROGRAM SINCE THE INCEPTION OF 1-AA (14 POST-SEASON APPEARANCES, 11 CONFERENCE CHAMPIONSHIPS, 13 ATTENDANCE TITLES, TWO BCF NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIPS, THE MOST NFL DRAFTEES, 15 TOP 20 FINISHES---THE MOST OF ALL HBCU'S)....ALL OF THIS SINCE 1978!!!!! |

I guess some folk dont know the diff between profit and revenue...
Quote me ANYWHERE where I stated "profit"...still doesnt negate the fact that BCU still made more than JSU in total football revenue WITHOUT the FC and with averaging less attendance... Now please post JSU's net profit Dumb and Dumberer... _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ FLORIDA A&M FOOTBALL 2008: RATTLERS CONTROL THE D.A.S.H.!!!!! Discipline-Attitude-Sacrifice-Heart!!!!! |

Why are you even trying to argue with them, esp. TP? He will never admit that he's wrong to something, and Hell will freeze over before he actually comes out his mouth and gives the MEAC credit for anything. Try to watch him spin facts when you've got him in a corner, or call him out on something. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Don't worry about it...they'll be back in 08... |

Obviously some of ya'll don't know the difference between profit and revenue and the fact that what counts as revenue for one does not count for that for another.
BCU is probably including student fees and alumni donations as revenue while JSU and FAMU are not. |

Bruh, how much more outlandish can you get? I thought you had reached your peak with the SWAC/MEAC excuse, but this almost trumps that foolishness. Bringing in money means NOTHING if you're dishing out more money than you're bringing in. Accounting 101 please help this person to understand this elementary notion. This is beyond being ridiculous. |
