It does. I think some of the criticism of UCF on the fees front is that they subsidize the athletic budget much higher than most schools - something close to 50% of our budget comes from these fees.
You are in serious need of an education. Compared to other schools of our size, especially those in the G5, we're doing very, very well to have 50% of our revenue come from things other than mandatory fees.
Ohio University comes to mind as one of the most imbalanced.
If UCF was in a P5 conference with the TV and other revenue share, of which we do very much exceed 30-40% of the P5's fanbase/viewership (and it would only increase as a P5 program), then these fees would make up less than 30% of our budget, possibly less than 20%.
You really need to stop comparing G5 statistics to P5 programs, especially the upper-tier. UCF is already nearly the middle-of-the-pack P5 program ... despite being a G5 program, fanbase and viewership wise.
I mean, you are so out of touch with reality on this, which is absolutely scary.
However, get rid of GOL and bring some youth and fire and watch how fast alumni start donating to the program. Many have vowed not to give one dime until he's gone.
Then they are absolutely irresponsible alumni who are only taking away from our student-athletes.
Furthermore, if not GoL, they will be boycotting virtually every coach at some point, if not every other year because we'll give up the stability we currently have. That's because people who boycott their Alma Mater and otherwise make it about "deliver me a product" instead of "I want to help our program and student athletes" are fickle and change on ...
