Full list: College football recruiting expenses by conference: SEC stands out as Georgia spends big for success in 2022
How much does being inside the hotbed of recruits vs. having to travel to those hotbeds gets figured into that?
Yeah, really hard to compare apples to apples. For example, Florida uses two university owned planes to fly around to visit recruits. Do other schools have 2? 1? None? Or do they have to purchase tickets / last minute tickets and have expensive travel bills that UF doesn’t have as much of as the private plane cost is cheaper overall or allocated differently. Have the planes already been paid for? Appreciated/ Depreciated accounting? Who knows?
