A surprise to see Providence on the list. And to a lesser extent, Northwestern.

I’ll take it. Seventh in the ACC isn’t a bad place to be and it at least gives us a shot at national contention, even if it’s not under Coach Capel.

These are a little misleading because it probably includes a 1 time hit for the Stallings buyout plus 1-time facility upgrades. For TCU, it probably includes some amortized amount of their major arena renovation.

Yes, not a bad list to be on, even if losing. It shows that the money is there, even if it hasn't always been spent well.

No Gonzaga, Houston and Baylor!
