ACC pays out roughly $30+ million per school. SEC and Big Ten pay out $50 million or so per team. Notre Dame gets $15 million per year on TV and some other monies as well but far short of what the conference payouts would be.
Is this a part of their unwillingness to spend like other schools do for coaches, etc... I know they opened their checkbook to get Marcus Freeman, but that was a deviation from past practice. Has their traditional unwillingness to really fork over the really big dollars to compete for the best coaches and biggest staff of analysts, etc... due to our receiving less money that the other major conference programs?
