RE: Huggins was a money machine

This sounds like a job for the Enquirer or Post lurkers. With the state open
records laws, someone should be able to get this info. Maybe even a
comparative study between UC and other area schools would make for an
interesting article.

I would love to see a financial breakdown on each of the sports in the

athletic department. Have any of them, other than basketball, turned

a profit.  My guess is.. not even close !

Some people just don't realize how much money Huggins generated with a
winning basketball program. Huggins meant millions to the athletic program.
They bragged on Goin in today's paper about how he raised the athletic
budget from 14 million to 25 million and he really had little to do with it.
If it wasn't for Huggins and the money the basketball team brought in it
wouldn't have happened. If Goin accomplished anything, it all came about by
riding on Huggins back all the time he was here. The new AD doesn't have
Huggins to ride on and with the money going south it's going to be a
different story. He's got so many holes in the dike to plug I don't think he
has enough fingers. Don
