Men's Basketball Final Four Spending

[Wild Turkey]

This is what the 4 teams in the Final Four Spent on their Men's basketball programs:

Duke - $21.4 million
Auburn - $15.76 million
Houston - $12.55 million
Florida - $8.85 million

Other Schools of Note:

Kentucky - 23.6
UConn - 20
Kansas - 19
Tenn - 19.3
Michigan State - 17.5
AZ - 17.2

The article did not say if that included NIL but I am assuming it does.

Right, so it's not all about money, because Florida beat a team that spent over twice what they did.

Georgia loses a guard to UConn.

I’m thinking a chunk goes to coaches salaries as well. For example Golden at Florida makes 3.6 million where a lot are more like at 6mm.

Ironically the lowest on the list is Duke’s coach at 1.7mm but he is about to get a raise.
