Didn't Mark Twain once write "There are three kinds of lies: lies, damned lies, and statistics."?
What's ignored here is that Foley let the facilities deteriorate.
Football has only now caught up with other SEC schools and Foley should have used Spurrier's popularity to collect funds for improvement.
Included in the deteriorating facilities were student housing for athletes, which was pathetic compared to other schools.
The campus looks completely different now with Stricklin overseeing construction and renovation of major sport facilities compared to when Foley left.
