    Having graduated and worked for Purdue and NASA, both of these are not the case there. Coaches are 4x president salary, and the training facility (including the new one) doesn’t compare to something like the water training astronaut facility at JSC.

    Sports facilities are nice, but they come from a different lot of money and are less funded than, for example, the engineering dept.

    Edit: to be extra clear, the sentiment of over paying for sports is fine, but for anyone who graduated for a state school like me, you’re taking pot shots at my degree. And so while I agree with the sentiment, heartily fuck you if you didn’t put in your 11 years of undergrad and grad school at an ivy league university where this isn’t true.

      Lol imagine thinking this is a slight against you.

      Anyway comparing your intellectual degree, to your sports scholarship, is stupid. You’re there for your muscles, not your brains, and even your school ride proves that. Get saltier.

      You’re soft & a cry baby. Does NASA use you as a crash test dummy?

        No, really, tell me another. If you want to be a useless and vacuous asshole, dance for the rest of us. It’s apparently all you have to offer the class.
