Wrong answer folks...I got the word from the Horses mouth themselves.....Our tax money does help pay for the expenses of the University...Found this info out while getting Info about funding the College expenses for my sons...In case they don't get a full ride.....If you don't believe me, contact the Office of Adminstrations at U of L and UK.....
P.S. You all don't worry, just as soon as the wife retire's....I'll be leaving this god forsaken State and Jefferson County especially.....

Again you misunderstand the truth....Tax money goes to Universities and it's spread out to any and all depts. of the University to use as they see fit.......Got the info from teh Peeps at U of L and UK...so see I do know what the heck I was talkin about on the Tax money leaving our pockets to support the Universities..... Even if just 1 penny of the tax money goes towards the Basketball dept.

WRONG, WRONG, WRONG WRONG!
The athletic departments at UK and U of L are self funded for profit. They actually put money back in the general student fund. You did not get that from the folks at either University. You got some information, but I can promise you that your tax dollars do not fund the athletic department.
Mills you can tell me all of the things you thought you heard, but that is not the truth.

Wrong again tim, I personally asked the UK and U of L people who gave the College Info to the High School, right out of their mouths..If it was not for the Tax dollars helping to support the Universities, none and I repeat none of the Scholorships could be given out free, as a full ride as they say.....

Mills I am going to say it one last time as plain and simple as I can, please try and grasp this concept: The Athletic Department is self funded. It makes millions of dollars. The football and basektball programs pay for themselves and the rest of the sports. Trust me, it is fact. When the people you talked to were discussing scholarships, they were not talking about athletic scholarships. This is fact, not heresay, rumor or innuendo.
Do some research Clyde no money given to the athletic departments, they don't need it and they actually give money to the schools general fund.

It is wager time I guess Clyde....how about $50 that says I can post links to the truth about this before the weekend is out? Whaddya say, since you spoke to the horses mouth?
None of the scholarships could be given out for sports without tax money? What the crap do you think they do with the roughly $17 million dollars in pure profit that the U of L basketball team makes? That is the money they make after meeting the budget, strictly profit! That is not even counting the football money. Do you really think they or UK need any of your tax dollars for a basketball scholarship?
Yeah the "MOST PROFITABLE COLLEGE BASKETBALL TEAM IN THE COUNTRY" needs your tax money to fund the players scholarships.
