I don't think all programs have the luxury of doing this but Alabama, Texas, LSU ... the big dogs? That's just too much money to sit on. Bryant Denny was expanded in 2009 and cost $65 million ... ok, that's a lot. Alabama made a profit of $45 million last year. Probably not much less in the previous three years. That money isn't just sitting in an account and it can't all be accounted for in facilities expansion. Again, that is profit, after all the program related expenses.

It's too much for these big schools to just be for facilities.
