Mid-Major Madness: Savannah State’s Horace Broadnax Gets It Done

SBN’s Mid-Major Madness crunched some college hoops budget numbers and came to a surprising conclusion: Dollar for dollar, the magnificently-named Horace Broadnax of Savannah State runs the most efficient program in the game.

↵Broadnax’s 2009 season produced argubly the best Dollar-Per-Win ratio in modern college basketball. With 15 wins and a budget of $376,968, it came to roughly $25,131 per win. This may sound like a lot, but when you compare Coach Broadnax to his colleagues it is pretty apparent he may be the best bang for your buck in college basketball. Compared to the likes of big names like Howland, Williams, Self, and Donovan, Broadnax’s productivity is astounding. The bottom line is for less than one tenth the cost of the coaches just named, Horace Broadnax can get you a win.↵The whole thing is a great, wonky read -- click through for the rest if you’re even a casual stats geek.
