[QUOTE="steeleer, post: 132281277, member: 1484359"] Ok. I obviously need to slow this down for you. Is $80 million a lot of money? Sure but that is also divided amongst a bunch of schools. Is say a single payment of $8 million dollars going to change the trajectory of our football program? No f#$king way. Some dumbass at WVU would throw it at some infrastructure that will be obsolete in 8 years. Gone. Poof. On the other hand...parlaying our position into a ticket out of the NCAA with a binding agreement to no longer interfere with existing and future Big 12 members would likely double our current revenue. Read this articl.
