[QUOTE="wbgvwbgv, post: 129314501, member: 1417056"] That is was I thought except I see where TCU allotted $1200 for travel expenses and you would think that a majority of their players and student body come from Texas. Their travel expenses are 60% of WVU's total. Something is not adding up here. I kind of agree with Bill Snyder: “The cost of Burger King is no different in Boston than it is in Kansas.” or Morgantown or Fort Worth, TX. With so many Big 12 schools in the top 15 "cost of attendance" payout, it doesn't seem coincidental and it appears as though their athletic departments had a big part in establishing the amount to pay their student athletes. What is so expensive about living in Lubbock and attending Texas Tech as compared to the other schools in the conference? $5,100 vs. $1,971 - something is not right here.
