[QUOTE="BayoxJohn, post: 130017632, member: 1089254"] Oh, I get it now! So Nordberg and Pederson (Pitt) initially tried to get WVU into the ACC but once they were in the ACC, Pitt's ACC brethern corrected Pitt about their fallacy of their logic even though ACC officials reached out to WVU to gauge interest in joining (please remember WVU's response of, "thanks but no thanks"). When ACC officials reached out to WVU after Maryland left to gauge interest, Pitt already knew it wasn't going to happen because of WVU's academic reputation, right? Especially since WVU's "academic ranking" was about 180 and you had Louisville sitting there at 170! That really clears things up for me! LOL. You won't acknowledge the rest of my post because you can't.....case closed, you lost. Here's Pitt's annual report to the state for FY2016: [B]Athletics Actual FY 2016 Statement of Expenses: [/B] Compensation Expense Salaries $19.653,551 Fringe Benefits $7,176,700 ...Subtotal - Compensation $26,830,251 All Other Expenses Travel & Business $10,222,440 Other $27,813,672 ...Subtotal - All Other Expenses $38,036,112 [B]TOTAL EXPENSES[/B] $64,886,363 [B]Statement of Revenues[/B], excluding tuition, fees and appropriations Non-auxiliary revenue $ - Other revenue $56,324,373 [B]TOTAL REVENUES: [/B]$56,324,373 [/QUOTE]
