Wow- if anyone looked at that article from '94, did you see at the end the note about athletic department budgets?
Now you basically have to be in the neighborhood of around $50 million to at least compete with the big boys and you're over $100 million if your a king of college sports. Can't believe there is so much difference. Maybe I shouldn't be amazed by that because in another 17 years I suppose athletic budgets will quintuple again with the pace of these TV contracts. Wonder if in 2028 major universities will have a quarter or half billion athletic department budgets? And the rest of the university general fund to educate students? Ha

lol I'm getting trolled hard, but I might actually do it just to shut you guys up. I bet it's wells fargo people.
I cannot believe we cannot get one spy out there! I have meetings at work or else I would be there Magnum PI style.
AGAIN the less our fans know the better, thats just what we need, running our mouths like Mizzou last year

We were ahead of Kansas, Nebraska, and Mizzou in academic rankings. Has it changed?
Wow- this plane stuff is interesting. Even if they claim to be Wells Fargo people, DO NOT believe them. They are acting as 3rd party go-betweens. Keep hounding them for quotes and info. You know how secretive Pollard is about this stuff. You think he's going to let that plane info get out on the web and then have a bunch of photographers break the story? No way. Pollard has hired Wells Fargo people to do the dirty work. Don't let them out easy.
Just be careful in case it is a real gay wedding party - you still have to study later.
Funny you say this. Summer of 1996 I was working for a company that was doing work outside one of the dairy farm buildings out by the airport. I was carrying a 6 foot long x 8 inch piece of PVC when a jet followed by a military helicopter came in to land. I was carrying the pipe on my shoulder. Needless to say the helicopter came to a stop and turned to face me. I dropped the pipe and just stood there with my hands in the air.
It's scheduled to land around 5:52. If you don't have time to find a US bank T-shirt by then to throw them off then walk up to the guys if they still claim to be Wells Fargo guys and mention something about a multi-Billion dollar bailout because of the economy. I heard that was the secret message from yesterday to try to decode the PAC 16 riddle. Once they spill the beans, they'll tell you where and when the PAC 16 welcome party with the band will be.
