Cost reality setting in for many schools

Just saw where FSU is on the hook for about 74 mil if they totally clean house. What’s Franklins tab, 50 mil. Jimbo was 75 mil Florida gonna be paying “3” head coaches again by firing Napier (Mullen, Napier and new stooge). That’s gotta be 30-40 mil. What was our tab, 10 mil? Fickel couldn’t be far from joining the list. Don’t know where this ends but just a very brief recap and I’m in the 300 mil range for the above wo Fickel. You add in Arkansas, Ok State…….geez that’s a lotta money. Somebody has to have a tab on dead money paying ex coaches and I bet it’s well above 300 million. Could it be a half billion? Probably after some more walk the plank. This is the predicament DimWhit and JB put us in with back-to-back payouts to do other things on Saturday’s. MTH

Easy player movement and conference realignment has impacted my engagement
