I'm thinking more like 3 to 5 years out as spending pressure continues to
increase. $200MM is only the beginning, and we don't have the donor base, the numbers of alumni, the ticket revenue or the TV contract revenue of the large Big10 and SEC schools. And we don't have billionaires like Phil Knight or Larry Ellison pumping in money.
I definitely agree with you on high profile duals like NC State, and also top out of conference duals like Ok State, Cornell and Ohio State. Heck, Stanford is going to be a big dual too.

Agreed but if total AD budget increases by $60M we aren't cutting sports
