Yes, I agree. But it doesn't matter how much they jack up the season ticket prices or entice people to increase their donations to Red/White club, there will still be a huge, gaping revenue hole if the roster costs $14-18 million annually.What will not be interesting is when people complain about ticket prices going up or games not being played on campus or that their seats are worse because they have not joined Red White or contributed to the program.
Whether folks like it or not, it has never been clearer that putting a winning team on the floor costs A LOT of money and that is not coming out of English Literature or law school professor salaries.
