    Where did you see we low balled him? It was my understanding we offered more than Bama, or was that bullshit?

    I think he’s saying we low balled early when our $8.7m offer would’ve only made him 15th highest paid.

    By the end, we were offering him $9.4, which would’ve been top 8. Softy heard from @Sources that we’d have gone over $10, but maybe by then the writing was on the wall and it was never formally offered.
    Depending on when the 8.7 offer was made, I think it's dumb to blame Dannen. That's a fair first offer. He strung UW along. That's messed up. Reminds me of some women I've known.

    Fuck you! Tea is the most consumed beverage in the world (excluding water).

    Well. White rice is the most consumed food worldwide and soccer is the most played sport. So.......

    Atleast soccer has their 14 year old professional developmental programs and relegation system figured out

    If you think CFB is a cutthroat bidness, go follow Euro futbol for a bit and get back to me. We got Saudi princes cookin the books, match fixing, players transferring to rivals, and massive bribery campaigns for almost every major tournament host.

    Someone should tell the Saudis that they can buy a college football team. We? are open for business.

    This is accurate. When it comes to corruption, soccer has a PhD, and CFB is in preschool.
