$25m for the right to put up another $7m on Sark. What’s the price of oil up to?
As
@YLGator mentioned, this is a perfect contrast between UF and UT. Two large state Univ.'s. UT clearly is a better job given everything going back 100 years to the present, but I use the comparison only to highlight the word "cares".
Yes I know UT has the money, but they see their 2 biggest competitors (ATM and OU), one in conference and one not ascending and at or near the top. They have a good product, but they choose to look at the product while on the field and not just the records.
UT cares. Beginning next season they will have 40+ MIL in coaching salaries whether they hire Sark or Brian Kelly (those were my first 2 words when I heard the news). Meanwhile we have a buffoon as a head coach, have to beg him to fire 2 low level assts., have ceiling tiles falling down in the offices and shag carpet from 1975 in our section 8 housing and need to find another 83 cents in the couch cushions in the AD's office to begin construction of what will be an outdated football facility if and when it ever gets completed.
EDIT: BTW if it is Sark, he better have a good group around him b/c if coaching at UW where the fans care a little and then at USC where the fans do not care at all until they are winning drove him to the bottle, imagine what those 10 Gallon Hat wearing asshats will do.
