Pic from 2017 coaches bio. Mullen wore the same tie in 2006 coaches bio picture, but I can’t find it right now.....that damn tie is at least 15 years old and he wears it in almost every photo opportunity......check google....damn, Megan, y’all make millions, buy your guy some modern ties, at least!

I would complain, but I have just a few ties that I wear and I have had them for about a decade... don't need knew ones.

Back to the $5m anonymous gift, wouldn’t you love to know who? You figure either someone who had a very successful career and doesn’t want the publicity or someone who had it passed to them via inheritance.

Either way it’s a very kind gift that makes you want to thank ... whoever.

Then again, what if it was Mac feeling the guilt?

And some pants that fit. I’m not saying they need to be Slevin skinny jeans but at least a trim/slim fit. He’s closer to MC hammer pants than a well fitted suit

The UAA is clueless. The cost of borrowing money is at an all time low. They could borrow $200,000,000 on a 15 year note and it would only cost them $17,000,000 a year. Don't get they get around $40,000,000 year alone from SEC proceeds? It makes no sense.

Proud to say I still have, and can fit into, my orange painter pants that I wore in college.... despite decades of constantly pulling them from the trash where my wife keeps seeming to "misplace" them.

TOS says it's one of the Morgan (lawyers from Morgan & Morgan). He's apparently a UF grad a big supporter.

Remember, "Neither a borrower nor lender be." Never borrow money to buy a depreciating asset. If you can't pay cash you don't need it. All words to live and prosper by.
Oh, and get off of my lawn.

That’s an old wives (and Dave Ramsey) tale. I think just the opposite. I want my cash that’s not needed for liquidity where it can perform the best, and the least amount of money directed at depreciating assets when I can borrow at historically low rates and deduct the interest.

That’s hilarious! My Dad has a “Give’em Hell, Pell” sticker over his work bench in our garage for years! It was still up when they sold my childhood home 12 years ago.

Son, I still regret selling that home.

I’m pretty sure John Morgan was making sandwiches at Joe’s Deli my senior year. Packed full of meat.

So if you determine you need to spend 85 million to get facilities up to your average competitions but you take 5 plus years to build it, shouldn't you update the plans and spend 115 million in order to not already be 5 years behind?

It’s not a personal consumer purchase of a boat. This is a massive income producing investment. The income greatly outpaces the depreciation. Capital investment strategies would strongly contrast with your theory.
