He was also very obviously promised and he negotiated a pay bump after the Weis check cleared that essentially constituted backpay. There was a lot of bitching about that raise when it happened, but it was scheduled.

If your telling me that we got Beaty for 800k, while telling him when we pay off fat boy Charlie that we will give you more money that makes sense. If your telling me that under this salary scenario Beaty was as good as we could do that makes sense. If your telling me we could have paid $10m then the first two statements are null and void and make no sense.

The last time I was in Lawrence was weekend of Les's first home game. Had a family thing planned way ahead didn't even know about football game. Have three sister's and brother all in the area and the previous trip stayed with one sister which pissed off another sister so this time I decided I would just stay at the Oread, which pissed off everyone. Anyways arrive on Thursday and one sister knows someone at the Oread so I get different room and comp tickets to the game. On Saturday go down stairs get something to eat and the place is packed. Go up the roof top and its just a festival. Just stayed up there. Never even crossed my mind to head over to the game. Had a blast. The point of all this is that I like college football and my whole family KU. It would be awesome to enjoy KU football. I apologize for the rants I just know if we hired the right coach we could get there and it's ok that guys are excited about this hire I just do not see it working out.

Doesn't this set up nicely in some ways?

**Obviously things will change a little with transfers, but this set's up 2022 to look something like

7 - SR (+2 Grad Transfer)
19 - JR (+1 Grad Transfer or JUCO)
30 - SO
6 - RS FR (+13 recruits)

I've seen Phd mention 16 scholarships available? Anyone know how accurate that number is?

Say it is 16, I'd say spend 13 on HS players and take a flyer on 3 JUCO's or grad transfers to get a few more upperclassman.

"and Goff who was head of fundraising and development".



"It became clear to (Richardson) that the cheerleaders were being presented as sex objects to titillate the men that funded the majority of Northwestern’s athletics programs,” the lawsuit says. “After all, the happier these men were, the more money the university would receive from them.”
