Taking on more debt for assets that depreciate faster than the debt goes away does not make one rich. It makes one leveraged. I assume you are financing this with future Big 12 distributions, which could decline after the current contract due to financial woes at ESPN?

You know what is better than leverage? Welfare... Marshall is the king of sucking down welfare dollars...

Or you could invest in a good football coach.

We're just sort of hanging around waiting for you guys to become totally bankrupt. Then, we'll buy your physical structures (obvious remodeling and updating work would need to be done) and just keeping it a community college for lower incomes, and a place where marginal students can work on fundamentals/grades, then apply to the MotherShip campus.

We have discussed turning your "campus" into a drug rehab and weight loss facility servicing Cabell County. Just not sure there is enough infrastructure to accomplish that on the scale we'd need.

He has a perfect record against Marshall, just like Stew did...

Marshall, the only thing that matters to dole. 13-24 against P5 the last 3 seasons? Don't care, we beat Marshall 3 years ago. 6-16 against P5 teams with a winning record? Don't care, we are 12-0 against Marshall. 0-4 in conference? Don't care, Dana has never lost to Marshall.

Says the hypocrite who is so obsessed with WVU that he is spending his Friday night camped out on the board of a team you don't even play... Got hypocrisy?

What is it called when you spend 7 million dollars more than you earn and the taxpayers write you a check?






Marshall football.

The day WVU bought that school would be the single greatest day and resume builder for every student at the school. They would be WVU students.

Considering our primary contract is due with Fox Sports, I don't think the financial woes at ESPN will have a huge impact ... The SEC on the other hand ...

When your team's games are primarily on ION, you really can't blame them for not understanding the TV tie-ins of the big boys.
