Here's an illuninating article on the Texas Athletic machine. Read it, it's a little long, but even for me it's an eye opener. Texas Athletics
Interesting article Terry. It's amazing how the budgets for College Athletics has increased over the years. 13 years ago Bowden was the first coach to one million a year. Now that's almost chump change. Two million is kind of the starting level at a big school. Some of the faculty can complain if they want about the tutors for the athletes, but I am personally glad. Way to many of them used to get out of school and not be able to read or write. That was sad. And if they get more help than the average student it may not sound fair, but like the article says a lot of them are below the average student, and the time demands of playing football is extensive. I can't believe how many stadiums are now in the 90 thousand range and it's growing all the time.
