About those semi-pro teams. They barely make their way. Why is it the cities that have them fight to keep them? Because they generate money for the city through good will, recycling money earned, other sales like hotel rooms, etc. It's just not that big a leap to see UAA does the same thing. Y

I agree with Steve. If the athletic program were a drain on the university, it would be different. However, if you are going to have an athletic program, it might as well be one that's successful financially as well as on the field. You spend money to make money. I do think it would be legitimate t

Isn't this a specious argument when the UAA makes a donation each year that is essentially its leftover money? This year's donation could be $550,000 more, but for this choice. It's almost like the UAA find ways to spend money to avoid donating it to the University. -Zeb On Jun 17, 2010,

While I agree that FSU would add little to the SEC, Miami would add a large, mostly Hispanic, TV market. With added TV, Florida might be able to recruit the Miami area a little better. I don't think it would help Miami near as much as the Big East did in their recruiting. jb From: gatorn.

I'd like to play them every year, as we are better than UM year in and year out. However, our goofy we play a couple times every decade somehow always results in us playing them when they are good and we are not, giving a distorted result to the series. Spurrier or Meyer our coach? Better

The PAC10 needs the money. Texas has held the Big 12 ransom to the point that their deal will ensure that they have plenty of cash, and no championship game to "trip them up" on their way to the BCS title game (not to mention not having to face a resurgent Nebraska team in conference any more).
