re: Are season ticket holders ok with tradition fund increases to get their #1 guy?

The boosters wanted Miles out. They will (and should) fund the full buyout, so the AD should not have to finance that. The salary of a new HC will be more than what we were paying Miles, but I would guess that the support salaries will also go down. Miles overpayed his staff for what we got. Despite the precedent, all those contracts are null & void thanks to the Les clause in them & will need to be renegotiated.

Are price increases coming? Probably. Will they be prohibitive? Doubtful. No one who is paying for season tickets today will see the increase come in for 2017 & say "I can't afford THAT!" and drop their tickets. Will they bitch? Yes. Will they bail out? No.
