Didn’t it supposedly go from 2 mill to 5 +? Would love to get in the head of one of the head shaking, “don’t do it” guys who knew it would be burning money.

I think the BB spending is still just average in the SEC.

The results aren’t close to average in SEC play.

I don’t think the decision was made by a group. I think Scott made this decision on his own. He had to double down on MM due to his incredibly inflated ego as well as the fact that WW was coaching in the state and his show cause was over.

Be pretty dense if you can't understand the point he's making, which is about winning and having a championship caliber coach

Yeah, but it's not YOUR money, so why worry about burning a few million on a decent player or two?

Setting money on fire was Woodys specialty

They care because wasted money gets the program bogged down and extends losing more than it has to.

5 mil for a roster that will have 100k season attendance totals, and produces the excitement of a root canal when playing well. And unwatchable when playing bad.

Makes 25 million for football look better and better.

Kentucky spent 22 million. Duke unlimited. 5 million is a drop in the bucket.

Woodward upped the NIL commitment for McLoser when he vetoed re-hiring Will Wade like the BOS wanted him to do.
