Oil is down. That Houston guy ain't got shite to pay right now.


Tillman fertitta (sp?) is not in oil and gas. Restaurants, hotels and casinos. He is very successfull in many areas.

it may not be a money issue if the coach wants to compete against the best in the best conference.

From Wikipedia

Tilman Joseph Fertitta (born June 25, 1957) is an American businessman, entrepreneur, television personality and the chairman, CEO and sole owner of Landry's, Inc., one of the nation’s largest restaurant corporations.[2][3] In 2013, his net worth was estimated at $2.4 billion, placing him at No. 235 on the Forbes 400 list of the wealthiest Americans;[4] Forbes calls him the “World’s Richest Restaurateur”.[5] Fertitta is also chairman of the Board of Regents of the University of Houston System.[6] After landing a reality tv show on CNBC, Fertitta became the star of Billion Dollar Buyer.
