Invest in the things that bring a good name to the church. Invest in good people. Don’t ask us for 20$mil and then not pull your own weight. Don’t say the AD is self funded and then want to stop AD decisions. Don’t need to get in the arms race, but get out of the way of being successful and bringing good things to your flagship university - beyond athletics

You could very well be correct with that point. Basically, you are viewing
