What sort of digits are we talking in these 7 figures?

7-figures.  Hmmm.  Sounds like it's more than ONE MILLION DOLLARS!!!

This Toilet dude is a disaster trying to work the quote function.  Not that hard.
I was all thumbs on that one and new I would pay! Sorry.

You guys are really fascinated with toilets though. Does it have anything to do with your football program? Maybe you guys just like the taste of the water? Funny though. I guess. :eek:

I think the name is pretty witty... better than most around here.

Pure genius.

What if your employer promised you a double digit wage? would you automatically take it?

Alright, I know our recruiting class already sucked ass. But now Prince really has to give a sh1t about it. Not to mention we are about a second away from losing our only real Big XII caliber recruit in Bowie.

So where do we go with this '09 recruiting class? Does Prince still ask kids to visit for the NU & ISU games? What's really the point of doing that for himself? That's the only person that he really cares for, so why would he bring in recruits to show them our program if he isn't going to be coaching them next season?

One things for sure, the next head coach better bring some recruits with them (G-Patt or Tuberville IMO.)


If you want to see our 09 recruiting class go to tcu's rivals page and pull up the commit list.   I'm guessing Patterson will have more kids coming in for the Air Force game as well.  No way he landed those 4 star kids to play at tcu he's been selling KSU since the summer.   
You are right on. KSU is quite the lure! Except for the cold weather. Oh, and the seeming lack of attractive ladies compared to FT Worth and Texas in general. Oh, and the prospect of having their family and friends watch their opponent hang 50-70 on them (in three quarters). Oh, and having to hear week after week from their coach to "let's go out there and try to win the Fourth Quarter and take away something positive". Oh, and... You get the point.


How many of those guys would start here next year for a Big 12 team? Waymon would have to love his chances, as well as the QB if Freeman leaves. He'd be to GP what Freeman was was Prince. He'd definitely have a leg up on the competition because he's "one of GP's guys."
As I have posted previously, I root for KSU unless they play the Frogs or another MWC opponent. From what I have seen, you need two or three classes like the one GP is compiling. There is little or no speed on the defensive side of the ball. BTW, if GP was to go to KSU I would be a bigger fan than I am now (never against the Frogs of course). He's been too good to us. He wouldn't take any recruits though. You guys don't understand what a straight shooter the guy is. He was completely disgusted with Fran when he stole several on his way to Alabama. No biggie, GP isn't truly available until 2010 unless he wants to forfiet the 7+ figure annuity tcu gave him if he stays until 2010. Also, if this class comes through, he can taste it.

If GP leaves it would be a matter of either taking them or letting somebody else have them.  Those kids are not going to stick with tcu without GP.   
Do you honestly think GP is the one and only recruiter for the team? I know you go to a Community College but come the F*** on. Plus, we aren't talking Manhattan Kansas. We are talking one of the largest metro areas in the Country. Very few, if any would follow GP to that wasteland and he knows it. That is why he isn't coming this year and maybe ever. We've been through this. Why are you guys in such denial? Are you that afraid you can't get anyone else worth a damn? Keep your chin up. Somebody will look under the hood and won't recognize the gawdawful disaster there. I'm rooting for you.

We have heard roughly half of Stoops' which would make it around 5 mil. Most of us think closer to 2.5.

Listen up rubes. I am just talking about the annuity. I don't know if they offer accounting there but I don't have time to teach. The annuity / bonus (for staying 10 years as HC) is between 2.5 and 5 mil which he forfiets if he leaves. His salary will be 2-2.5mill. The admin was already making arrangements to at least match June Jones at SMU (2mm). You guys would have to throw stupid Aggie like money to lure him there. 3-3.5mm? Ain't happening (this year).
