[QUOTE="RamblinRed, post: 922938, member: 1776"] Whether we like to admit this or not we never had a shot at Deion. We lack the money he was seeking. They are talking $5MM yr + an additional potential of $2MM more in incentives. I doubt we are paying CBK more than around $3MM. We pretty well know that GT was unable to pay Fritz in the $4MM range. GT is a below average ACC school in terms of pay and the ACC is well below the B10 and SEC in pay. GT is pretty likely to always be on the low end of revenue so it has to find ways to win more with less. That is just the reality of the current situation and not one I see changing in any significant way. I also don't believe that changing conferences would help GT in any real way. If we change conferences we are no longer competing with other ACC schools, we are competing primarily with schools from that conference and so we would simply get the same amount of TV revenue as our conference mates and be at an even larger disadvantage in terms of non media revenue as the ACC has the smallest avg school size in the US. The other conferences have larger schools on average meaning they have larger fanbases that bring in more non-TV revenue. [/QUOTE]
