[QUOTE="4shotB, post: 1004769, member: 844"] This post speaks to the dilemma (imo) of managing the GTAA. I think the fans of the superpowers don't bat an eye about one of theirs making $1MM. But if I knew we had a player on the roster making $1MM it would be the end of my support for GT FB (or BB or whatever). I have to believe (perhaps falsely) that a large % of fans in my age group feel likewise. This demographic (I believe) is where most of the $upport of the program originates. But you need Jimmy's and Joe's if you want to play at the highest level. But adjusting your pay scale to the likes of Texas, OU, OSU, Uga, etc. dries up funding from the old guard (potentially). How will the GTAA handle this predicament?? I think one possible solution is to find (somehow) a "super" donor or 2 or 3 to provide the lion's share of the funding. Think the Nike guy at Oregon or the Pickens guy at Okie State to offset the loss of a bunch of smaller (although not insignificant) donors. Any other ideas? [/QUOTE]
