Re: From the "You can't make this up" Scott Cowen files

Our peers grew their endowments at multiples of the growth rate of the endowment under SC over the same time frame. But that's not true, as Tulane's growth was in line with the other high profile southern private schools (Emory, WashU, Vanderbilt, Rice and Duke). From an ancient thread: Looking at ...

WOW! I wonder if he was the lucky recipient of the $5 million/year offer?

Re: Tonights NCAA Basketball Championship Game: Who do you like?

Cmon, sports fans, pick a team. I think the lack of response to this thread helps me understand how few watch other NCAA teams.

D, We don't have the budget of a P5. We're not going to fly to TCU or Baylor or Oklahoma for a midweek game. I'd love to see us do a weekend series against these schools, though. We cannot play a game in Dallas mid-week? Ok, then book home and home weekend pre-conference series against these teams....

If we need midweek games against higher profile programs, there's no shortage in the neighborhood. USM, Ole Miss, Miss State, UT, OU, Baylor, TCU, just to name a few. They're all short drives or short plane rides away, (and there's plenty of others) we need to get on the schedule and screw LSU. But ...

Anything is possible but the tape is now out there and the NCAA is on it. He's got to come up with a plausible explanation or he's done.
