    Now consider the two games remaining.

    - We play there for expenses and they play in Ruston for expenses. We make zero money when we play in Waco and we are trying to make up the shortage on the horrible $500k deal along with no money in year 3.

    A very old example (from 2009) of what Dooley did with Mississippi State originally was a game in Ruston and two trips to Starkville where we receive $500K and $700K. The deal was later renegotiated, but it was still a better deal and MUCH better than the apparent resume' building our AD is doing.

    The going rate for guarantee games is already up to ~$1.5 million... We are only getting 1/3 of that with the Baylor deal... My guess is Tommy was assuming he won't be around Ruston anymore by 2020 to have to balance the budget that year.

    LSU will pay UTSA a $1.4 million guarantee for the game, according to a copy of the contract obtained from LSU.

    That's not who we are.

    And? They are like twice as far away from Baton Rouge, as well as out of state. Of course they'd get more.

    It won't cost UTSA $250,000 more to travel a little further to BR than Tech.

    Who will sell more tickets and make more $$$$$$ for LSU? Tech, and it's not even close.

    $250k more to travel about 240 more miles than us?

    There you go. Play U of Texas for an extra $250K-$300K instead of LSU.

    It amazes me that we'll sign a paltry $500K contract to play Baylor/MS State TWICE away and once at home, but refuse to sign $1.4M-$1.7M single game contracts. Imagine how many LOUISIANA TECH HOME GAMES we could fund with 2X-3X revenue and have ZERO future return game obligations!!! This is ignorant financial mismanagement.

    Thanks for the response Tommy. Your negotiating skills suck.

    Yes, but that strategy would not serve to advance TMac's career.

    By declining to play hardball with other ADs, he builds up a cache of favors that he can call in later.
