Message: [QUOTE="garddog, post: 3631645, member: 8860"] Several crazy things in that manifesto. They said Stanford could pay for all this with their endowments. Whoever wrote that has no clue how endowments work. Most have stipulations from the donors on how it's spent. You can't just raid the cookie jar for the money. Almost all require only the interest be used, not the principal. If they get 50% of the revenue, there won't be other sports, football pays for everything. Colleges should just let them walk, plenty kids would love an opportunity to play and get an education, room, board, books, etc paid for. Even a cheap university costs nearly 40k a year now. [/QUOTE]
