Tillman is a double-edged sword. I'd appreciate his money but he is an idiot when it comes to sports.

Tillman pays Kelvin Sampson $3M a year. We pay Jank just over $2M a year. Who’s the idiot?

plus if Sampson performed at the same level as excusa-vich he would be gone in a heartbeart. meanwhile on the hilltop the crickets chirp, our idiot AD ponders his naval and our bball program is racing to the bottom faster than the Titanic.

How much is Tillman paying Dana Holgorsen and how much are we paying Sonny Dykes? Didn't he say 8 wins gets you fired at UH? How many games has Holgorsen won the last couple seasons? How are the Houston Rockets doing under his ownership? He ran away the GM and subsequently coach and star player. He has a lot of money but not too many usable neurons.

I think I could handle a few missteps along the way in exchange for making the Final Four.

I don't think he factored into the decision to hire Sampson. His money has been a big factor in retaining him though. His money is very helpful. He's just much more arrogant than he is smart.

yes, Tillman is arrogant but to say he is not smart is totally incorrect. He started with virtually nothing and has as much or more wealth than any of our 'big guys', especially those who used to support our bball program. He is also much more interested in seeing cougar high be successful than our $$boosters.
