Gary is already receiving, in all, 1.7.

TCU would have no problem paying him more, and we wouldn't need to "raise" it - he's turned down 2+ MM offers within the past four years: he's not interested in the money, he's interested in the school.

"Fran is the Man for this job."

Pay no attention to the little man behind the curtain...

"Nice jab at the Toads!"
