Is this correct? Report says SMU has upped its offer to 2.0 Million and Hawaii has upped for a third time to 1.7 Million?

I heard that on the UH board too. Got to think the guys at dinner will pay what it takes at this point.

They are just quoting the Hawaii news report that just might be speculation. Our offer has always been between 1.7 and 2.0.

He loves Hawaii, not sure we can buy that from him.
Hopefully he really dislikes their AD

No the reports I've seen said SMU offer was 1.7 Million plus 2 Million to be split with assistants at least I thought. Just trying to compare apples to apples to see if Hawaii matched.

He hates the pathetic facilities Hawaii has neglected....
they had hoped the beaches would make up for it......
obviously it didn't work.
Yeah the guy lived in paradise but worked in a hell-hole.
June Jones is letting his feet do his talking....and choosing SMU over "paradise"!

"Hawaii Gov. Linda Lingle called to see what she could do"
Who has Laura's phone number??? She needs to have her husband make a call!
