Two points in this story are interesting.
1. the new exit fee kicks in as soon as one of the new schools accepts the invitation. So what we heard about the invitation being conditional did not depend on all 3 or all 5 accepting.
2. story says no invitations had been extended yet. This puts the lie to the story from Houston saying UH already had an invitation.

bull. no one bills by the minute.

too much work to track, and how would you be able to bill 2000+ hours a year and still have time to post on ponyfans.com with the other 9 minutes.

The billable hour is dead. Or soon will be. I hope.

When are we getting the "official" invite to the BE? Is there any chance we don't get invited at this point? Go Ponies and Rangers!

Actually, most bill by the 6 minute increment, but I know of contracts that go down to smaller increments.
