$8,000,000 for back to back Insight bowls

[Golfer]

My thoughts are the salary criticism is old. And who really cares what he is paid? Does it come out of your pocket? Didn't think so.

Once again, I don't necessarily agree with the OP, but his salary does come from season ticket holders, and especially season ticket holders who are contributors above the mandatory level.

How about Ok paying Stoops almost $5M for Insight? We got a deal!

i can only imagine if we were ranked #1 pre season and ended up in the insight bowl...

Count me as another who doesn't give a rip what he's paid....that crap's getting old. The media seems to have a woody for it too. Find something else to write about.

Spoken like a truly dedicated, non-donating "fan."

LOL. We were preseason top 10 last year, with some dark horse NC picks, so..........

Good point. I resemble that remark.

How about Texas paying Mack Brown over $10 million for 1 appearance in the Holiday Bowl?

So you proved his point against you.... that it does happen elsewhere.... even Oklahoma!

Get Over It! Envy will consume you from the inside out!

Very happy with this matchup. Win or lose, it is great exposure for the program against a tremendous team (OU).

Kirk earned it this season - sorry to pop your bubble

love the hawks but dumb stuff like this makes me want to stay away from the net and just watch games. wonder if these people know what it means to coach a game beyond their son's 4th grade team

How about paying Bert Bielema $5 million for back to back Rose Bowl berths? Paul Chryst can stay in Madison, though, I'll take O'Keefe over him.

Maybe you are right. But since this thread is about the last two years, you'd be right only if this type of bowl "happened" to OU two years in a row. Would you kindly tell me what bowl OU played in last year?

It only takes a few clicks to look it up on that new thing called "Internet".

Sounds like you have a better grasp of the Internet than me. Do you think the "Internet" would also provide the definition of "sarcasm?" Look up who OU played last year, then look up "sarcasm," then please provide us a report.
