SI: ‘How the Hell Did We Get Here?’: Inside Sonny Dykes’s Turnaround Year at TCU

[tjcoffice]

I saw no reference to Stephen F. Austin or Sam Houston State in the SI article. It does say: "The school went from competing against league foes such as New Mexico and Hawai’i to facing conference powerhouses like Texas and Oklahoma."

blood pressure up?

interesting how if you disagree around here and then provide examples that comes across as being upset

Are you arguing with one of your multiple personas or did you forget you weren’t logged in as Steele?

”Only a decade ago, the private school tucked within the bustling cowtown of Fort Worth was classified as a mid-major program and still holds a fraction of the athletic budget of most of its competitors.”

Big 12 athletic budgets, Per 247:

BIG 12
1. Texas: $184,373,919
2. Oklahoma: $157,594,460
3. TCU: $115,240,541
4. Kansas: $111,603,499
5. West Virginia: $98,851,233
6. Baylor: $95,214,007
7. Oklahoma State: $84,671,698
8. Texas Tech: $77,416,037
9. Kansas State: $76,414,388
10. Iowa State: $71,773,252

I wonder where the money is spent that puts TCU’s budget at 20, 30.5 and 38 million more than Baylor, Oky State and Tech’s, respectively. That is 21%, 36% and 49% higher.

I don't know, but if it means going to bowls and other things, keep it up.

I think the story’s been edited to fix those glaring errors.

this, because it was there before which makes it even more embarrassing a mistake

Thought this was a good read along with the Texas Monthly article.

Texas a powerhouse? Lolz…

Do you even Texas, bro? Don't you remember, they're back! They're moving to a conference where they'll be treated with the respect they deserve! They're finally getting away from this lesser conference where they'll be able to win against the big boys, not lose to TCU and Kansas on the regular!

BIG XII REFS SUCK! THIS CONFERENCE SUCKS! COCKROACHES SUCK!

(did I do that right?)
