“Remember the mission of the university. Though that may differ slightly depending on whom you ask, we must make academics the foremost priority at OU. This is not accomplished by diverting the largest portion of the general fee to pay for six-figure coaching salaries while graduate students struggle to pay rent.”

Beautifully written, a model of reasoned concision.

But, at a school like Ohio University, ornamental only. Geisha-prose.

    Six-figure coaching salaries? There’s your problem right there. You’ve gotta pay seven figures if you want to stay competitive.

    I think the guy who drives the Sooner Schooner makes six figures, and the horses, Boomer and Sooner, both have agents.

    It’s actually surprising that the lily-white Boomer and Sooner have themselves not entered into the racism accusations at Oklahoma.
