What's the first thing you would change?

1. Reduce all salaries to no more than $400k a year and take all that money to invest in academics, professors and help student athletes appreciate their education as this will be their source of income for 90% of the NCAA athletes. And not build multi-million stadiums for mediocre teams.

Sooooo, you want to move down to Division II? Because putting a hard cap on salaries at $400k would be like assigning TAMU athletics the death penalty.

You spend money to make money. The football program at A&M and pretty much every other P5 program makes a lot of money. And funds all the women's and non revenue scholarships and sports.

There are STEM professors earning over $400k a year. Which of those would you like to fire right now?

*Assuming you've already fired the president, provosts, etc.

Capping salaries like that would cause our athletic department to loose money. Our athletic department currently makes money. Also, having good athletic programs makes our school more enticing for academic driven students as well.

Competition drives quality.. Quality = money to the university. Look at how far we've come from the big12 years. Regardless of the foolish moves to become a huge Texas Tech(quantity over quality), we are still rolling in cash like never before.

You're idea is like raising up minimum wage... it would only hurt us regardless of the short term influx of cash.

Only 1 BioBio prof, and they rake in millions of research $. Nobody in engineering, outside administrators, that earn north of $400K per Texas Tribune.

Burn the beveled logo, the end zones that say "Texas A&M", and the students who trail off on the locomotive sound during yells all in one big fire.

Then when everything is about to burn out its last ember, I'm calling uncle Rob and he's going to do something with gasoline.

Figure out who the hell our bag men are and make them feel better about the direction of our program.

Oh and fire whoever does our contracts for everything, and if that is myself then fire myself.

Screw it, fire myself anyways.

Pretty sure our coaches already make more than our astronomers.

And I'm not the biobio prof referred to above.
