Mike Farrell on ESPNU radio. The show was talking about some of the SEC issues such as FLA coach future buyout issues, Ole Miss trying to retain Kiffin and Tennessee taxing ticket holders for next season. Talked about how athletic depts should have been saving all the $ they made the past decade or two so could better handle NIL and soon revenue sharing versus leaning on boosters. Rick Neuheisel mentioned Heather getting fired due to lack of fundraising and that’s when Farrell called us a poverty program. Tried to take a little step back and say at least when compared to Tennessee. Mentioned we play in an NFL stadium w/poor attendance that leads to other deficits like low concessions, etc. Dude sounded like a dick most of the interview. He even mentioned tongue in cheek that most fan bases hate him.
