Great, setting the rational to raise ticket prices yet again. College tickets are more than many pro teams.

Of course this is bad for smaller school teams, but for most large programs, these costs are small compare to revenues and the coaching staff salaries.

This is the most important college sports story you will find today. And it proves how, in time, poor, corrupt, ignorant leadership in America trickles down to everything in our society. Pretty soon football players will be wearing their pads on those flights from Columbus to L.A. to save on baggage fees.

346k? That's a lot of $ for a game they never really showed up for.

Another number that caused a double take, the final score.

$346,000! That's almost as much as they gave to Pryor to come to tOSU!

This is a joke for big time schools..Give me a break. They pay multi year multi million dollar contracts to coaches . Let them go early, eat the contract and then do it all again-over and over. They are not upset about the money, they are just upset that more money is going to airlines and the like...Too easy to cut back if they really wanted to. This is about setting the stage for the fan/student body and alumni to throw some more cash at them...;

346k for a program that cleared over 100 million last year. Sure its alot, but cmon...

Warden you're being nice you know da mn well we gave him a cool mill

84,

Pryor is worth more than 346K! Even I know that. He's going to be a pain in UM's butt.

Btw, a LB recruit UM has in the verbal column wants to be the official Pryor hunter. I like his attitude!:P

If your new linebacker wants to key on TP next year then, all you'll see is Boom (heron) goes the dynomite!

I'm not sure this makes any sense. It seems to me that normal people would want to know how much something is going to cost before they purchase it. Let's say a person goes to a Toyota dealership and tells the salesman, "I'll take this brand new Camry, just send me the bill." A week later he gets a bill for $100,000.00 for the Camry.

Welcome to big business, LOL. They dont care what it costs, they just do whatever they feel like.

Interesting, there's around 150 to 180 seats on a typical commercial plane. Multiply that by $500 round trip and you get around $190,000 ... but I'm sure THE ohio state university can figure out math on it's own.

Apparently their math sucks if they were more than $150,000.00 off.

maybe the pilot charged us extra after our lousy performance

If it was based on performance, they should have made them take buses back.
