When the Big XII eventually chose West Virginia over Louisville the Cardinals were technically screwed because the Big XII chose WVU and Louisville could have been screwed. However, because Maryland left the ACC and Louisville had given notice then went balls out to out-maneuver UConn and when Jurich gave notice a year earlier he was able to leverage the AAC exit from 15 million to 11 million and saved Louisville 4 million. How much of that 4 million do you think he will ask for as a bonus. [/QUOTE]
