Way to gravy train off the rest of the league, LaSuck. Just keep playing games in Tom Gola's Garage and cashing those welfare checks from Xavier's and St. Joes hard work.

I'd also like to see the TV dollars now from the CCCPCBSCSTV deal. I hope they're substantial because BESPN is obviously pissed off at the league and the coverage is worse now than before. Hell, if the league was basically breaking even before on TV and the product was more available, why change?

And how about Blutarsky's salary? Nice gig if you can get it.

Does anyone know if those NCAA income figures are from 08, 07 or 06??? Also, why dothe three Philadelphia schools, especially LaSalle, get more revenue than most ofthe other schools/ LaSalle hasn't made the NCAA since the 50s...The NIT doesn't pay didley . So how can LaSalle and Temple get more than the rest except Xavier? Also, when's Blutarsky's last day? I want to post a faretheewell message
