I'm sure there are a few more but not many.
Uhhhh, Cal to UK?
I think he was referring to high major as in P5.

UNLV is only paying 900K for a coach ..... U .... N... L.... V
A once proud program that had a seating section called "Gucci Row"
Conference realignment and tv contracts have ruined them along with the NCAA witch hunt.

So we're considered high major when we snatch Tubby but not when we lose Cal?

I see your point.
And I think we are considered a high major job by many. Including myself. We certainly pay like it. Have facilities and rabid fans like it. And high major success historically at times.
I guess we are a unique situation. Kinda like most would have considered UNLV was. Like BB said these super conference conglomerates are ruining parts of colleg athletics and I fear will only get worse. We have to get in the "club".
