Yes, the large contracts are big brand football schools with the main exception (off the top of my head) being Louisville and Adidas. W/o reviewing the Boise deal it's close to what Memphis got under Cal...something like $11m+ extras for events and such.
Does the Louisville contract with adidas include the bag money for their recruits. The hookers and blow take up a lot of resources.
Don't know about bag money, but Penny mentioned in an interview on 92.9 about how his relationship with Nike vaults the Tigers up several levels, not to the UK/KU/UNC level but insinuated that it will help with upper level recruits...at least that's how the hosts interpreted it after.
