5 years before LHN your AD came to ours, a guy nicknamed “Dollar Bill” for his love of any new revenue source if it was even halfway viable, and openly told him that this joint network would have to be funded by the schools and wouldn’t make a profit

Explain why that was an amazing deal that we should have taken

It was a couple years before. Dodds thought it might pay a little. It might cost a little. Dodds pursued it and it turned out to be very profitable. Byrne likes to say Dodds never offered me an $11 million a year deal but its really a typical pathetic Aggie way of explaining he turned down the chance to be on the ground floor of a great deal.
