You want to spend that sort of money. By all means, go right ahead.
Look at all the fricking $ Auburn threw at Gus after winning 1 SEC Championship. Pearl has won two and played in a Final Four. It's not just about ticket sales. A high profile basketball program will bring in $ from everywhere.
And I'm not comparing Pearl to Saban because Bama has been great before, (and for a lot of resasons) but Saban's success has had huge impacts on the University in many ways. Pearl's success in basketball will do the same.

And I think y'all were silly for paying Gus that much then. I'm supporting Pittman's pay raise because in a few years it will likely be the median for the SEC in football as an example and its not as big of a pay raise as what y'all are talking about.
8-9 million dollars a year, even for someone who has done as well as Pearl has, is a helluva lot of money to spend on a sport that doesn't generate the revenue to justify that expense.
