Aggies don't want to pay $5000 to kid that hit halfcourt shot

Always trying to avoid paying
"I heard at Saturday's game that Grant Betz, the student who hit a half-court shot at the LSU game to win $5,000 toward his education, might not qualify for the prize because to be eligible the contestant had to be 4-5 years removed from organized basketball.
I find that strange since it would eliminate all students to compete other than grad students.
Betz, a freshman, played three seasons at Plano West along with current A&M men's basketball players Tyler Davis and D.J. Hogg. However, Betz averaged 1.1 points in 57 games. He's hardly LeBron James, and for that matter, I wonder how many shots it would take for LeBron to hit a half-court shot?"

There is no way the negative PR is worth the 5 grand. Even if its being handled by the insurance company, somebody needed to just cut the check before it got out.
Now even if you pay, you still look bad. For $5,000 it wasn't worth it.

Why are you still too cowardly to change your team allegiance to what it actually is?
