Didn't think so either BUT I can't see Okie St coming close to matching that offer.

Crazy shite going on everywhere.

Pickens isn't even a billionaire anymore. His net worth is now estimated at $500,000,000. That is still a hell of a lot of zeros.

They can't compete, money wise, with Tennessee.

"His Oklahoma State mentor energy billionaire Boone Pickens could match the 8 million but would he?

I think not.

If the Vols are offering 8 million, Gundy better take it."

I hear the natural gas money is drying up. Prices are rock bottom and regulations are so bad that the companies are going out of business. Pickens may need to borrow money from the Mullett before too long. I don't look for him to match that at all.

If he wrote a check himself for $10,000,000, that would be 2% of that net worth. He'd never miss it. That's just one guy, if he's willing to write the check. And they can't compete financially with Tennessee?

Great pickup for the Vols if true. Should beat Saban year one.

Gundy and Pickens have a thorny relationship.

this should be a leverage point for VOLOLOL

Sure he could if he is stupid I guess.

But Tennessee has bigger money boosters and it's not even close. Haslem estimated at 6 billion, Charlie Ergen estimated at 16 billion. I could name others also.

And herein lies the rub.....people with that kind of money aren't used to being "told" anything.
