If you tear down your goalposts and you're near a body of water, the goalposts in question must be deposited there. I don't make the rules.

I'm not a fan of it either...as a general rule. But I was all for it tonight, and was hoping it would happen. Nessler said it best..."15 years of misery are over."

Worth every penny that the AD has to pay.  They can definitely afford it. Last time I checked, about 5 years ago, Vol AD revenue was a cool $110 million. I am sure it's higher now.
