The Ford contract and bball ticket prices are two things that should be entirely directed at Holder. Why he has not lowered basketball ticket prices since the quality of product has gone downhill as well as the arrival of the Thunder is beyond me. He has lost almost a decade worth of students as future basketball donors because he priced everyone out. Sucks.
And while I do agree we should keep Gundy, I'm not going to act like he's Nick Saban. 1-8 against our rival? Gotta do better than that. As he's shown with his attitude towards the media, he's a pretty stubborn guy. I wouldn't blame the almost leaving on Holder either. I'm sure Gundy was just being a stubborn ass like always.
