FWIW, my experience is that these arrangements have always been a flat fee.

Right, I just mean the schools often figure out the fee based on what they expect to make.

Not to be critical, but you have a lot more wins in your projections than you do losses, not sure that is possible!!!!!  ;D

Coach Finstock - "There are three rules that I live by: never get less than twelve hours sleep; never play cards with a guy who has the same first name as a city; and never get involved with a woman with a tattoo of a dagger on her body. Now you stick to that and everything else is cream cheese."

Good publicity for the ARC - surprised that Ruggles (Co-POY with Garvey) is suddenly behind Schimonitz & Cook, but that's what winning the national title will do for you.

Cook is a forward, remember.  Position matters.

Great for the league.  Finally getting some recognition that is long overdue.  Now hopefully it all holds true and the conference continues to make a name for itself.

Well, seems like they did that on their own. They made a new name in the offseason ;)

And winning the national championship is exactly why you should not be surprised.  8-)

Besides that, I think Ruggles is widely renowned for his scoring and 3 point shooting where Schimonitz, and especially Cook, are viewed as more complete players and players whose contributions come more often at critical junctures of a game than do Ruggles'. Also, while Ruggles is a great 3 point shooter and scorer, he had like 5 teammates who started or played significant minutes who had better overall shooting percentages. And, while he may be an above average or even good defender, I've not heard or read of his name being associated with defense. Completely accurate or not, you hear the name 'Ruggles' and you think exceptional 3 point shooter, and high scorer. So while he may very well be more of a complete player, I think the general perception of him basically ends with the tag of great long range shooter. He may then be a victim of the concept of perception being reality.
