For those who like AU gear and wear a lot of ties. There's an old AU vineyard vines tie that is super unique. Kind of hard to find (I think?) but I picked one up on eBay years ago.
It's definitely a conversation starter and the logos are small enough to not be offputting in the office/meetings.

This is revenue sharing, not profit sharing. That's the big issue here. You start pulling 25%-50% off the top line revenue and there won't be many schools left in the black. As someone said earlier, there would have to be cuts across the board in athletics departments.
