    Let's recap your posts: you believe TF is mainly responsible for Sampson's salary, but he does not pay it directly, and you don't care, and you wanted to post that for us.

    OK, well, my posts are: TF does not pay Sampson's salary.

    obviously interpreting it the way you want it. not even sure why it matters so much to you.

    being somehow offended at the thought of TF who is by far the #1 supporter, especially financially is not directly/indirectly paying salaries is pretty funny

    The thread title is: "Rockets money is going to Sampson." People in the thread should discuss "Rockets money is going to Sampson."

    So: do you believe that Rockets money is going to Sampson?

    like i said i couldn't careless where the money is coming from. However, we do know TF is the #1 person involved when it comes to boosting and donations. So you're welcome to take that however you want. you've clearly made it know here

    No, you don't know that TF is the #1 person involved. You're too careless in your posts.

    Posting again and again about something you supposedly don't care about. . . .
    Remember: you don't care :)

    So you do agree with me that TF is not paying Sampson's salary.
    And you agree that UH raised a billion dollars. . . . http://www.uhsystem.edu/news/articles/?/2019/february-2019/2-28-19-beyond-the-billion.php

    UH raised all that money and you assume its paying salaries. LOL taking a big bite of the gimmick i see

    You're way in over your head if you don't know TF is the biggest factor financially involved when it comes to UH sports. are you even affiliated with UH. its pretty sad to know your "20 years" and you don't even know the impact TF has on its sports program

    Just say it directly: is Rockets money going to Sampson? Yes or no. Be a man.

    Can you not tell that the title was written tongue-in-cheek?

    No, I can't. Apparently other people were not aware how funny it is either. Now that you mention it, ROFL.

    I heard that Fertitta didn't have enough money to pay certain players because he bought actual rocket ships for the players to work out in, and for U of H--in his capacity on the Board of Regents--Fertitta is paying for every player to study cougar-style wushu at Shaolin Temple in China, with pet cougars to accompany them as role models.

    Respectfully, you don’t know what you are talking about. TF has donated tens of millions of dollars to the UH athletics program and recently spent twenty million dollars of his own money to fix Hofheinz.

    TF is the chairman of the BOR as well and he has had a great deal of influence in who the head coaches are at UH and has even said so. When more money is needed to pay a coach or cover shortfalls, TF donates the money and has for years.

    Also I am quite familiar with the BOR as I have a very close life long friend on the board and had a relative on the BOR in the past.

    There is no DH without TF.... there is no Hoffheinz improvements, and Sampson would have one foot out the door.

    No one thinks that.
    You cannot possibly be this dense.
