Or, and this is crazy so stay with me here, we could have added no one.
The fact that a bunch of people actually bought in to "Yeah we have a big endowment, oh sure we'll spend a bunch of it on athletics" and just ran with it is mind-boggling. A 3rd grader would know enough to say "OK, how about you start upgrading your program with all that money for a few years and we'll be very interested."
I was okay with staying at 9 at that time as well.
We rushed in a reactionary way and made a poor decision. We would have been okay running at 9 until a clear 10th showed up.
