There's no evidence that Ucla-Addidas was the largest deal in the country. In 2015 Michigan signed the largest deal, then Texas, then in January 2017 tOSU signed the largest ever deal at $252mm. Ucla-UA came in at $280mm sometime after that. So, factually, no deal Ucla had was ever the biggest ever.
When UA vacated the contract it cost them $68mm. No public company, subject to fiduciary responsibility and SEC oversight would willingly vaporized $68mm of stockholder capital because of a football coach.
You guys are just terribly uninformed, ignorant and willfully so.
