College football’s Jerry Jones? Texas Tech booster Cody Campbell demands return on investment
If you’re going to take millions from a booster who is helping fund your football team, you should expect pushback when you fail to live up to expectations.
For those who haven’t noticed, we are no longer living in our fathers’ or grandfathers’ era of college athletics, when bags of money were dropped off on the back doorstep.
The $100 handshakes are still prevalent, but they’re essentially the equivalent of walking into a bar and dropping a dollar into the tip jar.
So when Texas Tech booster, and chairman of the board of regents, Cody Campbell takes to social media to comment on the Red Raiders’ loss to Cincinnati this past weekend, I can assure you he is trying to assure those who critique the program that this type of result isn’t what he's paying for.
"There is no excuse or reason to lose a game like this. We have to be better. @TexasTechFB," Campbell wrote in a post on X.
That statement was from a man who has poured millions into the Texas Tech football team in order to compete for a national championship this season. So, when this "owner" decides to vent his frustration for the world to see, I can promise you he means it.
Remember the term "return on investment" in relation to donors putting their money to use with the only real return is seeing their favorite team hoist a trophy at seasons end?
This is essentially where Cody Campbell is at when he takes to social media to let it be known that a performance like that is not acceptable for a man who is writing the checks every month.
That brings us to the current state of college athletics, where the once outside voices who contributed without getting a final say in roster moves outside of helping pay a player's salary are now influential voices that in some cases speak for the programs they help fund.
You think Texas Tech football coach Joey McGuire isn’t having conversations this week with Cody Campbell on piecing together the roster for 2027, or renegotiating deals with current players for a return next season?
I can assure you those talks have, and will continue, to take place over the next three months.
And, I promise you they are happening all across the country between high-dollar boosters and football coaches looking for the money needed to secure the next transfer portal addition.
While there is this pressure to hold onto what once was in college athletics, the 'pureness' of a sport that was a majority of the time still breaking the rules in some form or fashion through parking lot deals or the funneling of money to an athletes family, the world is obviously changing in short order.
So, it should not come as shock when a more-involved booster who was also at the forefront of the Brendan Sorsby saga this past summer when the former college quarterback was caught gambling on his own football team while at Indiana decides to let it be known they are not happy with the current product.
Is it right?
No, especially when that same person decides to get on social media and question whether the football program should cut off access to its coaches in relation to a local Lubbock radio station.
But, this isn’t a scene out of the movie "Blue Chips," where the head coach takes to the postgame press conference to lambast a booster for being too involved in the program by way of providing benefits to the athletes.
We got to this point when the NCAA opened the front door and invited this in by way of NIL, which should have taken place a decade ago. Yes, players deserved to be paid for the amount of money they generated for athletic departments across the country.
No, I'm not implying the swimming star should be paid in the same manner as the starting linebacker. But it takes someone like Cody Campbell to help fund these contracts, even down to the softball team that is competing for a national championship.
And, I promise you this is taking place on the campus of your favorite team, though it's most likely not as brazen as Cody Campbell.
While the Texas billionaire has been spending a majority of his time trying to garner votes for the Protect College Sports Act for his own reasons that most likely have more to do with Texas Tech having a place in this new world, he's still just a very rich alum who has earned the right to do whatever he pleases with his own money.
If Campbell wants to spend millions to ensure his favorite team has the resources needed to compete at the highest level, I can assure you the Texas Tech athletic department isn’t going to put him on a leash when he expresses his thoughts.
Why would it?
He is essentially the unofficial "owner" of multiple Red Raiders athletic programs.
If you think Campbell’s influence is interesting now, I can promise you more boosters like him are coming down the pipeline.
The difference is that they may not hold press conferences like Jerry Jones in the aftermath of a loss.
They’ll simply take to social media—and expect their teams to listen.

Tennessee inmate convicted of murder escapes from prison, manhunt underway: Officials
A manhunt is underway for a Tennessee inmate serving a life sentence for murder after he escaped from prison.
The Tennessee Department of Correction said that Jacob Allen Morley, 28, escaped the Northwest Correctional Complex in Tiptonville, Tennessee, on Sunday. He was sentenced to life in prison after being convicted in 2025 of murdering Cody Birchfield three years earlier.
Prison staff discovered Morley was unaccounted for around 11:30 p.m. Sunday and immediately conducted an emergency count and search of the facility, according to a Tennessee Department of Correction statement given to Fox News Digital.
'AMERICA'S MOST WANTED' FUGITIVE CAPTURED ON SAILBOAT OFF NJ COAST AFTER 20 YEARS ON THE RUN
Security video showed Morley breaching a fence while still wearing prison clothing.
Morley is described as 5 feet, 11 inches tall and weighing 240 pounds, with brown hair and green eyes. The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation said he should be "considered dangerous," adding Morley is now on the state's most wanted list.
MANHUNT TARGETS ‘ARMED AND DANGEROUS’ MURDER SUSPECT NOW ON STATE’S MOST WANTED LIST
In addition to the first-degree murder conviction, he was also found guilty of burglary, vandalism, tampering with evidence and evading arrest.
Federal and state law enforcement is assisting to help find Morley, according to officials.
Birchfield disappeared in early February 2022 after he was last seen in Elizabethton, Tennessee. According to WJHL, investigators from the Carter County Sheriff's Office saw indications that a "violent crime" had occurred inside his house.
LISTEN TO THE NEW 'CRIME & JUSTICE WITH DONNA ROTUNNO' PODCAST
On March 2, 2022, Morley was arrested after a police chase that went to the North Carolina state line. After the arrest, Birchfield's body was found underneath Morley's home.
Morley's former girlfriend, Landree Sheperd, testified at Morley's trial and claimed that the defendant said at one point that "he f---ing killed him."
People with information about Morley's whereabouts are encouraged to contact 844-832-3463.

NBA champ takes issue with Obama's pitch to Michigan voters amid hotly contested Senate race
Kyle Kuzma, a one-time NBA champion and current Milwaukee Bucks forward, pushed back on former President Barack Obama’s glowing remarks about Sen. Elissa Slotkin, D-Mich., and Democrat Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed on Saturday.
Obama was at a rally in support of El-Sayed, who is up against Mike Rogers. The former president raised the possibility of El-Sayed and Slotkin as a "power duo" in the Senate, remarking on El-Sayed and Slotkin’s religious beliefs. El-Sayed is a Muslim and Slotkin is Jewish.

Kuzma, who is from Flint, Michigan, wrote on X that the last thing anyone from Michigan cares about is what religion their representatives in D.C. practice.
"This desperate pysop (sic) is unbearable to watch in Michigan. so tired of listening to it," Kuzma wrote. "1 in 4 black people in Michigan are below the poverty line and the message is Muslim/jewish duo is what we’re talking about.
"Last thing that Michiganders care about is a religious identity pitch. And on top of that Michigan is a state where the population of Muslims and Jews are both 1 percent. What are we talking about."

The election is Nov. 3 and it’s coming down to the wire in Michigan.
A Sept. 30 Fox News Poll revealed that Michigan voters have concerns about both candidates leading up to Election Day. At the time, El-Sayed held a one-point lead over Rogers.
To Kuzma’s point, those who took part in the Fox News Poll at the time said that cost of living was extremely important in their vote for Senate. President Donald Trump, immigration and U.S. policy toward Israel were also considered to be extremely important to voters.
Rogers previously lost to Slotkin in 2024 for the Senate. Trump won the state by less than two percentage points.

Ole Miss and Texas collide in massive college football showdown with Arch Manning's season at stake
Last week was honestly one of the craziest weeks of football I’ve ever seen. College football was absolutely wild. It seemed like essentially every team in the top-10 of the national ranks lost. There was upset after upset, and a few teams were on the verge of stumbling as well. Week 7 saw a bunch of top ranked matchups, so naturally there were going to be losses from top teams.
This week doesn’t have nearly as many ranked matchups, but there is a massive one for Ole Miss and Texas.
Ole Miss comes into this game ranked 7th in the nation, and they own a 5-1 record. Their lone loss in the season was to Florida. That came after their biggest win of the season, when they beat LSU. It was one of the most obvious let-down situations in football. In the past two weeks, the Rebels have rebounded. They beat Vanderbilt 52-17 following the loss to Florida. Then last week, they took down Missouri. That was an even more impressive win as they beat the Tigers 31-3.

The Rebels still own one of the better defenses in the country – even though they gave up 52 to Florida. Their quarterback, Trinidad Chambliss, has been about as good as you could hope for. He has four interceptions on the season, but only one of those came in the loss. He has a rushing touchdown in five of the six Ole Miss games. He has thrown for two or more touchdowns in five of the six games as well. Those are impressive numbers and he has made a big difference for the team. He will have a challenge against a good Texas defense, but the Longhorns have struggled.
Texas is arguably the most disappointing team in the country. They started the season once again with incredibly high expectations, but they fell apart. This is the last remaining game on the schedule that should be very difficult. I’m not trying to make excuses for the Longhorns, because their schedule has been tough, but with their talent, they shouldn’t have lost games, let alone back-to-back games.
OLE MISS DEFENSE TAKES CHARGE, SHUTS DOWN MISSOURI'S HIGH-POWERED RUSHING ATTACK IN 31-3 WIN
In the past two games, they lost both of them 27-24 to Oklahoma and Florida. Neither of those teams were ranked opponents, and both of the losses came in the state of Texas.
It seems almost unfathomable that the team could’ve lost both of these games. A lot of the blame is falling on Arch Manning, but I don’t know that it is fair to give him all the blame. Manning hasn’t been a difference-maker, but I also don’t think he has cost the team games. He has completed about 64% of passes with 11 touchdowns and five interceptions this season. He had two against Oklahoma, so maybe that one was his fault. He has been sacked 17 times in six games, but the blame really should be on the coach for having a poor game plan.
The line on this game has dropped significantly from the opening. Texas was a -9.5 favorite coming into this game when the lines opened. Now they are down to just -3.5. I don’t blame people for taking the points, and still think there is some value.
The Rebels have a good offense, and a solid defense. Still, when a season is on the line, and a team is at home, you kind of have to think they will put their best effort out there. It wouldn’t be at all surprising to see Steve Sarkisian fired if they lose this game. I do expect Texas to win, so the -160 isn’t a terrible look, but I think this will be a lower scoring game. I’ll back the under 54.5.

Cheryl Hines, Rachel Campos-Duffy spill on private Cabinet wives club navigating life in Washington
Spouses of Trump administration Cabinet members say they lean on one another as they navigate life in Washington, offering a behind-the-scenes look at their friendships on the latest episode of Fox News' "the Girls" podcast.
On Thursday's episode, actress Cheryl Hines, wife of Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., and Fox News host Rachel Campos-Duffy, wife of Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy, discussed how Cabinet spouses lean on one another through occasional lunches, girls' nights out and reunions at crowded White House events.
"We actually get together like once a month or, you know, we have a club that we're part of. It's like an international club and most of us are in it," Campos-Duffy said. "We see each other then, and then sometimes we'll go to lunch or next week I think we're just doing a girls' night out after."
'THE GIRLS' PODCAST DEBUTS AS CO-HOSTS TAKE ON LINDSAY CLANCY CASE, MS RACHEL'S POLITICAL ACTIVISM
Hines, known for her role on HBO's "Curb Your Enthusiasm," said seeing familiar faces at administration events can be comforting, as Cabinet spouses often gravitate toward one another in a crowd.
"As you guys know, there are so many events going on for the White House, for the Cabinet. So, whenever there's a big sea of people at a party, and I use the term loosely, you know, Rachel and I will gravitate and go, ‘How's it going? How's it going?’ It's nice to have a pal," Hines said.
Campos-Duffy added that while the spouses often see one another at events, they find it difficult to have meaningful conversations in a crowded room, so they make time to get together outside official functions.
"We do find that time, which is actually really great," Campos-Duffy said.
The conversation also offered a humorous glimpse into life at home with one of the administration's most outspoken advocates for healthy living. Kennedy has championed the "Make America Healthy Again" movement, urging Americans to cut back on ultra-processed foods and raising concerns about seed oils.
"Well, once in a while, he will catch me eating potato chips, and then I won't stop because, you know, it's okay. I'm not shoplifting. But he'll say, ‘Are you [going to] do this in front of me?’ I was like, ‘Yes.’ But yeah, he definitely makes it … He brings it to the forefront, shall we say," Hines said.
RUBIO REJECTS RFK'S 'CRAZY' DIET, JOKES POP-TARTS ARE 'ONE OF THE GREAT AMERICAN INNOVATIONS'
When Fox News host Harris Faulkner asked whether Kennedy ever gives in to his own cravings, Hines said the health secretary has a hard time stopping at just one bite.
"If you're eating, like, a piece of cake or something, the problem with Bobby is he can't have a bite. He has to have the whole thing," Hines said, laughing.
