Anyone on here going to the game? I am in El Paso.
I see what you're saying, but I think it's really a no-win for him. If he stays silent, the inbred mouth-breathers running the bowl will lie about what happened and spin it as him hanging out...
This is literally the stupidest idea I have ever heard.
BUMP
This sort of coincides with a thought I had about the beIN contract... that they would be most interested in schools with a high concentration of international students.
Look how many times...
While it is not a true analogy, it seems like every single time our chances have been left up to some committee's decision since I began at Tech in 1997... we've gotten screwed. Not one but three...
The ASN is far, far superior in this regard. WUPL in New Orleans picked up just about every game we were in. Having an over-the-air game that anyone can casually click through on a Saturday...
I think we have a slim shot only because we have one specific "signature win" at Ohio State. They are sitting at 73 now with 10 losses. They are the only team we beat who can rapidly ascend in...
Skip Holtz is our version of Jeff Bower. We will have 7-9 wins pretty much every year, with conference championships, but there is just something missing for us to break through and get into an...
A couple of things:
1. This article was from December 6. Arkansas State knew they were in the New Orleans Bowl roughly November 22 and we didn't know for certain that we were in the New Orleans...
This thread made me think specifically about the 2005 team. They finished 7-4 (6-2 WAC). They had a Top 25 win (#23 Fresno). In today's world, they would have easily been in a bowl (I'd...
Oh ok, they added the last sentence since last time I checked the website :)
I was wondering if anyone had info on the alumni indoor tailgate before the game? What does it entail i.e. food/beverages, entertainment, etc.? It's going to be going on simultaneously with...
You see, I looked at this from the Sun Belt angle and why Mr. Peanut didn't jump on it. They can always use a few extra $$. What if they had swapped Ark. St. With Colorado St. In the New Orleans...
Ok.. it just seems like a stretch.. a start-up bowl with a questionable tv deal. Even the Christmas Eve primetime on ESPN Hawaii Bowl versus an AAC team seems like a better deal.
Ok... I am a bit confused why on earth would the MWC champion go to Arizona Bowl? Why would they forgo the Las Vegas Bowl on national broadcast television ABC versus a Pac12 team?
This is where the whole 5-7 rule comes into play. You would think Rice would be like #1 on the NCAA list.
I see Dawg06's point, but I think there should be a more nuanced thought process.
The order:
1) Any P-5 team... anywhere, anytime.
A match-up against a perennial top 25 team in Va. Tech in...
This is a great analysis.. And when you look at the pay, we are already easily currently in-line with most of these types of jobs in the A-10 etc.
Larger schools may offer him, but larger...
Dwayne- I am looking at the whole picture, and this is where we disagree.
You believe the Big East's brand will gradually diminish and March Madness will morph into 64 of the 70 P-5 schools...
Well, for starters, $10,000+ stipend starts looking suspiciously like a salary, opening that door for workman's comp and unions.
If this is truly "the list" then the whole thing is a farce to begin with... they were never serious about any closings.
How about rural north Louisiana campuses with dwindling enrollment and...
That is an interesting list for "low-hanging fruit." Ain't happening, try a different four!
Southern isn't going anywhere. Period.
UNO? How does closing the top public four-year university in...
Dwayne, I do think the one thing that will keep some resemblance of "checks and balances" will be the sport of MBB...
Football is king, but there are just way too many teams/conferences outside...
