    Re: Op/Ed: The Independence Bowl is in trouble

    Actually, I'd be fine either way (Indy Bowl vs ACC, or AFB vs Army). Frankly, both are very good options for LA Tech in a year that we don't deserve many good options.

    Re: Op/Ed: The Independence Bowl is in trouble

    Even if LA Tech wins the last 2 games and makes it to a bowl game, the Bulldogs are still not a fun team to watch this year. The guy below is having more fun than people attending Tech games this...

    They sure have a lot of firepower in this video. Lots of big names associated with Walk-On's. They've got Drew Brees, Dale Brown, Scott Van Pelt, Todd Graves (CEO of Raisin Canes), Notre Dame's Rudy...

    ....That kind of stuff happens when a business has no leadership with vision.

    Re: Op/Ed: The Independence Bowl is in trouble

    But everybody doesn't know that. Many could view it differently. I'm a big fan of Marcus Lemonis, and have been for a long time. I know his style. But, 90% of the folks living in the Shreveport area...

    Re: Op/Ed: The Independence Bowl is in trouble

    You missed the point.

    ....So, if you owned a business, you wouldn't care if you pissed off a lot of local customers or potential customers by getting into an unnecessary squabble with a bowl game...

    Re: Op/Ed: The Independence Bowl is in trouble

    Agreed. Which was a very foolish thing for the Board members to say. But in this case Lemonis needs to just shut up and move on. Quietly.

    Re: Op/Ed: The Independence Bowl is in trouble

    I'm surprised at this. From a business perspective, Marcus Lemonis needs to shut his mouth and just move on. It's okay to take your toys (or sponsorship) and leave the building.....but he doesn't...

    Re: Op/Ed: The Independence Bowl is in trouble

    I think that ship has sailed. LA Tech is well entrenched in CUSA now, and with 5 or 6 bowls to fill every year, Tech truly no longer "needs" the I-Bowl like it once did. IMO, LA Tech's brand has...

    Re: Op/Ed: The Independence Bowl is in trouble

    Yeah....I guess that "I-Bowl member" forgot that he wasn't talking about LA Tech this time. And he tried to use the same attitude. :laugh:

    Camping World owner Marcus Lemonis is all about "turning...

    The above post is from 12/29/2012. And here we are, 4-years later, truer words have never been spoken. :) LA Tech has recovered nicely. The I-Bowl....not so much. :rolleyes:

    Re: Op/Ed: The Independence Bowl is in trouble

    You are correct. Former LSU golfer Missy Setters is the Executive Director of the I-Bowl committee, and has been since 2006. She has been a member of the I-Bowl staff since 1996, serving previously...
