Man, the stock for our coach's camp went up pretty high with the SD hire. If Tony Franklin is also at the camps we could run about six camps and have the endzone project paid off in about 3 years. :icon_wink:

Oh, and if we can get a televised coach's show, I bet we could probably swing nationwide syndication!

Not positive about this but pretty sure money from coaches camps goes to the coaches, not the school.

My older bro went to U-Arkansas...pretty sure they had the cost of (2) home football tickets per game included in student tuition.

ah. Gotcha.

I wish we could install a fee. A once a year $50 fee/student would give us an extra $500K to work with.

Heck, make it each quarter or $100 a quarter...still works out to around a $1 a day. Seriously, these days $50 is not that much for a quarter's worth of sports.

We should do something like this. Require students to buy "season tickets" to FB, MBB, WBB, and Baseball. Students are required to buy it, it is included in tuition. Charge it, then continue letting students in with just a valid ID. Just do away with the fee if it hasn't already been.

Hey, I was kind of in the ballpark... :icon_wink:

Sure seems like we had student fees in my day. (1967-1971) What happened? We got in games free.

You only paid $50 per quarter tuition.

You only paid $50 per quarter tuition.

That's about right. My sister just sent me her bill for the first fall quarter 1974 when she was a freshman. The total cost, including tuition, dorm and seven day meal plan was $387. Tuition was the cheapest part of the cost.

You are correct. I left out a couple of steps in my plan, on step of which is to add in a clause to his contract that we get a percentage from the camps for helping host them. Mostly, though, I was just kidding. :icon_wink:
