Someone Has Finally Listened - Southern Univeristy Coming to Ruston in 2015

[vlw]

We are going to see another huge difference in the two teams on September 5th. Another difference I'll be waiting for you to post is the payouts from those championship games.

We have a better TV deal as our bowl is on ABC and the payout is Million dollars to each team.

Welp! Looks like that was a short wait.

Hmm......verrrry interesting.


2014 College bowls payout

Can anyone produce contracts from other games Southern has played against G5 opponents in which they were guaranteed 5000 seats or a half mil? I know I can't, but would love to see what makes you so sure that Tech did the same? Can anyone produce the contract between Tech and Southern? Again, I can't, but obviously someone here knows exactly what the arrangement is. Just produce the evidence so we can all stop posting the feedback we are all getting from our inside sources.

Got confirmation again that about 3000 tickets total have gone to Southern fans. You now have 2 weeks to purchase 5000 more to get to the boasted 8000. Produce the documents and prove me wrong.

Reading is fundamental

Let me explain sumthin to you podnuh. We don't except any game out of our division that gives us less than 5,000 ticket unless it's a guarantee of at least $500k, and we all know that AIN'T a bill you can pay.


Let's not kid ourselves, there one reason and one reason only that LaTech invited us to JAS.

To do something that not even a CUSA school or even a BCS schools has done. Have a record breaking sellout at JAS.

So stop playing yourself.

My fault, did we guarantee Southern a half mil? Contract please?

No....again we got at least 5,000 ticket, regardless of what your sources said.


The other alternative would have been to pay around $225,000 and give 2,000 tickets and we keep the profits from our ticket sales.

I'm done. I trust my source over your unverified opinion. See you in 2 weeks for band practice.

I'm sure you do and that's all fine and dandy, but it doesn't mean your sources are correct. This ain't our first rodeo, we know our brand and what it's worth and we don't have to accept less.


What does your source say we are getting paid?

[Statboy]

I heard from a reliable source that Tech is allocating 40 RV spots in the Memorial Gym parking lot. Also that we supposedly sent SU 5k tickets and they have asked for 3k more.

I don't see why Tech couldn't set up parking in the Neilson-Carruthers lots. Those are flat and an easy walk to JAS.

Obviously your alumni sources is different then yours

Your brand? The movie drum line?

Our championship

Notice anything different in the background?

I do notice something different. SU band is much bigger and certainly more famous. If you are referencing attendance, it appears to me that there were more people at the Heart of Dallas Bowl even though it was the day after Christmas. The entire 2nd level of the SWAC championship appears empty with many seats open on lower level.

Your "Brand"............Pleeeeease. You have no brand other than your band.

Please stop posting this nonsense unless you are willing to post official, sourced attendance from the 2 games.

I found:

SWAC Championship, Dec 6th = 39,500
Heart of Dallas, Dec 26th, 1:00 = 31,300

Give me a break with all this "we set the rules because of our Brand".

Is it possible for you to quote me saying that?

Damn...they actually showed that movie in ruston?

Well hell that does it, you know everything you need to know about Southern University and their alumni and fans.
