Should Tech host Grambling in 2018?

[Amos Moses]

Yes.

[DFWDawg]

Yes, season opener. Love a full house and atmosphere. Was at Grambling game in Shreveport. Not our best game but great crowd.

[Dixonfor6]

Yes. Sell the Joe out and get a win. As long as we aren't cutting them too much of a deal...

[DogsWin]

It's all about the money. And of course honest collection accounting. Not the ridiculousness that occurred the last time we played them in Shreveport.

[Mogu1993]

I'd rather play Grambling than Southern

[techman05]

If they will agree to playing in Ruston for cheaper than any other fcs, I vote yes. We absolutely should not let them dictate anything. They need us.

[WWDog]

Yes in Ruston with an appropriate payday for the Gmen. We don't want anything like the deal last time.

[Dawg06]

Yes. In Ruston. But don't overpay for them.

[PawDawg]

I'd rather play Grambling than Southern

Why? If it's money I agree. Grambling will not be a big draw for us or them.

Yes. In Ruston. But don't overpay for them.

Our AD will find a reason to overpay them.

[Bearpaw]

Yes in Ruston with an appropriate payday for the Gmen. We don't want anything like the deal last time.

Besides the Shreveport mess, what else was bad in the deal last time? Should we pay them the same we're paying SCSt (325K)? Or less because they don't really have much travel (5-10miles)?

For me personally, it was 100% the Shreveport "mess" --- I wouldn't mind hosting the G-men in Ruston ONLY

[buck_dawg_gold]

Why not play them in Ruston? If you voted no why?

[johnnylightnin]

Yes, if its a home game or if we have 6 home games and someone pays us $500,000 to play it in S'port or Dallas

Yes. But it'd have to be the normal going rate for an FCS home game.

Yes. But only in JAS. No more Shreveport for this game, and no playing at Grambling.

All of this.

[johnnylightnin]

Our AD will find a reason to overpay them.

Schools like Tech and McNeese should pay big money to play Grambling!

[Gooddawg]

It's going to cost more to bring in Grambling and Southern because they are going to sell more tickets than any opponent we have ever brought into Ruston, think about that. I have no problem paying more to Grambling and Southern for that reason. FBS schools are getting paid more now than 5-10 years ago just like we are getting paid more for money games.
