I have learned the opponent but am not at Liberty to share that yet. Also we have not been out of the country since 2017.
was this a hint?

……With all the discussion, I think the positives are very good……RECRUITING, BOTH MAYBE GETTING A KID NOW AND FOR THE FUTURE…..cool trip and an ongoing recruiting tool…..what I would be doing is sending a baseball recruiter along to do the island and the Dom Rep and maybe a soft baller rep ….my daughter and husband lived there for about 5 years and started the Trump golf course…..he is in charge of the P R Open and still goes to meet with the gov and the rest of the staff…..think we had a player from there some years back and basketball was pretty big!

Marlin has spent the last 3 years complaining that football is squeezing his budget and he goes ahead and spends road game revenue on going on a preseason road trip.

Which was the entire point. But people will always excuse and defend.
I keep seeing “reasons” that the PR trip is needed is because it’s a recruiting tool. You know what’s a better recruiting tool? Good home schedules so players play in front of big home crowds…

Built in excuse for them having team a bad start .. Marlin had to play a tough schedule to pay for the PR trip.
Years past fans flipped the bill now Marlin gets out fundraised by Dimond sports
