Big XII, as it is presently formed, is a very long term goal. Smallest budget in the AAC as currently formed is in the low 30 millions. I believe that is attainable. Academics will play a part but University of Memphis is presently on the same Academic level as UL as is East Carolina. Even though US News University ratings are highly subjective they are important. Gaining Tier 1 status there could help. The Athletics Master Plan which will begin construction immediately after our last home football game, winning in Football and going to a bowl game annually, getting Basketball up to speed and continuing our success in Softball and Baseball and all spring sports are key. We fans need to continue to grow the RCAF fund. Getting to 20 million+ in our athletic budget is imperative. CUSA and the AAC or even the formation of a New Conference.
.are our immediate goals. Big XII membership should be our long term goal.We control our own destiny.
Yet the commissioner caved to Hoax e-mails. Well, that's probably nit a good example considering that Benson is such a _____ to begin with.
The truth is I don't give a damn if they care or not. Just annoy the hell out of them every time they annoy us with their name bull____.
What are they gonna do? Call is Lafayette?
I don't think Benson or W.W. gave a damn about ULM fan emails just like they won't give a damn about ours. But if you want to bombard Benson with BS I fully support that. He's the one who makes the decision to push Lafayette. But leave the minions following orders at ESPN alone. They're just doing their job and a few emails from you won't convince them defy their bosses.
ESPN announcers just imploded over being called minions and are bombarding T-Joe with hateful emails. T-Joe told me he's confused as to whether he gives a damn or not. but wants to talk to you first. He says you know a lot about who, when and where people give a damn.
Ah yes, just following orders. Sorry, that excuse don't fly, Fritz.
I want to make the minions pay. Irritate the ____ out of them. You may be right that it won't make them defy their bosses but if we keep the heat on them they will know each time that they do it it is not acceptable.
I'm sure they care deeply about what you find acceptable and unacceptable.
They should. We are the customers
Good thing the majority of our fan base is not as spineless as you would like them to be. Hey, you want to sit this fight out, go ahead. The rest of us aren't afraid to do the heavy lifting. If it does nothing more than irritate them it serves its purpose. And knowing it irritates you is just an added bonus.
Heavy lifting??????? lol, writing angry emails to strangers who don't care about your opinion is not heavy lifting.
But please, please keep us all updated on how much progress you're making on the name issue.
