Why do we continue to schedule FCS schools? We should never be playing these teams. The new AD has been in office a week, and this is his best? Or was this Leger? Either way, a bad scheduling mistake. If we can't run the belt, then we need to get paid to be able to buyout Hud, but scheduling these lower division schools is a joke. We do not make $4MM per home game, we make more money playing at SEC & Big X-II than we do for a home game. Stop scheduling FCS

Stop scheduling FCS* but Maggard isn't in office yet. From his presser, he will not start till early March so I'm guessing this was a UL System schedule similar with our past games of NW State, Nicholls, McNeese, and future Hammond. But I wouldn't be surprised if this was signed by Farmer towards the end of his reign and Grambling just hasn't signed the contract till recently. Regardless, we can and have to do better.

So you like the 5-7(home/away) schedule we have this year? No FCS and we're looking at 4-8. Just about every school in the country schedules 1 per year. Get used to it. It's better that it's a state school rather than a school like North Carolina A&T. Remember that one?

We don't $4 mil for "money games" either.
