    I know for a fact the Scott Farmer turned down games when ESPN wanted to flex the Cajuns in. Maybe things have changed, but I just don't believe ESPN can just force a school to railroad their fanbase, especially for homecoming, with no input from the administrators.

    I know they changed the game time.

    That’s not what you responded to.

    Oh, so you really think our administration bowed down to ESPN two years in a row for homecoming?

    I’d like to think maggard is in touch enough with the fan base that if he had a choice he would have passed, given our schedule this year and Saturday games. Going to be a hard sell on tailgate spots next year

    I remember when attendance was the worst going and watching the band, leaving and going to get drinks, coming back and getting the same parking spot and then walking into a mostly empty stadium

    New wrinkle in the plans I just noticed. Each time the Astros go to the World Series, I go to Houston for Game 4 which is always a Saturday. This year, Game 4 will be homecoming night. Possible World Series watch party in the tailgate spot!

    I heard Coach Napier on the radio this morning say that he hopes a big crowd shows up for homecoming at 4pm against Texas State for our next home game. I could have sworn that's what he said. Did they change the game back to 4pm or did he just forget about the change.
