Has Maggard hit his ceiling as AD

[ZoomZoom]

Just with the families who used to tailgate with us, I know a lot of people in the same boat.

You aren’t going to grow the fan base by forcing all these RCAF fees (annual fund donation, personal seat donations, parking passes for each sport, etc.). There has to be a path for growing the fan base without jamming the RCAF down their throat.

How ridiculous is it that if you donate $12,500 to RCAF, they won’t let you park at football games? You have to donate an additional $60 per parking pass.

How many potential fans were on the fence regarding buying season tickets, but all the extras fees made them decide not to?

We are charging P5 fees, while putting out an inferior G5 product. This is a recipe for disaster. When increased donations aren’t bettering the product, people stop donating.

When I look at my RCAF ranking, I know we are in A LOT OF TROUBLE. There is absolutely no reason I should have such a high ranking with the amount I donate.

Up until recently, we could see the total number of RCAF members when they showed your ranking. Appreciate your giving, but what was really disturbing was the total members were right under 2k.

Have we gotten all we can get out of Dr. Maggard? Between a bad scheduling philosophy for both MBB and Football along with all the drama, miscommunications, silent periods, staffing challanges, game day experiences, parking, tailgating, RCAF issues, not reaching out to the small time donors, not leveraging what we have already in place, etc, etc.

I am not a Maggard hater. Dissapointed, sure. Mainly in not capitalizing on a football championship season. Good help and ideas are hard to find...but it just seems like we're stuck in the mud...

Are we looking at the Peter Principle sort of thing. Has Maggard reached his ceiling here?

Or was he sent here for a particular mission by his (true) bosses, Sankey and Emmert, and with much patience he is executing his orders perfectly as planned. And everyone here, despite warnings, fell for it hook, line and sinker

Right...and the moon landings never happened...

Don’t complain! After all if you are willing to buy that $60 parking pass, that extra $9,500 gets you 25-35 feet closer to the stadium!

I think if you purchase season tickets, a parking pass should be included. Provide one parking pass for every 2 season tickets purchased. If they want to add another $5-$10 to the cost of each ticket, just do that. But don’t add another step in the process by having to purchase the pass separately.

[CajunNation]

I don’t give money for parking passes. I give money to avoid a repeat of the late 90’s.

Completely agree. Especially after the fiasco with MBB and the “75%” debacle.

Over the last year or so I have lost all confidence in him. I once thought he was the guy we couldn't lose, not anymore.
