With all do respect that’s BS. Go sit with an AD and discuss the difficulties of making a schedule at this level. Have you ever? I have? Lots off variables have to align and fall into place. One of the biggest being getting both parties to agree. Thats why you end up with Ohio and New Mexico st on your schedule when you’d rather play a Tech , Tulane, Memphis, Tulsa, and other more regional match ups.
PS don’t come to me with your apples and oranges BS. Not in to that.
That’s what you get from that guy. He is the one that is talking about scheduling in a way to get crowds. You offer real life discussions with ADs and suggestions on scheduling that could move the needle. His answer apples and oranges. WTF does that mean. He makes absolutely no sense and proves he knows nothing about college athletics every day. He’s just here for the pod shots.
really . . . you still representing your USL diploma poorly . . . give it a rest . . .
You are right because that guys comments shows he actually knows a little bit about how a college program works. Your comments are just things like apples and oranges, or quit being a Scrooge, or please tell me your degree from Louisiana, or go play with your self, or so you truly can’t read, or please don’t participate in self flattery. You offer absolutely nothing to the conversation going on about scheduling to butts in the seats. Go read your own comments you sound like a little name calling teen age girl Bob.
You said this:"I said it benefits in intangible ways . . . I never said that every game would move the needle in each intangible . . . take each intangible I identified and ask the question would it be better one Iota for our attendance number to be greater rather than lessor . . . and now you have the reason that virtually every school spends more money and jumps through more hoops to have the larger attendance figure rather then the smaller one . . . KK I know you understand that" . . .
I definitely agree. I mean all very obvious statements that are pretty common sense. Trust me if every AD had his choice he would have every non conference road game within a short driving distance both home and away to maximize attendance. Unfortunately there are to many egos in the game to do that. Any AD that isn't doing that should be fired.
My response that you called fruits were just examples of real life obstacles that our AD's go through in scheduling that keep them from getting good regional opponents that would generate more interest and ticket sales than some we have brought in in the past like NMST and OU. Clearly you can see how a Tech, Tulane, Memphis would generate more local interest than Ohio? But those egos get in the way. You get that right.
