Martin Hall vs. the Students.

. . . done in 82 . . . lived at home . . . accounting degree in three years . . . no debt . . . attended most football, basketball and baseball games . . . just glorious

...all that and forgot to mention what cum laude?

...all that and forgot to mention what cum laude?

. . . oh yes, the little gold sticker on the bottom left of the diploma . . .

Thank you for paying off your own commitment.

Last semester, 12 hours, $191.50, ‘79. Walked out debt free. No vacations, worked full time pretty much year round. Apartment life.

USL sports was our entertainment, hence pretty much a life long fan. That’s a big disconnect today with today’s students, alternative distractions.

Similar story but slightly different circumstances in 68. At the time I knew young scuba divers who worked for offshore platform and drilling companies. They drove new sporty cars, nice apartments, and paid for their education for three months in the Gulf.

The shine has worn off, we have said this a million times...if we want fans to attend games we have to provide more than just football. Like it or not its the way it is. The older fans can sit here on this board and crap on the students and younger fans about it and yell at them as our attendance to continues to drop or yall can help contribute and come up with better ideas.

Thanks for the lecture.

Thanks for the lecture.

You can’t convert a woman into liking you by disparaging her, you’ve got to improve yourself and your technique. The older fans aren’t the ones that will be disappointed when they pass on. Martin Hall probably doesn’t care much one way or the other. It’s really up to the youngsters. I’m beginning to think athletic entertainment might be a thing that has had its time. You have to be crazy rich to give these kids $120K over 4 years in addition to NIL, scholarships, cost of living upscale lifestyle.
