Louisiana's SuccessfUL 3-0 Puerto Rico Tour

[JMV JustMyView]

Home and Home series have no payday aspect. Now I guess we could pay someone a fee similar to a non D1 to come while we go for free. Maybe something like that could be tried but Dr. Maggard has not shown interest in doing something like that to date. I am now 100 PERCENT positive a road game is paying for the Puerto Rico trip. I have learned the opponent but am not at Liberty to share that yet. Also we have not been out of the country since 2017.

You can't have information and not release it on RP. You will have some jealous folks who will try and bash you over and over. LOL.

Stoppppp.

Whether it’s a home and home that we buy (which absolutely happens), the point is, we shouldn’t be spending money on vacation destinations when we can’t get decent home schedules.

A money game isn’t paying for the trip. If you want to say the money game is reimbursing people for the trip, than that would be more accurate, but still not totally accurate. And btw, isn’t the argument for playing money games (where we typically get our teeth kicked in) to supplement budget concerns? If that’s true, how is adding an expense based on that payout making sense?

We must have all the rest of our financial ducks in a row for basketball for the next couple years…

……With all the discussion, I think the positives are very good……RECRUITING, BOTH MAYBE GETTING A KID NOW AND FOR THE FUTURE…..cool trip and an ongoing recruiting tool…..what I would be doing is sending a baseball recruiter along to do the island and the Dom Rep and maybe a soft baller rep ….my daughter and husband lived there for about 5 years and started the Trump golf course…..he is in charge of the P R Open and still goes to meet with the gov and the rest of the staff…..think we had a player from there some years back and basketball was pretty big!

Marlin has spent the last 3 years complaining that football is squeezing his budget and he goes ahead and spends road game revenue on going on a preseason road trip.

No matter how it gets spun, this is the cold hard truth.
