    The news of the S. Alabama game being picked up by ESPN has been out for almost a week on local TV, News Paper and the Athletic website. If people are going, there has been plenty of time to make plans. Optics is not a concern, or so I've been told when we play football on weeknights because of the opportunity to play in front of a national audience. You don't change game times for baseball on the day of the game unless it's weather related. Too many people do not get off of work until after 5pm.

    LOL. I agree with you. Some people think things are just so easy. Just talk to BYU. They should be fine with it. WOW.

    I heard they actually planned on getting the word out early with some good old fashion smoke signals, but we've had too much wind this week. They went to plan B, which has stationing an employee at each respective venue (Cajun Dome and Tigue Moore) and scream as loud as they could the date and times (did it at noon because most people are on lunch break...better coverage) What more do you people want? No point in trying with some of you, I swear.

    Because we have national TV exposure vs a single baseball game. Fans can show up a little late for the baseball game and catch the basketball game. We are talking 1 game in 33 (?) home games vs a single meaningful basketball game.

    why should I have to miss something I pay for to make sure you don't have to miss any of either game? kind of an entitled stance don't you think? I mean we are talking about 20- 30 minutes... so why don't you miss it? instead of EVERYONE else?

    Same exposure we get playing football on weeknights. See the football scheduled released today for further validation.

    That what I’m doing Boomer. Depart baseball at 7:45. Same thing we did Wednesday.

    Naw, ain’t happening. We got there Wednesday ASAP after baseball. Still scanning tickets 2 minutes into second half.
