What is the cost breakdown of tickets?
Would it be possible to put a dollar or 2 from each ticket into an NIL fund?
Or maybe even a "would you like to round up" function when tickets are purchased and give option to add 5 dollars (or more) to total sale and put that in the NIL fund

Always infuriates me when someone calling the plays is on the sidelines and not in the box with a better aerial view of the field. Dez's play calling is terrible, every series it seems the same philosophy takes place whether it's working or not.

I can't disagree with CMD's philosophy of investing in the talent we have versus chasing new talent in the portal. Other than what may be funded out of my ticket costs I'm not giving one dime to the NIL cause. It's a terrible system that is so flawed and needs to be overhauled yesterday. Yes we have to navigate it as is but I do believe there is merit in trying to build a place that athletes want to be at versus coming to for a quick paycheck. Perhaps I am just naïve though.

The administration has to make it clear to the public, we are committed to vertical mobility in college football. We've missed out on conference realignment with Scott Farmer and recently with Maggard.

I think what some people are trying to nicely say in this thread is: the admin can "make it clear to the public" all they want, the public is no longer listening.

I wonder just who the Administration is now. T-Joe is gone. We have an interim President. Can our AD make an independent decision now or do we have to wait for a new President to be installed, whenever that will occur.

No one will even come clean as to how we got into a current financial mess, and why it went on so long.

You want clear guidance on leadership?

Just asking if Maggard can fire and hire without a permanent President named.

The university is being faced with having to perform layoffs. I doubt an interim president is going to want the optics of academic layoffs while buying out CMD and spending market rate for a replacement. Even if private money is floated to do so.

Probably not. Give him another year, force an OC hire. Anything less than a bowl win and 7-5 is terms for dismissal.

Buyout will be cheaper and there won’t be any excuses.

The layoffs should be easy. Administrative layoffs and the DEI Liberal arts departments.

No more Gender Studies, no more LGBT studies, in fact if a program doesn’t produce a professional degree then the university shouldn’t offer it.

This is reasonable except the bowl win part. I’d rather go 10-3, play a P4 tight and lose than 7-5, NO bowl against another G5 and win.
