Harleys and NASCAR and Gold Medalists and Bobble Heads
and lifesized posters and a new scoreboards
and new ads on the scoreboard and a new logo and a new Green THerd
Avenue. Just a few of the minor
renovations we've seen. How bout that Pathway to Prominence huh?
$100 Million Dollars. Apparently someone is doing well in the stock
market and needed to deduct thedividends.
Boy it sure seems that with all this money coming
in and a Heisman Candidate at QB that we could get some better competition
than Buffalo. Who let these guys in Division I ball anyway. I'd
put them up against the Ironton Tigers. Coach Lutz, Do you guys
have a path way to prominence in Ironton? Oh, wait that's recruiting
for you guys.
Bottom line, all the marketing escapes that MU can
pull off will not fill the stands against Buffalo, Kent,
Akron, and the like. The Herd Faithful will be there no doubt. Your
fan base is shrinking. I predict you will see it with an opening
against Hofstra! WOW What an announcement.
Can we just play Buffalo twice. Or maybe we can get
Howard - at least their band is fun to watch. What happened to "We'll
play anybody anywhere?" I guess that applies to everybody except
TCU.
With LSU and Tennesee on the schedule next year put
this between your horns: LSU and Tennesee don't need Marshall. Marshall
needs the SEC. Forget this CUSA crap and look to the real deal,
it's right in your back yard and a few victories over Vandy wouldn't
hurt the cause. As far as the MAC is concerned, beat Miami and bury
OU with Ball State to gain the Top 25 fire we once had.
