Surprising. Those WNIT games used to be buyouts. If they still are, guess BG came up with more $ than Florida.

Unless it's the very rare situation when a MAC schools gets a major bowl game, the lower bowls are losers for MAC schools. They are required to sell a certain number of tickets, which rarely occurs, and then they have to eat the cost of the remainder.

The Block's also own a number of TV stations. They're doing the same thing at the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, the dominant paper in steel town.

What errors on roster construction? This seems like a very talented group I think this does look like a talented group and the incoming recruiting class looks to be a big step in the right direction. My complaints have long been that every year we seem to have had 3 posts who could do nothing beyon...

5 year contract @$525K. Is that a normal MAC contract?

Not just mid-majors, but plenty of DII/DIII type schools.

I think a lot of people are taking the AD's comments in entirely the wrong way. The thought was we need to find additional ways to raise money from sources OUTSIDE, such as corporate sponsorships, private donations, and other NEW sources of revenue. I think he was trying to let us know where his ef...

Liked the interaction theTV crew picked up on the sidelines I'm not a fan of what we've been getting from the American Sports Network. In particular, yesterday's crew seemed really ill-informed. They kept forgetting what down it was. They criticized the kick after the Zimmerman (?) touchdown as a p...
