I have been EXTREMELY productive today.

Friday was the deadline to be considered for Transfer Student Scholarships. I have been working the last week on my Excel spreadsheet gathering information on those who applied and was able to make the awards TODAY. So when someone calls in on Wednesday and asks for an extension to the scholarship deadline, I can tell them "Sorry, but those have already been awarded."
Wow, you have a lot of power!! :smt027
"Regarding BGSU, I would think their biggest strength is that they never give up, They never slow down and they battle hard even after the other team scores. We have to be on our game and never, ever take the foot off the gas for a second."

"BG was relentless. It's like they know that a good first pass on the breakout from a defenseman will almost always result in an odd-man rush against them - but they go in anyway and dare you to make that pass. All three of their goals were just grit and effort. That's a team any fan can be proud to support...they give all they've got."

The jerseys are licensed (that means they have been approved by BGSU, and BGSU's licensing consortium). BGSU uses the "Licensing Resource Group, Inc." for licensing.

To get the brown replica jerseys made, we (Fan Fuel Enterprises, LLC - our company) simply worked with Sportex who, in turn, produced a production run sample that was approved by BGSU and subsequently licensed. Per below, BGSU gets 8% royalties for the wholesale price of each jersey sold.

Yes, but I doubt the demand would be there to justify doing so. We have to order minimums (and different sizes). Thus far the demand for brown football jerseys has been lukewarm at best.

Not yet. I'll pester the vendor to see when he expects his shipment in.

If everything goes to plan we'll be picking up director's chairs, tailgating chairs and a couple of tailgating gazebo's the week of July 24th.
