You talking about removing the seating to add high dollar suites?


I am not for alienating more fans and making it more difficult to attend a game for middle class folks.

Lowering the capacity is not a good deal to me. I have season tix, the survey sent to me was ridiculous in costs.

Why does our NIL suck because of Hunter? I’m disconnected from all the NIL stuff.

Every other SEC program let their big money boosters run wild wild NIL payments.

The Mississippi schools set up collectives for small payments to equal large payments (Ole Miss).

Hunter followed Sabans lead of resisting NIL, politicing trying to get it stopped. Then payed for a carbon copy of Maryland's NIL collective to be but in place.

At an opportunity to even the playing field with the likes of bama via NIL, Hunter sat on his hands then threw them up in protest while programs like Ole Miss and SCAR seized the opportunity and are sniping contributors off the roster through the portal as a result in football.

Basketball is a little different in Muss has largely brought in players from smaller conferences through the portal, but he has lost players in recruiting from a shortage of available funds.

Hunter hasn't done anything to narrow the gap he allowed to exist, it is only widening.

Thanks for the explanation. Your last point about Musselman is likely why there are rumors of him wanting to leave. He will have better opportunities for talent elsewhere.

Actually certain ones are and they have been posting on here for years. Most don't even donate enough to make a difference. They think we should should just dominate all sports and the live in the Rick and Morty realm.

Are you a methodist preacher like Rev but with better connections?

I do have business dealings with someone that knows everything regarding SMU.

Let’s say, he makes the clock tick there

I'm not sure how Muss turns away USC really. He loves the West Coast. And could live a normal life and go about his day with zero people noticing.

Hunter did this because he knows how bleak our NIL situation is. As I've mentioned before, we are a small state with a couple of really big fish donors, but very little in the "middle class" of donors, especially compared to SEC schools. You need that middle class meat to compete in football.

I think you’d be surprised how many “middle class” donors we would have if we were somewhat competitive in football. But nobody wants to donate to the shite show on the hill right now

We need a GM who is analytics based. The days of having an AD should be gone for a school of our size. Think money ball.

Have you purchased gas or groceries lately? How bout season tickets and travel expenses?

The "middle class" are neck deep in debt and I doubt Titboss and the football program move their needle much.

We need a change at the top and small businesses to step up if we're going to compete with the Mississippi schools.

Offering free Wrights BBQ isn't cutting it.

Weren’t we told all the money we saved by not buying out Pittman would be going to NIL.
