I don't have to guess. Here are the games and here are the ratings: https://www.sportsmediawatch.com/college-football-tv-ratings/
Week 7. UNT vs Temple, 37k viewers. The big names are getting 3/4/7 Million viewers. Our 37k viewers are are a drop in the ocean. Week 12 we did 618k vs SMU on ESPN2. We'd have to triple those numbers to make people notice us.
You may get tired of them, but the general public does not. There's a reason the same few teams are featured on national TV every week, and if people were tired of them they wouldn't be.
There's no way we would have any kind of network interest with decent money if we broke away from the power schools.
Explain, then, why all these other games are being televised? According to you, there is no value to it. The networks/cable….would not show them if there was not a value to it. I would venture that in any week during the season, here in the DFW area, I could watch 20-30 games on TV. Please explain how/why that is possible if there is no value to the networks??

Do you guys listen to yourselves at all? If we had so much TV value why aren't we getting it now? But somehow if we left the system with the most valuable teams we would get more money? It doesn't have any kind of sense.
What is your guess on how many games are actually shown on TV from Weds - Sat during the season? I watch games from the Ivy League, MWC, Sunbelt, AAC, C-USA, as well as from the big boys. There is a reason that these games are shown. People watch them. Initially, maybe there is a pause…but I will get tired of watching the same 30 teams…I want to see games across all spectrum.

If the G5 left, it might take time to get the TV revenue. I do think people will get tired of watching the same 30 teams on TV like it was in the 70’s and 80’s with only 2-3 channels showing games.
the G5 would get a lot of demand quickly and people are used to being able to watch whatever game they want. Which may actually give the G5 leverage on a TV contract.

Had a very good career at Yates but Michigan wasn't around when only UTEP, UNT and Nichols State came calling.
He was not the same player his freshman year.
I think Rubin is the standard for a developing player. His Frosh year, he was a source to eat minutes for the starters. Good on defense. He was not part of the offense. Soph year became part of the rotation, even handled the ball some. Jr year became starter, handled the ball a good bit, rebounded…..Sr year, he became the man. Added scoring to his game. Complete development of a player that got him a shot at Michigan.
we need a Rubin in every recruiting class

We got Tylor Perry from a junior college. That is a lower level. Did his college basketball career even continue when he left here?
Well, he was the leading scorer for Kansas St

Yeah, sadly, I fear that the answer is pretty simple: we have the worst NIL in the conference. Until that changes, we'll be sending Hodge into a gunfight with a knife. The further we get into the NIL era, the harder it's going to be to keep up the momentum from past success. At this point we're basically just hoping and praying that Hodge is a WAY better coach/recruiter/evaluater than his AAC counterparts. Even if he is really good at those things, we can't just expect him to pull off miracles every single season.
The problem with this, if Hodge is that good at recruiting over and over, in 2-2 years, he will be swooned away by $$$$ at a larger school.

Can I put my season tickets into the portal? Maybe SMU will offer more for me to come watch them play.
if I hadn’t already paid, I may not have bought. I enjoy rooting for players as well as my team.

Defense was flying all
over the place. No missed tackles. Not sure how that really equates. Offense showed signs.
frosh QB threw 2 pick 6’s in the first half, and came back with 2 good TD drives in the 2nd half. Looked pretty good. Throws a good ball. The picks were on out patterns, and were both good plays by the secondary. Receivers won most of the jump balls which is good/bad depending on which side of the ball you are on….but they were covered well
I liked the format Really only 2 Qb’s played I didn’t see any injuries
I give it a solid B

You know, despite the injuries, we still had a pretty solid season. And if everybody came back, would be in line for a really strong 2024-25 season. I have not heard any of them already with an NIL deal.
is Hodge chasing them away? I have only met him twice. He seems like a nice guy and players coach.
there has to be a reason to this….and without NIL deals in place, what is the pull?

I wear green glasses, drink green kool-aid, and bleed green….dont get me wrong. I want a 20+ win season as much as anybody. But they keep getting earlier in hitting us up for tickets. I have my tickets, so I can now speculate, prognosticate, bitch/moan, and make insignificant wagers with fellow fans as to what we think we will have next season.
I encourage everybody to buy your season tickets and join me.

The Final Four isn't final yet, we haven't begun to sign people for next year outside of the high schoolers and our roster is far from being set and we get this? Let's let it play out and see what happens. What if Ruben, Aaron and Edwards have a change of heart after casting their line and return? Too many what ifs at this point.
Dude, they have already hit me up for my season tickets for next year.
it is “Game On”

Pretty sure he's ineligible for a Roth if the IRS is seeing him bring in $250k in a year. And maybe I need a new money guy, but isn't the regular IRA max this year still $6500?
I get the sentiment of what you're saying... but you aren't hiding $250k pretax into a Roth IRA in a single year.
Hopefully he's well diversified in Bonds, Treasuries, Equities, his IRA, etc etc. 😅 Basically I hope he didn't go out and buy a Hellcat with that money (if he got it).
Good point. The new rule for a single is Max $161K to put into a Roth. Max is $8K now

Ultimately, I honestly don't care. It was just fitting to watch karma take care of all that in 1 night. But he will definitely find a seat next to Drez on the "I shouldn't have left" couch. My only question is, will he be as open about it as Drez was? I hope. Good recruiting pitch for us.
You say the money is not life changing. At his age, if he puts $100K in a Roth fund, he is able to retire a multi-millionaire at 50. That is life changing.

Mods, feel free to move this, but it is football(parking) related
the MGSF has decided to take away the assigned parking privilege we have been paying for all these years in the Black Lot. They are saying that too many people(~12 per game)are not parking in the right spots, the parking lot monitors are not doing their job. So to alleviate that problem, they are taking away assigned parking from us all. This is a making of their own actions. They take away paper parking passes and switch to digital. No way to see on the windshield. This is an issue they created.
I bought into a program that promised assigned parking and am still paying for that. They reduce a benefit, but not the price. Assigned parking is a huge value to me. It is nice to know where you are going to park every time.
this was not thought out well.
if this is a problem for you, please call the MGSF office and let them know

I don’t believe this chart. This does not make sense.
