While at the SoCon Rouser, can your AD give Georgia Southern's AD a class in "Negotiating I-A Payouts 101"? We are playing Georgia in 2008 for LESS than what SE Louisiana is getting from Texas Tech this year.

We can DEFINITELY use the $$$!! :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
Let's see....about half will go towards paying medical bills and to replace equipment destroyed after the game....that leaves $175,000 for fun! I hope we don't spend it all in one place!


But in all seriousness, I know that Nicholls State can DEFINITELY use the funds for equipment and everyday stuff. I hope they're getting this program on the right track and looking to make considerable investments in all the athletics teams at the school. Heck, someday, before I die, I may even see a NICE playing surface in John L. Guidry Stadium! :eek: :eek: :hurray:

Oh yeah, just curious, but what is your source for this data?

[El_Cid_99]

Sorry, I can't remember where I found it. But try the newspaper's site.

There's actually something to be said for that. It's been a while since GSU has played a I-A other than UGA (1999 Oregon State) while El Cid has played: ATM, Pitt, FSU, Ole Miss, Auburn, Duke, Maryland, LSU, Wyoming, GT, Clemson and Vandy. They actually DO have a lot of experience negotiating I-A games. It also helps that they're playing one of the top public endowment schools in the country (ATM system is #3 public). :nod:

This might be off topic; but, What is the most a 1-A school has paid to play a 1-AA school?

BTW, great article about it here....

He knew that.:eyebrow:

He's attended the Ronbo School Of Payout Braggadocio.

I didn't know, and I don't agree very often with Ronbo.

Well I could go the way of the few Griz posters that haven't been driven off this board. I could be meek and apologetic about our program. I could tell everyone how many question marks and weaknesses we have. I could tell you how the Griz are rated way too high. I could praise the other teams in the BSC and tell you how scared and worried I am about them. I guess the weak meek Griz fans rule here. By the way Cap'n you're one of the most offensively mean posters out there. You have a compulsive hatred for YSU and hound them constantly.

No wonder the Griz posters have gone from a couple dozen to about 5-6 on this board. If you post anything positive you're bragging and get jumped on. You got to post negative **** about the Griz. I've noticed alot of GSU fans have left too, they got tired of the crap too.

Maybe they all got tired of you. I know I sure usually skip your posts, just happened to read this one for some silly reason.

:eyebrow: Better than the opposite...

I tell everyone how few question marks and weaknesses we have. I tell you how the Griz are rated way too low. I insult the other teams in the BSC and tell you I am not scared and worried about them.

LMAO @ Youngstown!!!

Ron, look over your last one thousand posts and count how many of them deal with money, somehow. All's I was sayin'........

BTW, I don't tangle with GSU folks and haven't seen any decline in their numbers, certainly not due to me.

Quitcher whinin'...

Somehow this thread got Phoooked up badly. Was it not about 1-AA payday games versus our non-playoff brothers? :smiley_wi
