Football is an annual sellout, and that won't change.

You could raise contributions by $50 per seat and it would still be a sellout

Numerous home games are rent a wins and concession revenue suffers. So it's not about that.

Administration is perfectly fine with scheduling games knowing fans will leave early. Great.

I guess I just don't get it.

I really don't get it.

We have certainly lost some tough ones, but I will never in my life forget this amazing run/rollercoaster.

And I vote that it continues

Keep losing and it won't sellout. Even football has its drop off point.

Big donors threatening to pull their funding if things don't change.

Are you a big donor? Because that's pretty much BS

It's really not. People who put up big money expect a certain result. 7-5 isn't it when you do so much to help get great players, facilities, etc. why keep paying for that when it doesn't pay off?

I've heard of one big donor, one whose company I work for, say they're not giving a penny until he's gone.

Yeah but how big of a donor are they?

I've said the same thing and that means they're out a few tickets, some hot dogs, and Sprite.

From reading your post history, I'm pretty sure you are not anywhere near the C suite.

I'm not rich by any means, for the record. Just stating facts.

I'd rather not say. It did a little under a billion dollars in work last year. That's all I will say.

So what are the donors gonna do when Jimbo gets a pay raise and we are crossing our fingers that some mid major coach pans out.

That's what I'm afraid of. It better be a home run hire.. Especially if you're running off Milesin the fashion that this thing is heading.
