  1. So 3 away OOC games will be expected occasionally going forward?
  2. Anybody know where the tickets UB is selling for this game (for poor people/non big $ donors) are located? Typically visitors sit in NKU or NLU but curious if there's non-VIP seats sold behind the bench too. Also if somebody knows the price for the ticket only? Assuming it's $30 ($85 tailgate/ticket - $55 tailgate only), but the AA page does not list it.
  3. Obviously the tape is his highlights but from looking at that I'm surprised he isn't getting power school looks at the very least.
  4. Looking at the site it looks like there's a bunch that is not accurate or updated. https://ubbulls.com/sports/2019/6/17/TeamUB.aspx UB is the ONLY school in the state of New York with a FBS (Division 1) football program UB competes in the MAC Conference and the football program led the conference in 2013 with an average attendance of 22,750! SUNY Syracuse and Army have FBS programs. MAC Conference (drink) UB is the largest public University in the Northeast with over 28,000 students UB is one of 22 state Universities nationally in the prestigious AAU Academic Consortium Rutgers, UConn, Temple and Penn State are larger There's 34 public (state) universities in the AAU plus 2 public Canadian universities The strategic plan has images of the cut sports. Yikes.
  5. There's a direct flight from Buffalo to Nashville now too. If it was a weekend, I might have considered it We just need a game vs Louisville and a game vs IU and you could do a full 2 hour drive in all 4 directions from Evansville (counting the SIU game).
  6. Probably 50-50 is my guess. After seeing it for 4 years it became engrained as at
  7. For me it’s eye roll worthy when a recruit says “Buffalo University” but we are not unique in that aspect. Jamal Adams committed to the “University of LSU” Unfortunately for a lot of these kids the name on the jersey/helmet means more than the (name on the) diploma.
  8. Oh shit I forgot. Sorry, probably could have done without a lot of what I posted.
  9. SUNY designation. We're the State University of New York at Buffalo. The University is part of the New York system, located in (at) Buffalo. Just like how State University of New York, University of Syracuse doesn't make much they just shorten it to SUNY Syracuse University. Other states that have similar structures usually just drop the "at" like University of Illinois Springfield and University of Wisconsin Madison. If we did that it would look something like this: Now that I've opened that can of worms....we can all agree that our system is better than Indiana's which has two public university systems, Indiana University and Purdue University. Sometimes the public universities offer degree programs from both systems, so you get fun names like Indiana University–Purdue University Indianapolis. Then there's Indiana University – Purdue University Fort Wayne, which has now split into Purdue University Fort Wayne and Indiana University Fort Wayne. But they share the same campus. And we thought New York was bad.
  10. https://www.bizjournals.com/buffalo/news/2019/07/25/say-hello-to125-powerful-women-in-western-new-york.html Paywalled, but you should still be able to see the slideshow. #70 is Felisha Legette-Jack
  11. Are we a northeast school though? Sure NYS is "northeast" but Buffalo is closer geographically and culturally to Pittsburgh, Cleveland, even Columbus than Boston, Philly, and NYC.
  12. MAC West winning the tournament? ha!
  13. Any word if we're going to play our SUNY rivals Syracuse this fall?
  14. We aren't filling their schedule out for quite a few years. We don't have room.
  15. It would be great if we didn't have a track in our stadium around now. At least we have an indoor practice facility though.
  16. I suspect there's some funky numbers in northwest Ohio. I find it odd that Toledo outdraws CMU and BG is around CMU's attendance. Especially given BG's fall over the past few years. That being said, it's terrible that UB WBB does not draw a larger crowd. The crowd (butts in seats) has grown exponentially over the past 5 or so years. But we are spoiled with Coach Jack, and quite frankly on borrowed time. She was reportedly offered the Penn State job, and there's no doubt in my mind that if she wanted to she could get paid more. I had zero interest in women's basketball (or men's basketball to be honest) before UB, and I now find myself driving to Storrs and Albany to watch NCAA tournament games. Go watch this team, you will not be disappointed.
  17. He's from long island so there's about a coin flip's chance that his parent(s) went to UB.
  18. Stony Brook, Siena, Niagara, Bryant are the other offers
  19. I've been to half of them. Most for a game. I don't get the full tour of facilities like others may, but from my limited view as a fan of the places I've been: Akron, Toledo, (gap), Miami, Western, (gap), Kent, UB.
  20. That's a very generous 6 given our softball and football situation.
  21. NCAA is handing out hardship waivers like Akron hands out acceptance letters.
