SGBull

Done

I normally like to give college coaches 3 years before I turn on them, but if GH doesn’t improve significantly this year then I will be saying it is time to move on.

AD for sure, our last few AD's either improved the department or maintained success. Ever since Alnutt took over it feels like things are going in the other direction.

Maybe this was just a genius move by GHIII to set the bar so low that anything he does next year will be a massive upgrade and will be seen as improvement. If he gets to 8 wins he can put "Improved win total by 100% in second year" on his resume.

At some point it feels like the pendulum is going to swing the other way. Eventually donors are going to stop shelling out tons of money once they have paid enough for recruits that busted

I mean all rivalries had a trophy made up at some point. This rivalry feels a lot more natural to me. Teams are viewed as the "east coast" outsiders of the conference, they are much closer than UConn and UCF, Massachusetts vs New York, and both are without a true in conference rival.

Personally, I hope they do make this a new rivalry/trophy game. While we do seem to have natural rivalries with Akron, Kent, and Ohio in basketball, I think it makes sense for multiple reasons to encourage a rivalry with UMass.

I feel like you misinterpreted what I was trying to say. I went to almost every (if not every) UB game when I lived in Buffalo. I still would be going if I lived there now. What my point was, that as an athletics department, they should always be looking to improve the sports programs. Part of that is improving gameday experience. Within gameday experience, is having a football stadium that makes it more enjoyable to watch a game. Priority #1 for me in particular would be starting to allocate a budget to eventually remove the track. There are many other things they could focus on (new scoreboard, better concessions, locker rooms, other facilities, etc. We are all on this board (minus a couple of trolls) because we care about the UB Bulls. Part of caring about that is almost always wanting them to win. It is not realistic to think that gameday experience has no impact to a winning program. Obviously if I could choose between consant MAC Champion teams with a track versus bad teams with no track, I would choose the former.

Completely agree with everything you said. Priority number 1 for me has always been the track. UB stadium as a whole has the worst lines of sight out of any stadium I have been to from high school, D3, D1 and NFL.

Right brand, wrong flavor. Peanut butter pandemonium all the way!

UB favored by 2 now on draft kings. Hopefully they know more than me

CJ and Perkins are my clear 2.

Let's call it a "can't lose" then

If Alnutt is here next year I will be extremely disappointed.
