  1. That should be covered in the contract, that if UConn drops the contract is void.
  2. Almost all do. That is how Wisconsin complained that they lost money one year on a $13,000,000.00 payout for the Rose Bowl. Yes they lost money on their share of the Rose Bowl money. However, they probably made money once they included their share of the money from the other bowl games the Big 10 played in that year.
  3. If the MAC is going to be a replacement team in the Motor City Bowl Quick Lanes Bowl, UB would be their sixth pick based upon geography. They would take one of hte Michigans, Toledo or Bowling Green over UB all the time. It is. Also EMU allowed Pitt to drive 91 yards for the gaming winning touchdown in under two minutes. They then had to try the hail Mary with a back up quarterback as their starter was ejected for getting two sportsmanship penalties on the same play (punching two Pitt players).
  4. If you want to make things more affordable make sure you have and use a hotel or airline credit card. I flew in game day morning and and spent Friday at a Courtyard by Marriott for free on my free anniversary night gift from their rewards program. If the game had been at noon, as it had been in the past, I would have flown home the same day and not needed a hotel in the Bahamas at all. The last flight out was at 7:23 PM and if the game ran long or had weather delays it would have been tight to make the flight, since you have to clear both security and Customs and Immigration in the Bahamas rather than when you reach American soil. Also I was able to cover the expense for all of my taxis on the island for free on winnings at Atlantis after the game. If you want to go to a the bowl game next year, start your planning and savings now. If you wake up on the day the games are announced and have to start having to put together and find the money to go it is probably too late. Ditto for March Madness.
  5. Coach Alan Hensell (TE) is the new head coach at Franklin College in Indiana. It is a DIII school.
  6. This could be the shot of the year for the women this year.
  7. This is insulting as I not only know who Willis Reed, but remember where I was when he walked onto the court, listening on radio as hte game was on tape delay in New York because of blackout rules.
  8. Or as the Manhattan fans chanted at him a few years ago, Little Johnson.
  9. You will learn. Never schedule any travel that could interfere with a bowl game, unless it is some place good with your basketball teams.
  10. I hope not. I have seen football in the Astrodome, the Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome and the Carrier Dome (soon to be a cause of great litigation). Indoor football sucks. Football is mde to be played in the elements. The major elements in an indoor stadium are N and O2. Football needs, wind, rain, snow and cold.
  11. They may be distracted by a football game in Philadelphia Saturday afternoon that probably means more to them than the outcome of this game.
  12. Next summer the women's basketball team is headed to Europe to play in a tournament, They need to raise funds to cover the expense. Hanna Hall and Theresa Onwuka have all the details. If you missed Giving Tuesday or need a year tax deductible contribution please consider making a donation.
  13. Will only need a medical red shirt if he is looking for extra years beyond five at UB. He played in 2 games, so this year does not count.
  14. I did not think about doing that, because of how I was going try to get back to New York. I even tried to fly back after the game. However, that is not realistic with having to clear both security and customs in Nassau. I ended up with abut the same price with a free room at the courtyard Friday night and out first thing Saturday morning, for about hte same price JetBlue was offering.
  15. It may have played a role. https://footballscoop.com/news/fcs-program-announces-theyre-shutting-down-football-program/
  16. What is the point of this thread? Eight games in and you are basically looking for a change of coaches already.
  17. Hopefully, this is not how Jacksonville is paying for the basketball facilities. https://judolphins.com/news/2019/12/3/jacksonville-university-discontinues-football.aspx
  18. The rec center is not a sports issue. It is a quality of life issue for students. It is being worked on and should be announced soon. It is important for admission purposes to show what the school has for students to do and use.
  19. Game is not yet showing up on the SEC Network overflow channel or the extra ESPN channels on Directv.
