Holmoe: Will you guys do a one and done home game with us? We'll pay $500K.Originally posted by Scorcho View PostScratch, I'd like to see the transcripts between Holmoe and Middle Tennessee St.
I'm looking for Moonshine stains an to see if I could enlarge it to fly behind a plane during the Poinsetta Bowl.

MTSU (he's never going to go for this but what the hell): Hmm, any way you could do a home and home with us?
Holmoe: Let me check with Bronco, hang on.
Holmoe: Bronco says yes, let's do it. Have you ever heard of a church fireside? Anyway, Bronco's excited to come out to Tennessee, so it's a go. But we're independent and need games late in the season. Can you do it for November?
MTSU: Well, we're in a league so we already have games then, but we can do it in September.
Holmoe: DEAL!

SJS and I welcome you to the club of BEAST supporters. Everyone else will come around eventually but you get he super nice seats for being an early adopter like us.Originally posted by The_Douger View PostIt really depends on our access to the 7th bowl game. If we don't have access then I think we need to join the Big East, start playing nice with others, and use our facilities to help our conference situation.
We're not going to get an undefeated season playing a bunch of one and done's at top 20 program's stadiums. Plus, it's disappointing to the season ticket holders to see all of the good games we get be on the road. I get next season is a nice schedule, but is that a watershed for indy or something consistent? We haven't shown any ability to get good teams to come to our place without a 2/1, and multiple teams are wanting to cancel games with the changing landscape.
If we had a bunch of teams lining up to play 1/1 matchups with the occasional one and done or neutral game, it would be one thing, but the only team with any name that wanted a 1/1 is GaTech, and they opted out. Utah wants less games, ND has an uneven agreement with us, and there's rumors of those games being cancelled as well. Boise's a good long term get, but their coach didn't sound like he wanted to play all the games that have been agreed to as well.
Swallow the pride and join the Big East. Win that league and you'll be the highest rated team and will get access to a BCS type of game against the P12 or B12 #2, and that's a decent prize. There's plenty of opportunities for "exposure" by playing the teams in the BE. There's games on the East Coast, San Diego, and Texas in that league. I get it's not ideal, and if we can swing a B12 invite, great, but I think we bungled that up as well.Dyslexics are teople poo...

Train wreck and shit sandwich? I look around and see smashed up boxcars with independence stamped on the side. There are paramedics on the scene and they just zipped up the BYU football program in a body bag. This indy sandwich is definitely a shitty one.Originally posted by Coach McGuirk View PostA super nice seat to a train wreck and a shit sandwich to snack on.Dyslexics are teople poo...

Yes let's join a conference where the 5 teams you would actually tolerate playing are actively seeking out of the conference.Originally posted by Flystripper View PostTrain wreck and shit sandwich?

I've enjoyed independence, but then again, I've actually been going to the games. Home and away.
