Yes, Sycamore beat me to it and gave a great example.

Well…if you think we should just wait on charity to bail us out…that’s what we’ve been doing over the last couple of decades. It seems to be working out real well for us.

I’d rather us be proactive and actually give businesses a reason to want to invest with our brand.

Actually…pretty sure that’s a big part of Mike Hill’s job. He’s not doing very well at that so far…especially when i comes to revenue sports.

Maybe Biff can kick start that this Fall.

No one said that we shouldn’t be beating doors down----just the opposite actually. However, there are precedents literally almost everywhere that shows “some support” is the norm regardless of on-field performance.

That would be fantastic. We need more softball donors, we need more football donors, we need more baseball donors, etc, etc.

We need more people buying tickets, we need more people actually showing up. We need lots of things.

I think this is a big reason I prefer pro sports, we all know it’s about $$$. No need for pretense

I’m liking Biff more and more as this continues to grow legs. I feel like a guy that has had zero past connections to this state and definitely not CLT is standing up for the school more than others that either have a connection or have been here long enough to have built a connection to this school. I don’t know what his long term intentions are, but for now, I feel like he actually gives a sh!t about the school and this program; and damn others that try to belittle it.

I’m sure other “fans” and the community will continue to bash him until he leaves so that we end up with a middle school football assistant coach that is just ecstatic that we have enough gear for the entire team. At which, I will move my support to lottery tickets.

I think most of the fanbase digs what he is doing and realizes it’s necessary.

Agree, IMHO what Biff is screaming is, the mentality and thinking of “build it and they will come” doesn’t work in the current NCAA landscape any longer. There is no building without the raw materials. Everyone wishes that mentality was still in effect, but it isn’t, it was 3-5 years ago. Players want money, constantly updated facilities etc… I don’t blame them, because they are getting it promised at other places. The businesses have to put their money on the come line, lots of combinations that work and play the game to possibly win, but only a couple of craps numbers. Sometimes you hit 7 on the first throw, then you make money right out of the gate.

If Biff’s job was easy, we could have hired some App guy to do it

This is so funny, that was my first observation and thought about App State when I drove there about 7 yrs ago for the first time. “wow, they seem really proud of that mega wendy’s” I said to my wife.
