Let’s start schedule high school teams and go undefeated every year.

Please don’t take that suggestion seriously. We might lose to Timpview this year.

You disregard the quality G5 teams we would play.

I certainly hope you're not talking about the MWC as a "top G5" league.

benny1982

We have played the good G5 teams as an Indy. We can cherry pick them that way.

BYUSwoop

Like? We already consistently play most top G5 teams.

Specifically, BYU averaged almost exactly 2 per year vs. P5 teams prior to

It's because they are on ESPN so much and play so many "big" teams.

Tell me Sir, what is the wonderful Indy money doing?

TheLoneCougar

10/5/17 8:01am

If ROI has been poor, the solution is to do better, not give away the revenue

panguitch

10/5/17 8:08am

How are we supposed to "do better" when we haven't with an additional $20M?

TheLoneCougar

10/5/17 8:15am

So your solution is to take less money? Don't ever invest

Agree that Tom is overscheduling. That can be fixed.

Rocketman

10/5/17 8:44pm

That sounds like quitting. Overscheduled? You want to be indy and schedule down?

Blue streak

10/6/17 12:02pm

No need to play Top 10 teams. Tom can still schedule the ASU's, UCLA's, Arizonas

Rocketman

That is exactly what we have this year, and you're saying its overscheduled.

1st legit reason to stay Indy. If we could play 3-4 p5 as a G5 I would be happy.

you don't think losing about $15MM in revenue per year is also a valid reason?
