James Madison loses 130 K on bid to host first round playoff game

<< < (2/2)

paladin:
The CAA is a possibility.

BTW, Cookie, love the Xavier logo. My post grad degree was from X. They are on TV often and decent in basketball. And, still got my X sweatshirts,lol.

CookieMonsterSig:
Don't think it's a must for YSU to go to the CAA but at least take a look at the feasibility, if a spot opens.

I spent a couple of years working at X after grad school. X is a great school with a strong, caring community. This time of year I really do miss the free faculty & staff basketball tickets.

paladin:
I agree. The CAA would present some unique options for YSU and can't do any worse come playoff time.

 My X degree opened some doors for me and paid off handsomely. Enjoyed my time there. Used to  run around with Johnny Bench up in Mt. Adams. Great times.

Spiderlegs:
Nice analysis on CAA, but if geography were the issue, it would be the NEC, which would be even closer than CAA and which include regular games against three teams in western PA against whom we already play. The path to NCAA tournaments would be easier and in some sports we might be the behemoth. However, the NEC is trying to upgrade itself, so it might welcome YSU.
 
We are actually a very good match for Horizon, home of Midwestern Rust Belt cities. I can see why YSU would want to keep this relationship. The obvious problem is football.

James Madison paid way too much for that first round game.
