You would think that YSU would be overwhelming us with pictures and videos to build up interest and excitement. They are missing an opportunity to sell the university, they have dropped the ball.

Giving away free tickets to most home games doesn't help revenue as well.

I wonder what the payout is to Chicago State for the home game? I feel like the athletic department needs to keep the big game revenue (not just football but specifically mens bball) coming just to stay relevant as a department.  Other then the Loges we don't have the ticket sale revenue because of lack of attendance for football anymore.  Strollo does use our geographic location to maximize the big game revenue.  Kudos to him for that.

The only D1 teams that visited Beeghly were Niagara, Canisius and Robert Morris and they are now in the Horizon.  Akron and Kent haven't been on the schedule in years. Something tells me they refuse to come to Beeghly and that's why we don't play them at all.  Central Michigan (I think)  is the last MAC team I recall playing at Beeghly.  There just aren't alot of schools other then maybe St Francis or Morehead.

That's not true at all.  Last year YSU had 4 D1 home games scheduled before 2 cancelled on them, but still played Utah Tech & Navy played at home.  Year before UT Martin, Louisiana, Ohio & Southern all played at Beeghly.

We played at Louisiana in the beginning of the season. Did you get mixup with the last home game (NIT) when we played Ok St?

Lack of money to give opponents for home games of quality.   Still mind boggling that at the curbstone event that head coach said w. Michigan and Toledo at home.  Why the switch in venues??
