I posted that a while back. If folks want change the way to show that is by donating a lot more. If you "make a statement by stopping supporting with money" you're going to have the exact opposite effect. Takes $.

re: recruiting

reading this article from earlier this year... comical quote from our AD


ODU plays eight ACC schools over the next four football seasons. Selig says that as long as NCAA scholarship levels – 85 for football and 13 for men’s basketball – are maintained, ODU can be competitive with the ACC in all sports.

“It’s very difficult and very challenging,” he said. “But no matter how much they spend, as long as the scholarship limits are untouched, they can’t corner the market on every athlete.

“There are enough outstanding athletes to go around.”

We need to make changes to beat good teams or at least be respectable. I just can’t understand how people see these pathetic performances and can make excuses.

Does he know the definition of the word competitive?

The thread that refuses to go away.

Definitely good reason

In 8 games vs ACC schools we gave up 386 points. We scored 147. An average score of 48-18

Really looking forward to the rest these competitive contests, wood. Thank you

I won’t even bring up basketball. Competitive with the ACC. Makes my stomach turn.

Weekly bump.

From what I hear, Wood is well aware that Bobby is in over his head. No idea what he plans to do about it though.

Even if it means we lose any good recruits in this class it is time for Bobby to go.

Care to elaborate?

Sorry guy I disagree, I am not donating for this crap. There is a combination of people flat out not doing their jobs and good ol boy network going on. If enough people stop donating Wood will get the picture. I have been donating for over 20 years, along with my sister, ex-brother in law, and dad. They got us for Football this year but we all decided when we saw the Jones extension for beating HS teams last year we were not buying season basketball tickets for the first time in 15 years. Wn.

When they call 10 times, bugging you about donations or seats tell them your not donating and why?

This makes me feel slightly better. I feel change is upon us.

I'm on the train. This is an unacceptable product.

It sounds ridiculous, but a friend of mine is close friends with a close friend of Woods. Wood's friend told my friend that they were talking and Wood is realizing Bobby is not FBS quality. So yes, hearsay and he said she said, but I believe it.

Remember when he was on the “hot list” of up and coming coaches for prospective P5 openings.

It would be nice to have those points back now. Dumb a$$ calls.


Edit: sorry, wrong thread.
