Just wondering if you have events for NSD open to the public or restricted by donation level or at all.

We generally have an event The night of signing day. Its free to donors, but only a small charge to nondonors...so its for just about anyone.

Not sure if we are still having it this year under Malzahn or not though...

Last year the event was huge for the Cajuns and with all the excitement of the season, the Bowl, and the # and quality of the recruits----It will be great!!!! The Indoor Practice Facility is the perfect place for the food, drink, merchandise sales, huge viewing screen, Spirit groups and talks by coaches and administrators------Again We thank TROY for our AD!!!!

Thanks for the info guys

We've had three signing days and there have been free public events for all of them. They've included highlight videos, comments from coaches and the athletic director and a Q & A session.

FAU used to have a little thing at the Oxley I believe. This year they are trying something new...

Tad pricey IMHO.

Well, if you were looking for an opportunity to get to know Coach Pelini and his new staff, here it is!! This is a charity benefit with proceeds going directly to the Football Excellence Fund to help Coach Pelini continue to build the FAU football program.

This event was planned to coincide with National Signing Day so Coach Pelini could showcase the new FAU recruits and allow him an opportunity to formally introduce his new coaching staff.

That is a bit much. Our first two where open to the public. Found out yesterday that this year it will be open only to donors at the Bronze ($1000) level and above. Some don't seem to realize that for real football fans this is our NFL Draft Party. Exclusivity is not the way to sell a program at the mid major level. We're not Texas
