RE: Time for another edition of: Fraziers Corner
While Frazier has lost some luster in my eyes as well, you all have to admit that being an AD today is harder than ever. At least more complicated. And while shaking hands and remembering names is nice, it doesn't make someone good at their job. Unless that job is a walmart greeter.
It's apparent Frazier his shifted his focus away from the lower level donors and season ticket holders. That pisses many off in that group. But maybe he's focusing on the highest level donors and they all love him. Idk.
Even though football attendance is dropping, NIUs home per game revenue has increased steadily from 2013-2016. I couldn't find the numbers for 2017. That again is from shifting the focus to bigger dollar fans buying premium seating and club passes. Season tickets are very cheap. But with that low price comes low priority.
I'm not saying Frazier is great, but I wouldn't judge the guy's ability to do his job based on how much you like his personality. And when comparing him to past ad's, just remember they didn't have the state rip their budget out from underneath them or have the conference force them into a garbage tv deal.
