Not going to quote multiple threads, but I'm going to reply to a few.

For one, Broderick loves sports and wants ODU to be successful. I don't know what his relationship is with Selig but he won't let him tank all of our athletic programs.

Next, I think ODU made a huge mistake. I'm Monday morning quarterbacking for sure, but I think we are all now seeing the P5 vs. G5 disparities, and all of the real ODU fans know that the sellout streak is nonsense.

I would love to have a nice 30k seat stadium, but some of you are kidding yourselves if you think that is going to make tons of new money and people show up. Our fans don't even show up now.

My concern is that our administration went "all in" like a poker game to go to FBS and a conference that provides zero rivalries. Now, they feel like they have to follow through on their promises so they're grasping at straws to see what ODU can afford. I understand the self preservation aspect of that decision, but I don't like it.

It's a pride issue for our administration, but the reality is that we can't survive in C-USA.

Hampton Roads loved a new football team to go watch, especially against our old CAA foes. The fans have no interest in watching a home game against North Texas and an occasional butt whipping by an ACC school.

I hate to say it but I actually would rather play JMU/W&M/UofR in minor league football and get back to more regional basketball. Forget the fact that our TV revenues have dropped like a boat anchor.
