locally that would be found on WEMT Fox 39... not the 2 or the U, just the old regular network channel

Here's the listing of the stations that will be carrying the App State game vs. Va Tech: http://www.theacc.com/live/2011-acc-foot...ist-anchor

hate that for the school... all that prostituting and such....

too bad Jame Madison killed VaTech last year, they'll be watching for the Mountaineer's... rumor is that they've watched the Michigan game 10 times this week. poor, misguided football playing fools.

UMass and Holy Cross are on tonight as well. North Dakota is on TV, Murray State on ESPN U. Memphis, our sister institution to the west is playing Miss. State right now on tv.
By the way, wanna know who MTSU is playing for their 100th year celebration game? GEORGIA TECH.
All these FCS schools and mid tier FBS schools must be kicking themselves in the nuts for not following Stanton's plan.

Memphis just got finished with their John, SEC money will make a girl do a lot of things, I doubt they will respect her later.

That and Memphis has spend way more money on football that ETSU ever had. I hope Memphis doesn't have another down year in basketball would want the ole cash cow not to be able to provide "milk" for the football program.

I say this and Memphis has a chance, granted a small one, to some day not have an embarassing football program.

Shhhh.... don't let "GoBucsGoAndTakeYourADWithYou" hear you say that... he'll have you shunned by the Tigers for complaining.

I'll say this about Memphis. Interesting that they still rely on student fee funding from both the restricted fee (the highest amount in the state fees) and the allocations from the funding formula from student tuition.

Memphis is getting what they paid for with men's basketball... a slime for a coach (he can coach, now, don't get me wrong, but he's slimey as hell) and the one-and-dones... did just that... roasted before the party even got good. There's something to be said about looking at the long term when it comes to basketball and football and the impact that the win-at-all-costs will have down the road... any word on the violoations yet?? Ohhh I forgot, vacated 38 and wins and the Final Four appearance.... and yet Calipari still doesn't have a "show cause" on his record... too bad... the damage was done to the school and not to the slime... but I digress.

Memphis football is an interesting animal. Just when you think they've found the magic formula... nothing. By ETSU standards, they should have killed football there years ago... it sucks money, it sucks resources from other sports, and it just plain sucks...

BUT do we all know why it exists??? Class??? Anyone??? Ohhh yes... CONFERENCE AFFILIATION, and not just any conference... future conferences.

You might want to write this down, it will be on the test... FOOTBALL is the ONLY link for elevating your program to "the next level"... For those of you that doubt that, Mullins is teaching a class on ASun Philosophy. The text for that is called: "How to get left in the dust while smiling straight to the country club for tea"

Enough said.

The supplemental textbook for the class is:

Hatchet Man, From obscure tennis coach to athletic director, how to afford a home in The Ridges

Wow, you guys are idiots.

Is it good for your program to get beat 66-13 on the local Fox channel? That wasn't a national telecast, by the way. Don't know if you realize that. They didn't see that in California. But will that bring more people to your game on Saturday? HEY! The Hokies kicked our a**! But it was on TV! WAHOO! Honestly, I was surprised App State was beaten that badly.

Also, how about good ol' 1-10 Memphis from last year? Yep, they're kicking butt. How bad did Miss State take them out, was it 59-14? Is this LOSING the right way?

App made a huge paycheck. App got national exposure that money cannot buy. They got to play a higher division team on their home field in a game they were not expected to win. They have sense enough to know how to fund a FCS level program. And every person in the state of Michigan has heard of App State. And it is not because of their soccer team.

They got a paycheck, but they got smoked. National exposure? Not really. On Fox here in the Tri, but not nationwide.

The Bucs got paychecks like this too: From Auburn, Miami, Pitt. Not enough to save the program. You need that, fan support, marketability, and WIN. The football team only did one of those - got the D1 opponent, and only every couple of years. But haven't we beat this dead horse silly?

Need a plan. Still waiting to hear that plan. Gotta raise money. Gotta find local deep pockets to get behind it. Gotta get the locals convinced that going to an ETSU game is better than watching an orange one on TV. I would go watch the Bucs play football, I would be in the stands for @ least most games. But I also see the importance of supporting the local team, and local economy. Not sure that's a shared view amongst most that live here in the tri, unfortunately.

IDIOT??? I feel fairly confident that I'm not an idiot.... most others on here aren't idiots... you arguing your with your on-going bullsh1t excuses is probably on the idiot level... but pretty sure "OUR" questions and outright distain for the etsu philosophy is more on the scale of higher level thinking... unlike those that have been beaten into submission.

Here's a tidbit for you... the ACC Network Game of the Week was carried in 70 markets. Raycom covers 46 stations in 18 states... the other channels were picked up based on ACC designations. So it wasn't just on the TRI, Fox...

Yes. They got their a$$es handed to them. The intereting thing is that App doesn't even have to play "money" games anymore, they make more playing a home game... but they have three in a row coming up in Sept. They play for the exposure in markets. I know for sure they wish the score wasn't so bad BUT I assure YOU... there's some kid, let's say a freshman in high school, that watched that game in TEXAS (I know Texas had the game because I got a text from a buddy on that 2nd play that was muffed by ASU, he was pissed, not an App grad but pulling for a SoCon team)... anyway... that freshman is seeing the Block A for the first time and saying "If I were playing for them, I could be helping them beat the Hokies".... and that's how it works.

1) Money for your budget
2) Venue (or what was it Mullins called it? Destination city? for your travelling fans
3) gathering spot for alums that don't get back "home" very often
4) EXPOSURE OF YOUR BRAND to known and unknown markets
5) Opening doors for recruiting

(I forgot to even mention how your .edu website gets to glowing when your team is playing in a new region or market).... guess that makes me an idiot...

BY THE WAY... those idiots up at Marshall just drew first blood against BIG BROTHER WVU on ESPN... GO HERD!

Dang dude... you need to do your research before you start spewing... here's the affiliate list of where the game was carried yesterday.... SO YES>>> IT WAS SEEN IN CALIFORNIA!!

Those $$$ games were PRIOR to the assessment of the restricted student athletic fee. Since the first round of fees of $25 per semester in 2003, it's gone up several times and is now at $250 a year (last figure I saw)... that doesn't include the allocation of the student maintenance fee money which looms at around $4.9 million annually...

so your constant droaning about "no money for football and why should be penalize other sports" just has no real justification... ETSU's enrollment is 3rd in the TBR... MTSU, Memphis, and ETSU... the other TBR schools don't get close to the allocations that ETSU gets, yet they still seem to "get it"... As far as UT Martin not being a TBR... irrelevant... same funding structure as all Tennessee schools have via THEC policy... NO STATE FUNDING... UTC gets that same practice as well, but their student fee is less WITH LESS STUDENTS!!!! lol...

DE PLAN< DE PLAN... The plan, my friend Tattoo, is the same plan that was given to the Governor in the second meeting in Nashville. It's the same plan that Dick Sheridan, Rochael Laney, and David Lattimore helped to assemble for the Task Force.... the same blueprint that WOULD HAVE HAD A TEAM ON THE FIELD in 2012 if the PRESIDENT wasn't an outright liar about the "requirement" to have a student "vote"...

So yes, there's a plan.... if you want to see it, go to the Iris Glen administration building this Tuesday for the monthly meeting of the Football Foundation.

First of all, no it wasn't, not on regular TV anyway. For example, in Lexington, KY, Wazoo sports is only seen on people who have digital TV (not Direct TV or satellite or cable). I know that because my in-laws live there. So very few people are seeing that even in Lexington, KY. I'm not sure what MyNetwork TV is in California, but I bet it's the same. So you're right - some people got that in California, but very few and it's hard to say that really affects recruiting to any great amount. Regardless, if I'm an Appy State fan, do I want them seeing my team getting thrashed 66-13??? Not really. I'd be happier if people didn't see that silliness.

Right, "Da Plan." I have to go to a meeting to find out what "Da Plan" is. Can't find out here. Can't find out online. Can't find out anywhere. Keep it secret -- even better. Lattimore had this great plan from TN Tech, and TN Tech sucks in football. No playoffs. And are they good in any sport?

UT Martin is NOT a TBR school. My question was what the last TBR school - that's who is directly relevant. You still can't give the answer to me. This conversation is clearly going nowhere, best to end it.

I watched the first quarter and then switched to see if I could find a game that was at least somewhat competitive..probably most folks who did not care about either of these schools did the same, which would have been a good thing for ASU.
I just kept thinking that if the ETSU basketball team had been humiliated like that on national TV, how bad some would have come down on coach Bartow.. I can imagine what some on this board would have said...It would have been NASTY!!!!!!

We did get humiliated like that on TV not that long ago, Kentucky anyone?
There are some major differences between football and basketball.
Div I is divided into divisons in football with different scholarship
alotments. Also basketball is 5 on 5, one really good player that slipped
though the cracks can make a huge difference in basketball, (think Curry)
then could ever happen in football. Plus in basketball you can scheme things to slow the pace of the game down you can't do that in football, coaching can have a much greater impact in basketball.

gobucsgo

You must get your paycheck from stanton and dave. You fit in perfect with their lack of vision and lack of understanding of how our peer instutions operate. You also seem to lack understanding in what students, fans, recruits and communities support when it comes to athletics.

As far as people on this board being idiots, it the ones that come on this board that are armed with stanton and mullins hogwash that are the idiots.

You better get your facts right when you talk to the majority of this board because idiots will be quickly exposed, IDIOT.

Glad Tennessee Tech's plan is working for them at this point. You know the Plan, to NOT KILL Football and not be the laughing stock of the State.
