Anyone want to see the rant again?
I could go for seeing that train wreck rant again. That was high quality entertainment. Didn't it get so embarrassing for him and his girlfriend that the moderators took it down?

RE: 8-1 Selig/ODU wants...news article
If there was a perfect rival for 1-a football it would be JMU. Some (though not all) of ODU fans wish you guys would get your CUSA invite. Would create nice little travelable sked of ODU/JMU/WKY/MTSU/UNCC/WKY. That's a nice grouping, and one that I would embrace. THe two games we had were great. I want more, and want more that mean something at the next level.
So please do not think this is some pissing on your 50-yard line event. We want you to join the party, for very selfish reasons.
Imagine how much faster that stadium expansion would proceed with $1MM paydays from SEC schools. This really is a win-win situation if you guys get your admin to get off their arses and play the cards that are your strengths. And you have good cards to play.

No, MTSU-WKU isn't as heated. Not as much history between the two.

I'll bet this is killing Razor, the "Pride of ODU". I wonder if he still has the girlfriend he so proudly displayed over on the zone.

Yep. I knew it was destined for removal so I preserved it for posterity before it was taken down. LOL. It's very epic.
Please, please, PLEASE post it. That was like the one month where I didn't check in on the zone. I've only heard rumors of this meltdown, but have yet to see it with my own eyes. Gotta love the hardo wedding photographer who looks like he takes his rec kickball league WAY too seriously and takes out his life's failures on an internet message board.

You're confusing razor Ramon with tmac, but they're essentially the same person, so I can't blame you.

I'm going to assume you're being sarcastic but just in case you're not WKU-MTSU have played each other in football 60+ times. And they pretty much hate each other.
Good luck Dukes getting to C-USA/FBS, I'm all for more drivable away games. It's been a little too one-sided to call it a rivalry just yet though.

Well, the results unfortunately have been one sided. The games, however, were exciting games w/ good storylines.

before WKU moved up, they hadn't even played each other in 20 years.
i'll stand by JMU-ODU being the best rivalry in CUSA.

I truly appreciate your post Smitty, and I agree it would be a win-win deal to find both JMU and ODU in CUSA. Not all of your brethren think that's true, and we've all (including both you and I) taken shots at each other's schools/athletic programs, but seeing JMU/ODU in the same conference would be in the enlightened self-interest of both institutions.

Wood added the below clause to Wilder's new contract.
"There are also incentives for ODU to overachieve – a $100,000 bonus for making the College Football Playoff, a four-team national championship playoff, and $350,000 for winning a national championship."

Nothing wrong with having lofty goals, but if Wilder wins a title at ODU, $350,000 will be a pittance compared to what he'll be offered by the coaching job he will be leaving for afterwards.

Ha, good point. There would be an SEC or Big 10 school glad to throw $5 mil/year at him.

Wood Selig reads the past, present and future contracts of ODU coaches?

Ha, good point. There would be an SEC or Big 10 school glad to throw $5 mil/year at him.
Chris Petersen is making $2M/yr, I'm sure given Boise State levels of success (or anything near that, let's be honest) ODU would gladly throw that kind of cash at Wilder. Still, you can never tell what motivates an individual and if the NFL or a team that could actually win an FBS championship, however that is manifested in the next 5-10 years, comes calling then the level of competition might be too much to not accept. Then again, maybe BW is settled, likes the area and this great project that he's made that's called ODU football.
It'd be wrong to assume that any decent mid-major coach will leave for the first big break that he's offered. It's also naive to assume that they wouldn't. That said, I think that BW wants to see just how far he can take ODU Football, from literally nothing to a bowl game perhaps? Maybe scheduling more and more SEC/B1G teams, perhaps even ranked at the end of a season. Non-AQ teams can do this, the MAC do it all the time, but there's only one really consistent team and that's Boise, one team out of 60 or so and ODU is not likely to get Boise levels of success, there's definitely a glass ceiling, but where is it? I don't know, but I'd love to find out.
