So what benefit is there for Brighthouse/Spectrum at UCF?
So...there is no benefit for people using the name of your business to describe the venue every single time its mentioned?

And Miami has not won anything of significance since leaving the Orange Bowl.
0 ACC Titles. They are a Tropical Pitt at this point.

I live in Lakeland and drive to Haines City for work daily. So I get to hear both stations. There's a HUGE difference between the areas when it comes to the topic of Big 12 expansion. When Orlando two sports stations speak about UCF and the Big 12. It's like they're lobbying for the school. You listen to Tampa station and you get this sarcastic and negative tone.
"Like there's no way USF will be considered. They haven't been good for a long time. They're history too short. Top recruits don't consider them when picking schools. They don't have a on campus stadium. They don't feel the stadium. The men basketball program is under investigation." And the that really bothered me was Douchebag with the, " If USF got into the Big 12, they would be bottom feeders." The Tampa media is a joke sometimes.
Property sports town vs. only game in town. -

So...spring game attendance smack...lol

Where to start. We are talking about $400 a year? Seriously? Out of a minimum of $21k? It is always funny to me that there is never a news story about subsidies paid to athletic departments at P5 schools.

Will this ever happen? If we get to the point with media rights and legal issues, that the NCAA HAS to start paying players, can we ever get to the point where all of the D1 schools are given a hard salary cap. Let's say each school is allowed to spend $500,000 on their current roster and they have to offer four year contracts to players. This would create an amazingly level playing field in college football.
I guess the concern is that the Big 5 would just pull out of the NCAA and would start to pay millions of dollars to recruits.
Not going to happen

Serious question. Is USF that big in Tampa that even casual fans would interview this guy, immediately recognize his name and pass on him for employment? Sounds pretty unbelievable unless you bought down Auburn or Texas or Georgia.

Most every Div I team does this now to control the environment as much as possible the last 24 hours. Our guys are at the Westin Buckhead Atlanta.

Cut the cord 2 years ago and do not miss it. Have 2 smart TVs and one Roku 3 plus a Sony "smart" Blu Ray player. Also have antennas on TVs and get over 50 channels locally OTA. Also have Hulu Plus and Netflix for less than $25 a month after paying $180 per month for Directv. Have more shows than I know what to do with and the rare show that isnt on Hulu or Netflix is always on Amazon. About the only change I will make is from my nondescript ISP to Comcast this summer so I can get ESPN3.

I see. So how many butts in seats did you guys have for those games.
2005: 45, 139 at Raymond James Stadium
2006: 46,708 at the Citrus Bowl
2007: 65,948 at Ray Jay
2008: 46,805 at Brighthouse Networks Stadium
Attendance numbers actually are pretty close to butts in seats for these games.
This year will be a sellout in Orlando and next year will probably be a minimum of 50k in Tampa.
Thanks for confirming that. I think the person who was saying otherwise was looking at it through his FSU glasses.

ATTENDANCE has always been good
That is what I thought.

Was wondering if anyone has pictures of the crowd from you previous games in Tampa and Orlando. There is a debate on our board regarding our game next year vs. Georgia Southern and a detractor is saying that nobody cares about the USF/UCF rivalry and that the attendance figures are not a true reflection of the crowds that attended the four previous games.

Just noticed this on facebook, sounds like it will go through the tailgate area:
USF Athletics This will be 2 hours before game when the bus drops them off at the stadium. The team will come through the Bull Zone and the band will play. FB did away with their own polling, so we are using an 3rd party app. Please click on the poll itself. We'll make note of the votes that were incorrectly cast. Thanks for your participation!
This is the best way. Students are not going to walk far from the tailgate.
The majority of students are in lot 14 and are not going to come anyways.... this isn't directed toward the students.
Sorry, didnt realize all of your tailgate lots arent on the same side. All of ours is in the Orange and Brown lots. We havent gotten Falcon sized yet to have to use the Yellow and Blue lots on the North Side. So yeah in your case that should work out fine.

My two cents from experience...
At GSU in our first 3 years there was a Panther Walk of sorts at the Dome. The team buses pulled in to the lot underneath a parking Deck nearest the North (Gate E) entrance to the stadium because it was closest to our locker room. Taigating is in the South side lots so you had to walk literally around the stadium and down some steps one level to get to the "Panther Walk". There were never more than a hundred people and normally only a few dozen and virtually no students. Our new coach Trent Miles has moved the Panther Walk so that the buses will let out on the South side between the tailgate lots and the players will walk a half block and into the stadium from there. Further walk for them? Yes. But its a better experience for both the teams and fans. We heard many of the same objections from our athletic department for 3 years. But our new HC was adamant that this should happen.

ATL getting rid of the Dome is nuts. It's a great sports venue, they just want to host a Super Bowl and don't feel it will happen at the Dome. Not sure why, given the snow storm in Dallas, the issue with the lights in New Orleans, and the upcoming Super Bowl in NYC.
Were told by the NFL it WILL not happen. This whole new stadium deal is the train robbery of the century.
The NFL is giving the Falcons a $200 million loan. And the city $200 so they only need to raise $600 million plus and are all set.
IIRC the NFL loan is $800M
