You think?  They get good showings for bowl games in Orlando and such, so I would think there's benefit for dominating a team in the face in FL for recruiting for a national brand.

Again, I don’t think they need to play us to get many of the FL recruits they want. Would it help a little bit? Probably. But not at the expense of losing traditional rival games.

Right but I don't think they get down here often anymore outside of bowl games.  I don't know.  Sunbelt Domers?

Maybe I am wrong but the way the whole Texas series disintegrated so quickly I have been tainted.

ND football has 2 players with positive tests - they did not play vs Duke. 

Should be an interesting week.

They will drop us and play one of their regular rivals by the time of the Tampa trip...see MSU, Purdue, Navy, etc. And if it’s a home game for them it will be worth much more than $500k.

What if we get creative with marketing and make it Boy Scout Day for the game? Could that maybe move the needle with higher ups and incentivize then to make the trip?

When is Lent? Can we have the game scheduled for then and then get them to give up big neutral field payday games for it?

As an atheist all I know is on Wednesday’s you get coal dust on your forehead and have to wear it around all day.

So maybe we can have it on a Wednesday and make that the giveaway, or on a Friday and giveaway Filet of Fish sandwiches. Clearly the game is more important to us and we have to come up with something creative to get them to actually show up instead of writing a $500k check that means nothing to them.
