Yep. Many of our fans thought we had made the Big Time when we went into the Big East, but it wasn’t just the fans, I think some in power also relaxed and thought we were safe. Eventhough the Big East was in lower end and never got the pay outs the others got.

Thats why is important to be on the top of the AAC for when and if changes do come. But it seems many of our fans are paralyzed and still living in 2007

Those Big East days had the worst long term impact on our football team.

That is definitely a better description of our shopping options, with the transfer portal being out thrift store equivalent. Never know what we could hit on ....

 

14. A legendary sweater

Coach Vince Lombardi, pictured here with Bart Starr, had worn the sweater in younger days.

Sean and Rikki McEvoy loved picking out cool vintage clothing to sell online. One day in 2014, they picked up an old West Point sweater at an Asheville, North Carolina, Goodwill store for just 58 cents.

After discovering it had some moth damage, Rikki McEvoy decided to keep the sweater and fix it up for her husband.

Later, the two of them happened to be watching a documentary about legendary football coach Vince Lombardi and noticed he appeared to be wearing the same sweater.

Sure enough, the McEvoys found Lombardi's name written inside the sweater. They got it authenticated, and sold it for $43,020.

Michael Kelly, Jeff Scott, and their wives wouldn’t know what the inside of a Dollar General looks like.
