Good point Mark, but over 5 years that is only 2 wins a year at home. we have also lost 20 vs. FBS at home.Posted On: Oct 30th 2016, 10:20 AM #361862
I didn't quote the fact thinking it was a good stat. It's more than 5 years. We are 2 home games from completing our 6th season in the stadium.

Sorry for the negativity Mark, but this staff is gonna kill your business and I really hope that those in S. Florida with a real vested interest make your feelings known about this!Posted On: Oct 30th 2016, 10:20 AM #361862
I am not going to blame football or anyone if it kills my business. It's on me. It's not a good business model to depend on something that is out of your control. I knew exactly what I was getting into.
In reality, football can be the icing on the cake, but it shouldn't be the cake. I need to do a better job of building a better cake, and then football can be the bonus when it happens.
There are 28,000 students and thousands of faculty just 4 blocks from my store who do not care about football but have tremendous pride in FAU. I talk to some of them every day. I need to do a better job to tap into that group.
I will be coming out with FAU Academic pride shirts that will be similar to sport specific shirts, except will say College of Nursing, College of Education, Graduate College, etc. This would be the first Academic-type gear in a retail environment.

And we have only played 2 FCS schools in it so 12 wins in 2 years? Just wow.

The two bottom teams in C-USA football are FAU and Rice. Two major baseball programs. Don't worry , this is my last baseball reference. Just sick of football right now.Posted On: Oct 30th 2016, 1:16 PM #361873
No problem from me on this, Go Baseball. Football until it proves us all otherwise is hopeless. And if our Admins. don't see this than…….
And Mark, even if we don't go to the UTEP game I will visit your store to support YOU!
It is just sad to me that you are nor =t being able to reap the benefits and your work and risk in the program being so totally awful.
Rememeber the stadium opened stinker under Schnelly? THAT WAS ONLY 0-20, NOIT A SEVEN TD LOSS AT HOME! WE ARE AT A NEW LOW POINT - HOW IS THIS EVEN POSSIBLE WITH A VERY MANAGEABLE SCHEDULE?
