    How can any self respecting Hall alum not put El Greco in their top 10? Lol

    Student season tickets

    I'm just drawing on some experience analyzing last minute building filling offers. While the audience isn't SHU students (it's pro sports with an audience of working adults) we've tested offering both free and deeply discounted (as low as $10) tickets to a select audience and while the paid...

    Student season tickets

    No reason to give away free season ticket packages. I do consider offering free student tickets to be the best strategy, but that should be executed at the individual game level. I also support selling student season tickets, but the selling point should be paying for guaranteed access to the...

    Student season tickets

    I'm a little confused by raffling off the parking pass... isn't the idea for students to take the busses?

    What do you think as regards SHU?

    The no-show issue fixes itself when demand gets high enough for it to matter by offering tickets to those with high show rates first and those with lesser ones may miss out, especially for the highest demand games. Until then, is a claimed ticket that doesn't show any worse than an unclaimed...

    What do you think as regards SHU?

    Single game student tickets should be free. Throw out an optional to buy student season tickets for those who want to guarantee a seat for every game without going through the free ticket distribution process. It comes down to recognizing what the students are to the college game and what...

    As Big Ten, SEC hold on vote, Senators growing impatient over Protect College Sports Act

    It's ridiculous that Congress is wasting time on this. Do they really have nothing better to do than over regulate college sports? Just another example of the government sticking it's nose where it doesn't belong. They act like they know they they're talking about, but the reality is that...

    The World Cup finals

    It's an interesting question ... maybe worth it's own thread. It would certainly be different, I don't necessarily think worse, but the gambling aspect is why it'll never happen. There's too much money in brackets and a group stage means you can't bracket out the whole tournament from the...

    The World Cup finals

    Spain was sitting back and letting Argentina possess the ball after the goal, much like Argentina was sitting back and letting Spain possess the ball prior to it. Spain's style of spending large chunks of the game simply playing keep away really forces teams to sit back and let them have the...

    The World Cup finals

    I appreciated Spain's aggressive start, unfortunately they didn't keep it up and settled back into conservatively holding the ball, and Argentina were content to let them. It was never realistically going to be as fun as the 3rd place game was, but an Argentina goal would really open it up.

    Spain v France

    Spain didn't start getting chances until France started pressing them, that's why I disagree with you on that. You watch Spain enough to know that they want teams to press them. The more France tried to push up the field, the more the scoring chances favored Spain. Of course, they had to...

    Spain v France

    Sloppy game overall. Early pen forced France to chase the game, which plays into Spain's hands though Spain actually sat on the lead more than I expected. France needing to chase opened a lot of opportunities that Spain could have attacked if they desired.

    Spain v France

    Not sure I agree on what style would best suit France. Spain loves to hold the ball, but it hasn't led to lighting up the scoreboard other than against Saudi Arabia. If they haven't been able to pick apart weaker defensive sides than France, I don't see why they should be that concerned...

    Knockout round

    If he caught Salah after the ball in the same action, I would agree with you but that's not the case. He gets a clean touch on the first action, but then reached back for in for a second kick at it that trips Salah and doesn't get the ball. It's definitely soft, but so was the one they called...

    Knockout round

    Either Egypt's goal counts or Argentina's 3rd doesn't. It was the same thing.
