Gotta do something to spur fan interest, which maybe - - maybe - - will motivate the football team to compete at a higher level.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2719122004661496164.post-83530722666296239392012-07-06T06:19:16.918-07:002012-07-06T06:19:16.918-07:00Thanks for answering my question, Mr. DiPrimio.

If from a central source, I would absolutely love to look at the data for all schools.<br /><br />On the larger issue, the fact that students will only receive a portion of the total games just returns IU back to what it used to do. My sophomore year, we only received SIX games.<br /><br />However, it does mean, if Glass and Crean are going to be faithful to their statements during the Kentucky negotiations (the ones about every student getting to see a marquee game), that IU needs to add one more marquee opponent.<br /><br />It's pretty simple: if not every student will get to see North Carolina game (or the marquee equivalent in a given year), then IU has to have two such marquee home games every year to ensure that each student sees a marquee non-con game.<br /><br />That, too, would return IU to past practices. Even with the Kentucky game, IU was down at least one and really two top-flight games compared to its historic scheduling practices (in periods when IU was at its peak).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
