$290K for Sacred Heart

[oldngrizzly]

The largest $ ever paid to bring a team in to play the Griz. They could have got Carroll a lot cheaper.

With that kind of money they should have scheduled the Oregon Ducks to get the Cat fans to shut up about how great the Ducks are.

They could have scheduled the Billings West Golden Bears for a Montana bear bowl.

They should have just scheduled Missoula Hellgate for that kind of money…

Carroll was busy today

Cats weren’t!

Cats weren’t!

Yeah, so what's your point?

I cannot imagine the outcry if the Griz played an NAIA school. Oh, I surely am not advocating it; fans were upset enough with Div II Cent. Washington. Like it or not, Sacred Heart is a legit FCS program that came into Missoula with a 5-2 record.

I am sure the Griz Ad knew the record before he penciled them in

We could have payed the Cats to come play? Would love to play them twice in one year.

That is a dumber post than the OP.

He knew which games they were going to win before they had played any games? So he's clairvoyant now??

.....I'd rather have saved that $$ and put it towards an FBS move up fee.

So you would have been cool playing a game fewer than almost everyone else?

Got to spend money to make money. So you are suggesting we should have taken the bye for the week and made no money?

Seems like forking over a chunk of the gate $ to cover travel and expenses for an east coast team to come over here since they couldn’t do a home and home so that we could make some additional money makes a lot more sense in the world of NIL. How can we move up without exhausted every possible revenue opportunity?

Central Washington isn't much different.

Do your neighbors purposely avoid you when you walk out to your mailbox?

Central Wa is now 6-1 and about 7th in the D2 National poll as of last week. https://www.d2football.com/d2football.com-top-25-poll17603683532025/

Ferris St is no.1. As I noted in its own thread, the former Ferris qb starts for Ole Miss and is good. Ole Miss wanted Eli last year too.

I don't walk to mailbox. Neighbors mostly suck kinda like the club
