Are all guaranteed games structured to not include expenses or are some structured to cover expenses? Sometimes you can negotiate certain items like rooms and meals as certain schools have sponsorship agreements with particular hotels. The larger schools will give more money, but are also more physical for the most part. If you are going further than an 8 hour bus ride, it's better to try to negotiate a larger guarantee so that you are bringing home 300K after expenses. But sometimes, you have to get what you can. And I'm sure we feel more competitive with Tulsa as opposed to an Oklahoma State... Great Point. The larger the payout the messier the clean-up.

Look what FAMU got for their butt whipping at Ohio State. I heard it was $900,000! Great payday but man I bet their players took a beating. So far, other than East Carolina, I like our out of conference money games. Them farm boys at East Carolina however would like nothing better than to stomp them some HBCU players. But the other games we've got scheduled should be okay. I'm looking forward to traveling to the Midwest. By that time this little travel budget issue with the A&T band will be history and they'll probably make those trips. Unfortunately I don't see them flying the band out west so they'll have a hell of a bus ride! Hey, four days on the bus with the Golden Delight...oh the agony! But I know Ms. Tiffany don't take no mess.

But I know Ms. Tiffany don't take no mess. When FAMU got that $900,00 for the Ohio State game, $300,000 of that was for band travel. Since the band was under a University-imposed suspension, they could not travel. However, citing the long history between FAMU and Oh State, OSU did not reduce the guarantee one penny.

In one of the other threads, NSS intimated that Tulsa was one of the lesser FBS programs. Well...they were behind Oklahoma 31-38 in the 4th quarter before losing by 2 TDs today in Norman. They are no slouch.

I don't know who we call call or talk too but we need to schedule Campbell as an FCS opponent. They will soon be offering scholarships for football and will be joining the Big South in 2018

They will soon be offering scholarships for football and will be joining the Big South in 2018 Word is that Gardner-Webb will be on the sched for 2017-2018 (away-home). That would go along with the home game with Elon in 2018.

So just plan for 5 home games. If the Gardner-Webb deal holds up, we'll have 6 home games in 2018. We won't have 12 games again until 2019.

I hope you guys are joking about the Big South. I could get the appeal if the Big South were the equivalent of the OVC ( decent football and strong mid major basketball) but it does nothing for me.
