They want to host 8 big college games a year in addition to the CB. It's hard to compete with this for the attention of un-affiliated fans.

F JERRY....IF IF we get to Boise type status, maybe we play there in BE?

All the more reason to start winning big right now.

One of my concerns is that these Jerryworld games give other teams entre into the Dallas market for recruiting purposes. At least in the past they had to schedule either us or TCU to play a Div One opponent here thus bringing us a little bit of attention and a lot of ticket sales. Texas and OU have long understood the value of their arrangement for recruiting purposes.

Until you go to a game there.
Pay $300 a ticket.
$75 parking.
$10 beer.
2 hour drive time
And find yourself watching the game on the big screen.

Unless its your team - no value

But getting paid $4.7 million each to play a regular season game is very lucrative to the teams involved.

But they have travel costs. LOL
