Livy I am not denying what you are saying. But isn’t Fullerton and Northridge just as broke as we are? Yet they can afford to bring in a couple of D1 home games. If we are even trying to sell tickets and bring in some revenue we are going to have to spend a little. No one expects LB to schedule Duke.

and we don't have the money for that...I have heard we don't even have enough to pay full scholarship/housing in all sports, let alone meaningful NIL money or giving money to other schools.
We are what we are, folks, and that is a hanging-on-by-a-thread mid major. Hell, Florida gave low 6 figures to lure a golfer away for God's sake....$100K TO A GOLFER!!! Previous Message
The next coach should be required to have a minimum of 3 quality HOME DI opponents scheduled every year Previous Message
As posted below, other BW schools have much, much better non conference home opponents. We've gotten so used to crap home non conference scheduling, we're all at the point of just begging for two decent DI opponents every year. This year, we barely got one (Sac St is low low end).
We have 13 non conference games this year. Since 3 don't count, its really 10 Div I games. The next coach should be required to have a minimum of 3 quality DI opponents scheduled every year. Then the 3 cupcake non DI schools can round out the non conf home schedule, and we can travel for 7 road games and some of these would be home and homes vs. Cali schools
Good job Monson! Big FU to all season ticket holders. Let the excuses begin Previous Message
Yeah Yeah, it’s hard to schedule home games. No one wants to come to LB. We don’t have enough money to schedule decent teams at home. Ticket sales aren’t enough. Etc, etc.
look if we ever want to build up we have to do better. Monson has it easy, Guaranteed wins.
Monson used to schedule better. He has contacts, he can schedule better if he wants. You would think the Team would want a better schedule too. Previous Messager
Read the posts below from season ticket holders to see why. The post showing other BW schools OOC schedules are why.
