I wonder if the basketball series will be revived now that Huggy is gone.

I actually hope it doesn't. We can't compete with them now. Have you seen the roster reveries has put together and what we are doing? It's a different world now and they can compete and their administration expects it. Ours does not.

Everyone will have to make their own choice, I decided to do all I can by attending when I can to help Corny succeed in years two and three; and if he can, many more years to come. I hope we both get to attend.................

Some of you still think you are building teams by saying year 2-3. Year 2 will be tougher than this year. He won't have Oak and Martin to build around. He will basically be recruited an entire team year 2. This is the year he needs to succeed.

Yes the schools should compete in all sports and Marshall should honor a 2-1 or even 3-1 in football. Basketball, as we have seen should be played in Charleston or rotate basketball between Charleston, Morgantown and Huntington. I do agree that Marshall should be fairly compensated for trips to play in Morgantown, let's not take the cheap way out WVU.  It's simply ridiculous to see WVU and Marshall schedule IAA or MAC instead of playing each other when it comes to football.

Need to look at exposure for both programs and what's best for the state. This is a great opportunity to build something over several years of consistency into national exposure in sports across the board. The state needs positive coverage.

We should be paid the going rate for a Top G5 opponent.  What I never understood is why the state doesn?t mandate it.  Both schools get state funds and WVU is shipping tax payer dollars out of state.

Exactly.  We can sell out each other's stadium, so we should.  Be nice to see them pull the tarps off the Joan and rock that place every other year.

Bottom line is the that the two of the three largest crowds at the Joan were games with wvu. I am sure the HTS business community would love the revenue the game brings to town. For those of you who object, come up with plan for Marshall to get an alternative way to get that type of revenue unless you plan on writing a check to Marshall? VA Tech didn't fill up the place and I doubt if you ever see UL or Purdue return to the Joan.
