The good news is DD and his entire AAU team was at the UMass Fordham game, the bad news is how we played and the karma around the team.

I don't see what the two have in common. They are not mutually exclusive and one has no effect on the other. Both are good things and are positives for the university. One of my dreams is to have my grandson be the first Rhodes Scholar from UMass. Doesn't mean he can't enjoy a basketball game i.e ...

Let's say DK goes on a winning streak over the next couple of years, knocks off of a couple of biggies, top twenty program, advances into the late rounds of the tournament. The Mullin is maxed out for every game, the students actually think its cool to go to a game, alumni are clamoring to get in ...

I'm not privy to the contract information but I do know that FBS teams get higher payouts if they play at Michigan or any other venue than FCS teams. Even more of a reason for moving on up who would have thunk 5 years ago that ucon would be playing Michigan and Notre Dame and on top of that Michigan ...

Just noticed that ucon is playing Michigan next year also. Another reason for moving up to FBS is the difference in the payout for playing at FBS teams. I'm pretty sure that the payout to ucon will be higher than the payout to UMass for playing at Michigan next year

Why beat a dead horse? I for one am a supporter of the fball teams move to 1A. The only why the BE would consider UMass as a fball memeber is if we are already playing FBS fball. Ucon for a number of reasons got a great offer to upgrade their fball program and took advantage of it, Villanova did not ...

Let's say UMass Football loses 2.6 million dollars a year; which it doesn't. The annual budget for the UMass system is 2.6 billion dollars a year of which 20% is funded by the state. Which if I do my math correctly 2.6 million is 0.1percent or 0.001 of the budget. I know 2.6 mil is 2.6 mil is a lot ...

Losing money is the wrong term. The administration has decided that football as it is now constituted is worth plus or minus a $2,000,000 investment as a means of marketing, drawing people to the campus, presenting the band with a stage,attracting alumni, financial supporters etc is worth the ...
