Day of game pricing is absurd and I know for a fact that it has caused a few people to not come back again. I certainly have no issue with there being a cost difference between pre-sale and day-of purchasing, but this remains stupidly drastic.

$40 to park your car near McGuirk seems unduly excessive.

I've got a better idea. Determine parking fee AFTER the game as you exit. Blowout Loss- FREE PARKING, Lose by two TD's or fewer- $15.00, Win by a TD- $20.00, Win by more than than two TD's- $25.00

I've submitted this plan to Admin. :lol:

It’s only that price if not purchased prior to the game. Parking at McGuirk is very inexpensive compared to most college football,

If at the end of the game we have more points than the opponent, I'll pay $100 to park.

As long as they keep the lots next to Mullins free, I won't complain. At worst it's a 20 minute walk or $10 uber.

I'm more concerned with who will be the QB and how has the team looked the first 4 days.. Per usual we've heard virtually nothing. Hopefully the coverage will pick up this week.

Not a lot of people covering the team anymore. No masslive or gazette full time beat reporters.

If you guys want some humor go read some of the stuff over on the Boneyard... there are a few realists there but many are saying 4-6 wins for UConn is realistic with easy wins over CCSU, UMass, and FIU.. I get being optimistic, and they should be, but they have a tough schedule. They have the 47th rated schedule in the country.. ours is 130 (easiest) I think UMass ends up with 1 or 2 more wins than UConn.

I've seen more coverage of Uconn FB than UMass TBH and I don't look for it like I do for us. It's obvious our fan base is not as engaged yet. Hey, we don't even have a TV package for our home games yet (but the AD says we will)!

They are beyond delusional at the "Boneyard"........some of those morons say 6 wins......how about 1 win: Central CT state? They play 4 P5 schools and Liberty and Army. Why do you hire a HC who hasn't coached a down in 5 years?
