I love how our fanbase has convinced themselves that if Ron Prince did it, it's wrong, even two full years after he's gone.

Try to schedule a game that gets on TV?  Disaster
Improve team speed?  Stupid
Recruit an elite QB?  Pointless


Ahh yes the "defend Prince crowd" :flush:

You're 1/3 tard, Saul. I don't think I have a problem with that.
You've fallen in to the trap i've sprung, michigancat. 

shouldn't it be into? also, i don't care about non conference games against good opponents either. i would prefer to play the worst teams possible in non-con every year and play them at home every single year. it is fun to go to football games and win. the more you win by=the more fun. best case scenario would be to schedule nothing but non-con home games that the cats win by 70. tough to argue w/ that, although i suppose if you spend your fall months picking apples from the apple tree and fishing in lake erie then you'd probably just as much want to play auburn at auburn so that you can watch it on your television.

I like watch the cats on ESPN as much as the next guy but Mangino's work at KU pretty much ended this debate.  However, I don't think KSU can afford to buy 3 D1 home games every year so look for 2 for 1s with the Sun Belt to continue.

we are going to have to go on the road some, no doubt. just be smart about who and where. the north texas game last year was great and so is the '12 against ucf.
