If we stink again they will have to buy out his final year.. If they do not they will bury the program for years
Unless they really do not care

Might be beyond "care." Even if they care just have to pinch every penny.

You just cant recruit with that cloud over your head

I would not advocate this but then the way to avoid a complete recruiting dumpster fire would have been to give him a year vote of confidence extension.. Then you keep him next year and your in the same position but with a better class and the hopes that finances improve

I was thinking about all this earlier today before signing onto the board. We REALLY needed to win last year to avoid the situation that we're in now. I totally agree that other teams are using Neu's status against us and you really can't blame the kids for being gun shy. And, as has been said, we certainly don't appear to be getting any "cream of the croppers", so it just makes it worse for whatever does happen. If we don't win this year, the staff has to go, no matter if it means taking up a collection.

That collection doesn't seem to me something a good AD would accept as something to bet a career on...

I’m on record for extending Neu 5 years at a reduced salary (Who’s going to offer him a job?). Puts the recruiting albatross behind us and generates a savings from the athletic budget. So ....we lose a few fans......no one will notice.
OK, so I’m the president of this mid major college and they’re squeezing me so tight that I can’t even fund a dollar weenie night..... Wouldn’t I look at a simple pie chart (that any business 101 freshman could put together) and then devise a simple little plan to divest myself of my biggest $$ pit?
Traditionally speaking, Indiana’s not a football state and BSU’s not a football college.

This may be a decision facing half or more of MAC schools. How long can the MAC hang on?
It's probably a half measure and not a good one, but my theory is the heat leads to downgrading FB not dropping it, bleeding smaller losses for a while.

Football has really picked up in Indiana at the HS level in the past 15-20 years.

I doubt that view is held by very many people outside of IN.. 15-20 years is hardly a “tradition”.

Lost another top target from warren central to Western.. Neus shaky status is killing us The only way we get higher rated recruits is to win games and surprise people on the field.

Well that deff helps.. You can also get a temp boost from a new staff. This happened for Neu and it's currently happening at BG they are killing it this year
