The approximate 400k that Marshall received annually from their half of the gate for the capital classic.

That is twice your football TV revenue given to you by WVU and he ran his mouth and lost it. Thank God for him Marshall runs the AD like government and not like a business because in a business that would be an axe.

Sneer at him if you will, dave, but Danny has a plan.

That plan is to win multiple national championships and then demand that WVU play in Huntington on a 3 for 1 basis.

Look out!

Chicken suits on the steps of the Capitol, "Bring your dog if you're "skeert", and the "doctrine" are all starting to pay off.......

"The WV taxpayers will pick up the tab...as usual."

Didn't it cost WVU $400,000 as well for taking a powder? Hahahahahahahahahahah

You must be confused, Tony. Haven't you 'herd'? The World Wide Leader in Sports is dishing out top dough to place this 'in demand' tilt in its Saturday night prime time spot. Big time matchup of two 'directional schools' in their respective states - WESTERN Carolina & WESTERN Virginia. A no miss tilt for sure.

Marshall fans will miss it because it will be a "Save our Program Bake Sale" Saturday in poorville.

Only the Cousins would rejoice in blowing a Nationally televised game and a $400,000 gate for a replacement game with WCU....all under the guise that they've somehow "punished" MU and Danny! WVU 71 WCU 58 before 5,000 bored fans!
 
I'm just surprised that a guy that patterns himself as some 'tough guy' would take his ball and run home to momma. I'm just glad rival coaches of programs across the country don't follow his lead. Otherwise, rivalries as we know them would certainly come to an end.

From my perspective, it would appear someone needs to grow a sack.

When it comes to MU, the boys from Morgantown have always been afraid of their own shadow! Seems like they'd want to play us and kick the shit out of us every year if they're so superior but they take just the opposite tack.....better to never play and just claim they're better.
 
At the very least, the Northerners should sit down as a group, and come up with some better excuses as to why they don't want to play. Being upset with what Chuck Landon types out is not a justifiable reason (in my opinion). Not to mention, I've read multiple posts in regard to how much money they're now making, something to the tune of 30.4 million. I'm not sure what Greyhound charges these days, but it has to be within the budget to ship the boys down to Huntington for a few athletic events.

Full retard again tony? You shouldn't hang out with Mighganturd. His stupidity is evidently contagious. After yet another beat down and winning 9 out of the last 10 nobody is afraid to play MVU. The boorish grade school behavior the MVU has displayed over the last 20 years gets old. But hey you can claim a moral victory next year when play .500 ball. It is what MVU is best at doing.

I guess that's the difference between us ...we look at the scoreboard, they look at their checkbook!

That's correct. As Herm Edwards says, "You play to win the GAME". I don't believe I've 'herd' Hermie comment about playing to lose and brag about getting paid to lose. But, to be fair, I may have missed those comments. I've seen them listed here though.

2-0 (2016 baseball), 18 point beat down (men's basketball) 11 in a row (women's basketball) and 12-0 (football). We don't have to look at the score to know the outcome against MVU because the result are always the same. But hey kept going for those moral victories since real ones are so damn allusive.
 
Herdies just want that ONE WIN. In their feeble minds that wouldn't even the records over the years. I've never seen such a bunch of whining wishing wannabes.

Let 'em rot WVU owes them nothing.
It is kind of strange how they post stupid stuff without even thinking about it. How many times has ESPN picked up the MVU WVU basketball game? Not many. How many games do we play on national TV annually? Over 25. How many times have they beat us in the recent past? None. It is not like we will not make as much or more money from playing someone else this year in basketball. They cannot see their own stupidity since they're neck deep in it.

Agree 100% on their stupidity....They feel entitled to something they have not earned and with their budget most likely never will. Just beating a dead-horse over and over wishing for something that will not happen.

"we look at the scoreboard" - no you don't. You look at moral victories.

"Only the Cousins would rejoice in blowing a Nationally televised game and a $400,000 gate for a replacement game with WCU" - Nationally Televised game? hahhahahahahahahahahahahaahahahahhaahhahahahahahahaahahahahahahahahahahahahahaahhaahahahahahahahahahahahahahah. Tony, when was WVU-MU basketball nationally televised?

Greyhound hauls teams north too........and we could afford to pick up your travel costs if you'd just accept your place in the pecking order.

Football Coaches of America have already established the pecking order but we're not suggesting you boys should have to travel to Huntington every season!

So..........how well are the Football Coaches of America paying these days? You got votes in a poll and short changed by Al-Jezeera. The Big 12 rewarded us with a HUGE paycheck.
 
Well Buzzard, I don't know about everyone else, but my salary isn't impacted financially in regard to how much cash is handed out to the Big 12 or the CUSA. I can only clearly state that I relish in 'on the field' success. Since you're slow, let me state it in a more simpler, down to earth fashion: I'll take the wins. You can sleep better knowing the Big 12 makes money.

When one has an unlimited Letter of Credit from the WV General Assembly why would one worry about some TV contract?

Keep on enjoying your wins against a bunch of nobodies. I'm not so slow that I can't see that all that matters to your is W-L, regardless the level of competition. Too bad that with all of your superior intellect that you are left wondering why you win 10 or 11 games and no one respects that. Strength of schedule matters to everyone who isn't a Herdiot. P-5 conference affiliation pays the bills for us big boys, the WV taxpayers foot the bill for you wannabes.

Michigantard doesnt care that Marshall makes no money because he is too poor to attend games anyway.

Good luck with that. The state subsidy for both schools is gone soon. Marshall will lose millions. Wvu will lose 50k.

The only marshall fans who dont care about the TV contract are the ones who dont care if they go back to FCS because that has effectively happened now. Marshall will have to cut scholarships to even the books

Oh Lord, thou hast no shame in the destruction of the weak and defenseless......
 
With one exception....West Virginia profits $40 for every $1 invested in WVU.
WVU spends tax dollars on meaningless things like educating doctors, lawyers and engineers. Marshall wastes tax dollars on a money pit athletic department that plays in a fuking shithole dump of a stadium and hoops in an arena that most biddy ballers would be embarrassed to call home.
