We played at Chicago state last year so hopefully we are done with them

Hopefully, but I have a memory of it being a 4-year h/h. If memory serves, Birds would have to go there one more time in '23 and then close the book on it.

Oh I get that, and that's all true. I was just saying that those who do show up can do much better than sitting around on their phones. Of course I'd rather have them there hanging out than not at all, BUT they would have a much better experience themselves and actually enhance the atmosphere at the same time when they get into the game.

And one of the great fan shots was of an older couple . . . both on their phones . . .

Yes, the schedule is weak but we all should understand why. Building the program is not an excuse, it's a fact in this case. Pedon didn't get here until March. He had to assemble a staff and a team in pretty short order and scheduling took a back seat. He gets a pass on that for this season only. I'd think next season's schedule will look quite different. I think he even said as much.

Damn I heard the excuse anyway…

Should show improvement next season but I believe there will be return games with: WIU, EIU, and Chicago State, just to set expectations accordingly. I'm hearing next year's MTE will likely either be in Vegas or Southern California.

That would be awesome MTE venues.

They would have to change the dates of the holiday tourney as F1 will be in Vegas that weekend and the place will be a clusterf*ck.

I didn't say it was a Thanksgiving MTE .

But seriously, I don't know whether they are thinking Thanksgiving or Xmas.
