Here's another dumb NCAA rule

I'm watching the Atlantic Sun championship between Jacksonville and Bellarmine

Bellarmine just moved up to D1 last year

But if they win this game they don't go to the dance because they aren't eligible....WHY? Why do they have to wait to be eligible? And if they aren't eligible why are they in this tournament? If they win, which I think they will Jacksonville STATE will make it in because they were the 1 seed.

Why is this reality?

Agreed it's a dumb rule. And I hate it for Jacksonville, but....on to the next game. Wright State vs. Northern KY

Hi everyone, I wanted to give an update on your little man. He made it to Vanderbilt’s Childrens Hospital safely yesterday. His surgery for coarctation of aorta was supposed to be today but got canceled and now we don’t know when his surgery will be. It’s been incredibly difficult and even more now that we still don’t know when he will get taken care of. If you guys could continue the prayers we would greatly appreciate it

Continuing to pray. Pray that God will give you Patience and Peace.

Why are they unable to attend regular season games?

Most can’t afford it. I’ve been lucky that I could provide my son and granddaughter with game day experiences. Orange and White game has always been a way for everyone to enjoy Neyland and seeing the team with spending little money and I think it helps build our fan base through youngsters memories of going with their parents.

To the good games that is true but there is several games on the schedule that you can take a family of four for forty dollars or less.

Tickets have been pretty doggone cheap the past 5-10 years, but I can see your point if you're talking about a chance to sit close to field. We live in Knoxville & have season tickets and have gone to O-W several times but I don't really enjoy it anymore since they don't even seem to scrimmage anymore. I guess we didn't go to any of Pruitt's - Butch screaming on his mic was the last straw for me.

Not true unless you can walk to the stadium from your home, don’t buy anything to eat or drink. Are you going to take 8-10 year old children on a hot Saturday afternoon without spending money on overpriced drinks and likely an overpriced hot dog. I doubt it.

If you go to the orange and white game….. all those other things come into play as well…. The only thing different is the price for tickets.

Not really. Ticket prices (granted you can find some cheap for OOC games), food prices (try telling your family that $40 is too much for 4 hotdogs and water to a hungry 8 year old), snacks during game plus gas. For a average family, it mounts up.

You still have those other issues at the orange and white game….. The only difference is tickets.
