Why don’t we raise some money to send the entire 110 to our bowl game which I don’t think ever happens.
Is there some logical reason other than money to prevent that? Those in the know jump in! I’ll call them on Friday.
FYI:
The entire Marching 110 will be climbing into busses and going to the bowl game.
They thank everyone here for their generous contributions!!

How many Ohio fans are thinking I'd spend several hundred dollars to go to the bowl game if the 110 was going but since they won't be there I won't?
We could say that about alternate uniforms, an inflatable Bobcat head, a big scoreboard, a cannon, cheerleaders, professional announcers, color analysts, coaches call-in shows, press conferences, Youtube feeds 10 people actually watch and food spreads for fans at road events.

What an awful way to make every decision.

At the end, you’re left with soulless Wednesday night broadcasts on ESPNU no one is watching and a check that doesn’t even cover the expenses.

This was supposed to be fun.
You mean fun like barely starting a second page for Men's BB games fun, as we have been doing regularly this season? OUr beloved anchor sport fun and complaining about the MAC MBB anemic conference rating fun?
What does that have to do with people choosing to give their money to the band rather than the NIL.

The point is the garnishes matter, too. Without them you have a really mediocre football product that is playing a 6-6 team in America’s shittiest vacation destination.
I have said for years that the entire university is missing out on this concept. When the football team plays away games, we need to have 110 concerts in Peden at Frank Solich Field. Their popularity and the fact that people come to see the band and travel to see the band is a way to make extra revenue, and drive more attendance. Maybe we can get ESPN+ to broadcast the EVENT? Then we do not have to worry about medicore football games, or teams! We always have the 110, and that with an enlarged stadium for concerts will make us pioneers.
This is a really good point. One thing I never considered about the idea of expanding Peden to 60,000 seats: what if we used all of the additional seats to make sure the Marching 40,000 is at every game?
