Bro, where we get a lot of kids, there isn't PTO. You're lucky if both parents are in the home. Lots of broken families and unless they're getting the money from someone, they aren't flying. This isn't our stratosphere of wealth, but a different one we left or never knew. Obviously not everyone...

I think there's a lot of factors, but it's dumb to fly over an entire conference if both offer to play in the Big. You also have those schools across the entire country. Parents ideally want their kids closer to home. That's just a fact. You start sending your team up north, across the...

Conferences aren't regional anymore because of one thing, money. That doesn't mean the fans, parents, etc don't suffer for it. That gas is one plane ticket, perhaps even less. Four or five family members in a car, etc. Maybe NIL allows for low income families to travel more, but it's...

It's about parents going to games. I've known or met many through the years and they'd drive to the games. Often they'd hit the next weekend doing whatever between. Limited budget, it's certainly more viable hitting the road. Obviously some will fly, but again, you're passing a conference to...

How about those Westcoast schools coming on board? That's going to mess those averages up. If you've got the time, what a out the SEC average?

Worst take is people thinking that we'd get better treatment than in the SEC. We all know how ND thinks of us. The same is absolutely true of other Midwest folks. The idea that they would be anything different is laughable. Such silly fear mongering that one is better than the other.

And how far is it to the Big Schools? It's much further. I'm not talking about fans, I'm taking about parents. Every game is a monumental undertaking. You just drove or flew past every SEC school aside from a few to get to the Big school. Literally drove past or flew over. Again, you're...

I can't help it that people are dumb as **** on this issue. Cute gif.

Flat out, the Big would relagate us to perrrenial doormat. Why travel 1100 miles to play games when you can cut that in half and play schools of the same caliber or better in half the distance? We're talking road trips verse two days in a car or airfare. Recruiting wise, you just made it...

I think of it like a parent. The Big is closer by and large to where I live. Having said that, as our recruiting base is S. FL, who the **** wants to flyover a bunch of schools to play schools further north? Travel plans for our base would absolutely suck. At least everything is a day trip by...
