Would JP allow any correspondence with donors and season ticket holders that he did not approve?
I'm sure it's a block letter that someone handwrites and uses an autopen on or something.
Is that a rhetorical question? Because I said earlier in the same post that he certainly would have approved it, because it's going public under his signature.
Been thinking the past few days that even good news would not be met well on this board or throughout the fanbase. I'm sure Pollard sensed the same.
We have been season ticket holders for 18 years and that may end not because of how the season ended but because my wife has missed games during the last two seasons due to health issues. I hope the end of the season doesn't impact season ticket sales.
Gotcha. My guess is that there is some very routine stuff that goes out under his name without his involvement, but probably nothing without his knowledge.
Good point. Exactly twice prior to the 2010s, dating back to Big 8. I couldn't tell you how many 1-and-out trips we've had without looking in the archives.
It does annoy me when fans use "conference tournament title" interchangeably with "conference championship," but acting like it isn't worth mentioning annoys me almost as much. Even worse -- winning it somehow happens only at the expense of regular season success/winning NCAA Tournament games. As if there's only so much in the bucket.
Winning the conference tournament beats not winning it. Let's leave it at that.
This is pretty much how I feel.
It does annoy me when people say we "won the Big 12" when we win the conference tournament. Regular season title is absolutely more meaningful, and harder to do.
But...winning the conference tournament guarantees you a bid to the NCAA's. It's something that still gets recorded in the books. And it's hella fun.
Both extremes are stupid.
As of now, the way to get an automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament is to win the conference tournament. The winner of the tournament is officially the Big 12 champion as far as th NCAA bid is concerned.
Same is true for just about eery conference.
I, like many on this board, am disappointed with this year's football season and this year's basketball season (so far).
But this year in both sports are a lot better than most years in my memory.
and whats best for our program in Basketball is getting rid of an under achieving coach who just had probably the most embarrassing loss for a D1 program.... Football we are better off then we have ever been.
While I don’t like how Jamie promotes Jamie, I agree on this point. He does do the little things like this well.
I read Jamie's letter. Not going to bother reading the comments from the rest of you.
