I said I may not be explaining it well so I took ownership in your confusion not sure how that is being a prig. You sure acted like you didn't know.

They announce the special pricing late - dynamic pricing means they price it once they see how many tix they have sold or not. Maybe early in the season they do less of it. For some reason you are having trouble understanding the concept of dynamic pricing - maybe I am not explaining it well enough for you - the issue is they do dynamic pricing during the year at times.

Normally they sell tix for $5 - I have no idea if they have anything for Saturday - I have season tix. This is called dynamic pricing and all teams use it - based on pre-sale they determine if it is in their best interest to do this.

Those people are not necessarily saying just win now and fans will show up - I believe what they are talking about is longer term winning process - win for a couple of years and then see if they show up. The specials they have for tix are pretty cheap so just lowering prices isn't the answer either. No quick fix.

No but he/she has a role in marketing, building student enthusiasm, and a host of other small things that can end up having an impact if handled correctly.

I thought the NET was suppose to replace the RPI that could be gamed - so they created another system that can be gamed? Ain't Karma a bit*ch

He is truly a good player but what we don't know is if his condition is causing his limited minutes. Maybe he is fine at 16 minutes but over 20 over time may be too much of a tax on his body. I don't know if this true or not just suggesting why it might be the way it is

Trying to compare Cignetti and Shertz is simply not worth the effort - both are apparently good coaches. Now would Cignetti have been able to do this pre NIL - who knows. Shertz is a long way from doing what Cignetti has done.

You are probably right but how did our bad SOS and Q1 wins get us to 30 - something seems incongruent here

Seems odd - did they fly in on the charter? If so who did they pick up that took their spot?

Tell them they are the NY Yankees when it comes to winning D1 National Championships.

My point was that he uses a different method for calculating what he will accept not some number or range.

Shertz uses a different metric. He says 17% of possessions is the goal. The old way of thinking about it using a preset total is not important to him. So he is the coach and they will deliver what he wants.

Don't forget but SLU is where the jump shot goes to die or at least that is what use to be said

Thank you - that is exactly what I was trying to say.
