Fan Shaming

[The Real SamC]

Comparing Marshall's marketing to a genuine private school or a de facto private school is apples to oranges. Marshall simply provides the best education a non-rich WVian can get. Nothing more, nothing less. If you are rich enough to go to a private school (and going out-of-state to that state's public schools is the same thing) then enjoy. If you ar in the the 95% that cannot, then Marshall will do more for you than any other state school. Plain and simple.

Marshall, and most of the other state colleges, have plenty of bill boards. IMHO, a waste. Any kid that chooses a college based on billboards, radio ads, or those dopey commercial they play at halftime, is not college material in the first place.

Back to football. Show up or don't.

Lol. Try being part of a fan base that demands nothing less than national titles. Archie Miller could cure cancer and put a man on Mars, but if he doesn't win Indiana a title his ass is grass.

Thats how it is once a program has huge success. As a ky fan i only ask that they been good enough to be in the discussion of who could contend for the title. Basing a program's success on national titles is so very wrong.

Billboards and commercials don't do squat as you noted. But a well produced booklet or marketing piece that is visually appealing does indeed make an impression. I guess that's why most school are growing their enrollments while ours is relatively stagnant. You gotta spend money to make money (get students on campus). What would be more important than allocating dollars to do that? Get a clue.

Aaron perkins is a super fan. Even when he got married he had something about marshall winning and losing games in his vows. He also says he cant imagine why anyone would want Doc fired. Chase is nfl bound. He is terribly upset over attendance. His dedication and love of marshall does cloud his judgement. He is unable to ever protest anything doc would do. He and family attend alot of away games. Herds biggest fan by a mile is mr perkins

You honestly don't believe that right?
