Braddy please hurry and sign the d**n contract. I know the Hostile Nation is sick after this one. :flippy::flippy::flippy: I hope we beat the brakes off SU!
 
LaFleur said the 80 percent includes all revenue. JSU athletic director Bob Braddy, however, said it only includes the gate, with concession and parking revenue going to JSU

LaFleur probably cant read correctly.

The schools have a verbal agreement, but nothing has been signed. While cash is the primary factor in the decision, how the money will be shared has not been solidified.

The schools agreed in principle to a two-year deal to play in Jackson. Southern will receive 80 percent of the profits in 2009 and JSU will take home 80 percent in 2010.

Southern U. moves JSU game to Jackson for $$$
Kareem Copeland • [email protected] • June 11, 2009


Jackson State football fans have at least one reason to cheer the sagging economy: It apparently has produced another home game for the Tigers this fall.

Saying the school can make more money playing in Jackson than in Baton Rouge, Southern University officials have moved the Jaguars' Oct. 3 home game against Jackson State to 60,492-seat Mississippi Veterans Memorial Stadium.

The two SWAC East division rivals play yearly, alternating sites, but the chance to sell 40,000 or more tickets in Jackson outweighed the home-field advantage that comes with 28,000-seat A.W. Mumford Stadium in Baton Rouge.

"You can't measure (home-field advantage)," said Southern athletic director Greg LaFleur, whose school is facing stiff budget cuts and recently eliminated its women's golf and men's tennis teams. "I can't worry about the part I can't measure.

"But we can count cheeks in the seats.":retard:

Hopefully Jackson's economy will filter more tax dollars toward JSU.

I would also think that potential recruits would love to attend JSU just to play in this type of an atmosphere as well, which is another plus.:tup:

I would name the pros and cons for JSU, but I'll wait until Braddy signs the contract. LeFleur might be reading this thread.:tup:
 
So JSU might be paying SU to whip they AZZ two years in a row at home.....

Correct me if I am wrong..but has not SU had a pretty good winning record in Memorial Stadium in recent years.....( Part of the agreement probably has JSU on the visitors side of the stadium :D)

The state probably has the last say-so on how the rental agreement is set-up. (They do own the stadium)

Haley Barbour and Jindal probably have a side deal already worked out....:D

Last year was the first year since Bell that Southern beat us in Memorial.
Southern never beat HUGH's in Memorial or the SUPERDOME and before that, the best record Southern got in Memorial was about 2 in a row under Carsons watch.
Before that, Gorden punished SU in Memorial.
SU made 6 trips to Memorial at one point in the 1980's and did not score a single touchdown in 6 trips.

Stay out of this if you are here to smack, this isn't the board for this. Aren't you from PVU anyway? If so you don't matter in JSU/SU business.
 
Just a question/thought for the SU folks (eventhough I think I know the answer).

Would any of you have a problem with the game being played in Shreveport instead of Jackson?

Just a question.
 
If we only play each other every other year, how did SU make 6 trips in the 80's to Memorial Stadium?

In the 1989, SU beat JSU 21-7 for JSU's homecoming in Memorial. That's 3 touchdowns right there.

Or were you trying to be funny?

Dude.
You old enough to remember that shat so don't act so brand new.
We was dropping 30 point win's on your arses in Mumford at that time also.
If you don't remember, ask someone old enough to school you.
Ain't getting into useless back and forth crap.

I'd rather go to Jackson than Shreveport. In Shreveport you'd have an even lower attendance because both fan bases would have to travel, plus I think 'Port is further away from BR than Jackson.

Plus we'd have to pay rent.
 



You didn't say Mumford. You said Memorial. I am old enough to remember a lot and honest enough to come clean about any butt beating I witnessed or know of.

I witnessed the 1988 game in Mumford. Jackson State dropped the 30. 33 if I remember correctly. I think SU scored. 14 if remember right. Lewis Tillman ran for about 160.

I witnessed the 1989 game in Jackson. Aenaes Williams picked off a pass and returned for a touched. Ended JSU's 30 something game SWAC winning streak.

Now, I don't think SU beat JSU from 1980 to 1988. How bad those beatings SU took were, I don't know. But, I can count. There is no way JSU beat SU 6 times in Memorial stadium in the 80's. That's what you said.

And believe me, I was a Jackson State fan in the 1980s. Born and raised in Indianola, MS, so I know more than you think I do and you would not want to get in a back in forth with me at all.

Southern was so bad before Pete, we scheduled them for homecoming.:lol:
 
Might not be a bad move for SU....

- SU gets 80% of gate
- Even if JSU gets concession.....The Stadium gets a good percentage
based on the prices of food sold.
- Not sure on how the parking pans out, my guess is that the stadium
will get most of that as well.
- State of Mississippi picks up Insurance/Liability for the event.
- JSU pays stadium rental fees
- SU pays for a couple of BUS rentals and 1 night in a hotel for the team
(of course you could make it a turn around trip for the team as well
with a 6 p.m. kick-off) Cut your costs since we are in a financial
crunch.

^^^True...
 
It's topics like this why I say "we" as a people always settling...

How many conferences have this type of debates and issue when it comes to where a dayum Football game is being played?

2009 an conference has to rent a dayum stadium for a NON Classic conference game...
I guess this too is our alumni fault...

snoop.gif
 
What other conference ALWAYS laughing at each other for not having their OWN stadium for renting a freak'n stadium for a non classic "conference" game, for "upgrading" an old arse stadium... for doing nothing about having an old arse stadium...
???!?!?!?!?
We will keep getting what we settle for...

Money would still stay in Louisiana but not in Baton Rouge, where the game is SUPPOSED to be. :upset:
