Keli Zinn coaching thoughts.

We are once again the National laughing stock of College Football. The longer Schiano stays this reputation will be further amplified throughout the football world.

The facilities at UCLA bring in tons of revenue, luxury suites & boxes, something that RU desperately needs, thus off setting any expenditures to maintain a 91,000 seat stadium

Wrong.
UCLA is attempting to break their lease at the Rose Bowl which unfortunately runs through 2043 for them.

It's because they don't even have their own stadium. And their on campus practice facilities are horrible across the board. Pauley Pavilion is a dump too. It's just historic. Their finances are such a mess the last AD got fired because of it.

All this and they're 8-0. Coaching matters. Of course, the narrative from our resident Schiano supporter is going to be that their fans ponied up. Not that they hired a much better coach.

Hey, even a broken clock is right twice a day. Their fans DO pony up, though not for a field house.

Uh, Cali, when was the last time you were actually in Pauley? It has been totally overhauled and is not a dump.

UCLA's NIL is reportedly slightly more than ours. We've invested far more in operations and facilities.

By DumbAl standards they should suck and we should be way ahead of them. Except we have Schiano and they have Chesney. Great coaching mitigates and money advantage. The worst part? We are paying Schiano as much as they are paying Chesney.

What an L for us.

I am there at least 5 times a year sitting on the floor as my golfing buddy has season tickets. I couldn't have a better set up. Basically go to any game I want. USC's facility blows it away in every way possible. Pauley is way outdated renovation or not.

Notice anything peculiar about their practice field lol?

Do you always talk in the 3rd person?

“Shelby…”

Life has been much better after hitting the ignore button on 3rd person Shelby.
