[QUOTE="huskymedic, post: 5054423, member: 549"] [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.toledoblade.com/sports/college/2024/08/02/briggs-mac-ads-tell-league-s-best-football-jobs-weeknight-games/stories/20240802130/[/URL] ->[B] One word to describe your response to the MAC adding UMass?[/B] ■ “Opportunity.” ■ “WTF? We didn’t talk through it much. The presidents had all the conversations, but, when you ask them about it and you start digging into specifics, they had no clue what questions to ask. It’s going to cost us half a million more in travel.” ■ “Is ‘head-scratcher’ one word? I don’t want to necessarily say ‘disappointing’, but ‘surprised’ might be the right word.” ■ “Curious.” ■ “Confusing … Great get academically and athletically, but I’m still trying to figure it out.” ■ “Opportunistic. Quite frankly, I didn’t mind it. I know some of my peers share an opposite opinion, but, from the standpoint of enhancing the brand of the league, adding a school like UMass helps.” ■ “[Laughs] I could not begin to sum that up in one word. Sudden. I would not say ‘strategic’, since we’re talking anonymously.” <- [/QUOTE]
