I can't believe it. More importantly, I'm glad I didn't pay the $100 per ticket that my friend wanted to go in half on for the tix this year. Maybe the reality of our coach being mediocre will mean that tix will come down to more reasonable prices comparable to similar talent level teams.
Note I am a Wolfpack Fan so please let that not be a question in this. Amato is a good coach, he can not play the games for us. What we have is a team trying to be rebuilt. We all got a little greedy from the Phillip Rivers, Holt Brothers, Jericho and Mario time frame. We now have to pay the piper and start over. You want bad coaching let's give Mike O' Cain a call back. I'm sure he would to be a head coach again.
what i still don't understand, is everyone says what a great coach Amato is, but the best he did while Rivers was here is 4th in the conference. Why is he any better than Sendek, who everyone hated. Not everyone, but the majority who made their oppinion known.
Chuck is a good coach, not a great coach. Still at most skill spots on the field we don't even have good players. (sorry guys) There is only so much anyone can do with that.
7 seasons. I don't care if Chuck remains the coach for the next ten years, but I just wish the tix $$$ would drop to a more reasonable price. I know, I know, suppy and demand.......but I'm not paying $100 to see a game of ANYTHING. TV and radio it is OR switch to being a Duke fan.
"More importantly, I'm glad I didn't pay the $100 per ticket that my friend wanted to go in half on for the tix this year. " Ticket price for Akron game was $32.00 and my seats are lower level 30 yard line. I would check out that "friend" if he said they were $100.00. And there were plenty of cheap tickets on sale outside. In fact there was one guy giving away 1 ticket. Unfortunately a lot of no shows.
Did you guys see this in today's N & O? I don't think State should have won based on this picture. http://www.newsobserver.com/100/story/485110.html
You're correct. I was referring to season tickets. Seat License + Wolfpack Club dues + Parking Pass + Season ticket = nearly $100 per ticket.
Ticket prices... I guess they have to pay for all those improvements somehow. new / current old what was wrong with the grass hill? I liked that.
I know. That's what I said. I need them to lose badly, so I can afford to go. Me, too. I fell down that think bunches of times. Reality, the ECU fans didn't intentionally tear down the fence. I slid into one, who hit two, and then four, and the whole purple and yellow snowball started and they slammed into the fence and had no where to go but onto the field. Them that climbed on the goalposts were only looking for their dates, you know, their cousins and sisters. I feel real bad about that. Whole series suspended on the account of a little Capt. Morgan's.
Here's the bottom line the way I see it. The prices and the stadium have both gone up. For a couple of years the talent level really went up. To be a big time program it takes money. The school, the Alum, and yes even the little guy fan. Notre Dame tickets still cost their fans a arm and a leg and their souls before Weiss. USC Tix will always cost money even in the bad years. It's just a fact that big time anything will mean big time prices. Echl high end ticket, maybe $25.00 NHL high end ticket non playoff 250.-300. You guys want Mike O'cain back?? I sure as he** don't. I would however like Erik Kramer or Jamie Barrnett over Stone.
