OK so somebody trying. Somebody listen to Ho or try to. While Mr. Ho think idea is #1 and at least get student excited and take effort to produce the problem with the current banner is that it is already dated. Burk made original Packers roster...then get waive...now he not on NFL roster Worthy hasn't been on a roster in two years Trawick is now with the Raiders McKelvin is now with the Eagles Harris just got waived by the 49ers Steve McLendon is now with the Jets That's why Ho suggest only making gigantic banners of Trojans greats that make difference in NFL or CFL. Virgil Seay: WR (part of 'Fun Bunch') Redskins, Super Bowl champion; Frank Gifford glosses The Troy Normal School Willy Tullis: Houston Oiler legend, Howard Cossell go crazy one night with Willie; here him running TD off versus Rams, Ho think this is D*** Enberg annoucering: Kerry Jenkins: Starting LT Tampa Bay, Super Bowl champions Clifford Ivory: CB Toronto Argonauts, All-CFL, Grey Cup Champions, holds CFL record for INT returned for TDs Osi Umenyouri: All-Pro DE NY Giants, ties NFL record for sacks in one game, two Super Bowl championships Lawrence Tynes: K NY Giants, two gaming winning FG in NFC Champions games, two Super Bowl Championships, only TMTDM player to appear on David Letterman Show: tvpot.daum.net/v/RFQj7Bh5cZw$; he also hero in New York City: Demarcus Ware: Everyone know DWare Steve McLendon: Had a stellar run with the Steelers, one Super Bowl game (lost to Packers); now starting NG with the Jets.

Totally agree but Kerry Jenkins started at LG for the Bucs. On a side note I recently seen a picture of him. He got into cross fit and went from 305 to I'm guessing 185. Glad to see this. No need to carry that weight when not playing. Also didn't Kelvin Simmons play in the CFL? I might be getting him confused with Tracy Ham from Ga Southern

Ho make sense. Listen to Ho. Seriously, how hard is it to take Ho's suggestion and create gigantic banners of our NFL greats and splash them throughout the stadium ? This is Marketing 101 stuff. To Ho's point, they are timeless and will make the greatest impact. Investment. Imagine the impact when Troy is on ESPN. It's not a money issue, the days of Troy crying "we are so broke we can't afford the power bill" are not applicable any more. The PR gained vs the small fry dollar investment of these banners is out of sight.

I was told by a member of Athletics that the cost of the banners would be equivalent to someone's salary. They said that they don't want to have to choose between someone's salary and a banner. I was also told the banners would lose their "wow factor" after a few games. Just reporting what I was told.

If our budget is so tight that if $50k to $75k is not available (because someone will Lose their job) we have bigger problems. Can we at least buy some bleach to clean the bathrooms ? Oh well, let's beat Southern Miss and will let Mr. Ho continue with his attempts to shed light on the issues with the stadium.

Oh the satisfaction you would get.

Ho can lead specific fund raising program...he can fork over the excess he make by using cat instead of fish in sushi ....the fund can be called dollars for cats for banners and USC song girls

Maybe if Ho would get there before the 4th quarter he would see the nice video board being used to show DeMarcus, Leodis and a few others to go along with the new banners we have. I think we are in good shape with promo without spending $100,000 on banners.

I think we are in good shape with promo without spending $100,000 on banners. You living in Troy and being involved in program, I can see where you believe the promo is in "good shape". But if you leave the utopia that is Pike County, promo is not in good shape. Promo in Huntsville, Mobile and Birmingham are weak. Again, the banners are Marketing 101. When all the fans from all the parts of Alabama and Florida (especially the new fans) come to the stadium they leave and keep the visual aspects of the experience. Its promotion of the Troy brand. Ho knows.

Saint,
Cut the athletic department a 100K check, earmark it for football banners...and boom.
You can single handedly change the program and future of the university.
Until then, please shut your pie hole.
Good day sir.

Until then, please shut your pie hole. Good day sir. This is the idiotic small time thinking that has left Troy behind the curve. Sad really that third degree necks can't have rational thoughts. But I digress, we have to take the good with the stupid. My pie hole is all good. Night Night sweetheart.

Fellas, I think I have a solution that makes everybody happy:
Poupuri scented banners in the rest rooms and urinal cakes with the opposing team's logo in the men's room
We get our banners and Saint gets his clean smelling rest rooms. Go Troy
