I know the NO Bowl in 2017 they held a ceremony there for the players that missed graduation so it's not unusual Well it limits some of us Troy employees who want to go because it’s commencement day.

This game is a combination reward for old players and a recruiting tool. It is a poor recruiting tool. Recruits can’t go on visits to bowl games and I’m pretty sure it’s a dead period for recruiting.

Seems like telling a recruit, hey we won the conference and our players got to go to a bowl game and visit Disney and Universal seems like a pretty good thing. But I'm GenX so maybe that doesn't excite players anymore

Recruit to friend: I'm going to Troy and they just won the cure bowl. Did you see it? Friend: No. I had school.

QUESTIONS? What time is graduation on that day? I assume it will be in Trojan Arena? THINKING IF Commencement is OVER before 2 pm AND chairs are already set up ... WATCH PARTY POTENTIAL!

It’s at 10 and should be over by noon and I think that’d be a great idea. And sell concessions! Make money off it

I left 1, I repeat, one day free, because I figured it would be Nola or Montgomery or Mobile (a few weeks ago when I cemented my final PTO) and now it’s unexpectedly in Orlando which I can’t make because of work travel.
Still excited for the guys, and all of the Trojans with little ones who can actually enjoy Orlando instead of risking their lives in any of the other towns that we might have gone.

I accumulate ETO hours that continuously stay on the books until I accumulate a max of 340ish hours. I have plenty of time. The problem is, I work in a self contained unit (by that, I mean, we don't get flexed to other parts of the hospital to help staff, but we don't get help either) in a busy hospital surgical recovery room. Because of relatively small size of our unit, only one ETO is granted per date. There are very few open dates until after Jan 3, and Dec 16 isn't one of them. I'm going to have to go in and BEG my boss to let me off 2 hours early, or it's gonna be DVR time for me. I hate it, my wife wants to go to the game, but it's just not possible. Y'all have fun, I'll be screaming at my TV, you may hear me.

putting this under Bowl Buzz to kind of cover other bowls. We could be in the shape of North Texas. They kind of suck, fired their coach and play a 9-3 Boise team. Well to say the least butt handing is coming for the mean green who we destroyed a few years ago. Over on the Belt Board Marshall is a little upset at playing a 6-6 team. Then their is Memphis criticizing the crowd at the VET this weekend blah blah blah. While very few things are perfect the match-up with UTSA is a good one. Will not get lost in the boredom of bowls (since at the beginning) conference champs and ESPN has a vested interest. The publicity of the bowl shows with THIS ONE GAME getting mentioned as ONE if NOT the ONE outside of the New Years Six that has a really good story to it. The publicity alone is in our interest more than a P5 mediocre scalp. Good weather (probably) or at least warm and good setting. This is the ideal bowl game for us given all the circumstances. I am not happy that I can't be there but I will put my step-daughter ahead of Troy football (for her marriage anyway). Plus the dude (soon to be Son-In-Law) did propose at the Vet on the fifty-yard line and he is an Aublow Grad. So, have to give him kuddos for that. Great game. Great Place. GO TROY!!!!
