2012 schedule Who do you want to play?

Catcat NAU plays at Weber this year. There is no way they would travel to Ogden again next season. It might be a 4 home game season next year. Who is gonna come to Ogden? No DII's!! That doesn't help us.
Also, Weber is not seeking FBS. There isn't any goal to move up.

We could always play Portland State at home next year

The guys would love to travel home....It's hard for the families to get here....It would help recruitment also! :nod: :nod: :nod: :nod: :nod: :nod: :nod: :nod:

We already play 2 FBS, thats enough. No matter how nice a trip to Hawaii might be.

Having only 4 home games is not the way to build a fanbase, we need at least 5 home games. I dont care who they bring in, as long as they are DI

Bring in either Stony Brook or Wagner, and in either 2013 or 2014 we will return the game :nod:

Of course I would love to see a home and home started with Sam Houston State :nod: too bad it dont work out. :ohno:
 
Hawaii or Tulsa. A lot of our good recruits are coming from the islands and Oklahoma. It will put our name out there, especially if we can catch them on a bad year.

Edit: I now see that you're meaning for the remaining gaps in next year's schedule. I'd go with a a midwest team like Drake or UNI.

Yeah, I put it on for the E. Wash guys. I hurt their feelings so I put one of their players on my avatar. That way they'll like me. :rofl:
 
I like how you think Wildcat, and immediately I'd be all for Stony Brook or Wagner, but remember we have to go to their place in the future, after they come to Weber, and that isn't a cheap trip. We need to play someone who is closer. Sam Houston would be a great game. They have a good team, are fairly close, and are in an area of the country closer to one of our recruiting bases (Oklahoma...still quite the drive though). If not Sam Houston, I wouldn't mind having McNeese visit Stewart again. Their last game in Ogden was one of the best games I saw while growing up. But we have to remember to keep things as inexpensive as possible. Going to the East Coast for a football game would be 100K+ for the program.

PSU and MSU would both be good additions. I'm afraid though, that MSU would want Weber to go to Bozeman next year, which would be fair, since they are playing here this year (Weber has played MSU and UM for 50 straight years, I don't want to see those rivalries end. I would be willing to have a four game schedule to keep MSU on the schedule next year; thats how much that rivalry means to me). PSU would make the most sense or UND. We play at UND in 2013 and at PSU this year (2011). Might be good for UND to visit Stewart next year. No matter, if it is UND, PSU, Stony Brook, or whomever...in the future Weber would have to travel to their place.
