Coaches Show Upgrade

[votb]

Greetings Bengal Fans...
In trying to make the weekly ISU Coaches Radio Show more fan friendly, we're working on making hot dogs and sodas available at the show, which is held on Wednesday nights at Phil Meador Courtesy Ford in Pocatello. The ISU FAT Club is helping out, and we haven't decided if there'll be a charge or not, but do you all think it would be fair to charge a buck or so for each? We'd love to have more fans come out and participate. The show begins at 6:00 p.m.

If you want to make it more fan friendly, why not hold it in a more fan friendly place? Take nothing away from the Meadors, who have shown themselves to be incredibly generous and valuable members of the community. At the end of the day, it's a car lot. Who wants to spend an hour with their family at a car lot?

I attended a couple of times when it was at Chili's. Seems like if you want it more fan friendly, you'd hold the show at a place where families normally congregate. I'd think restaurants like Chili's, Wingers, BWW, MacKenzie, future Red Robin and so on would love the bump in business on a Wednesday night.

Hosting the Coaches Show is a sponsor opportunity. It's great to say all of those other places would love to have a bump in business, but if I'm not mistaken, BWW hosted it for awhile then decided not to do it anymore. Granted, we still weren't winning any football games then, but I guess the faithful get rewarded. Courtesy Ford got it after that. I don't have any input on where the show is from, so I'm doing what I can to make it as fan friendly as possible, no matter where it's at.

Speaking of the faithful getting rewarded, not only will we have dogs and sodas tonight, but I'll have a couple of shirts from the Orange & Black store to give away, and a couple of tickets to Saturday's game against Portland State.

GO BENGALS!

It's too late this year, votb, but has there been any thought about broadcasting the coaches show from the state fair? It would offer great visibility of ISU and the football program to the upper and mid-valley folks, but all in one place. It would be a great place to hand out schedules, posters, prizes and all that. Just a thought, and it would only be once a year.
