I got an email from my Cardinal CAF rep on Feb 1 that also said ticket sales were up over the last three weeks.
Season Ticket Sales Up
- Thread starter shadow force
- Start date
Absolutely there's a difference. U of L has no direct influence over ACC media, but they have primary control over "ticket sales."
You're comparing apples and oranges, you know it, and you don't give a damn.
AND you can separate the data in this instance which, of course, you wanna ignore...

Tell me exactly what that means, and I'll give you an answer.
They started installment sales early this year. Are they accounting for that difference?
Are they talking about new accounts? And are they calculating NET new accounts--new accounts minus nonrenewals? Do they even know who's not renewing at this point?
Again, you're accepting on faith data from people who are motivated to gild the lily...
But aren’t you accepting data from people who 10 years ago also had a conflict of interest? Did you peel back that onion? If sales are up from last year, good. Let’s keep doing that every year and we will eventually get back to where we were and more.
The guy raising all the questions about U of L athletic department funds and accounting had to give property and money back to a Home Owners Association to settle a lawsuit. Worth remembering before you spend too much time explaining things.
If I look at a ULAA financial report and I read football operating revenue for 2017 was S35,055M and read that for 2023 that figure is $49,534M, I don't need an interpretation for which figure is greater.
The difference is I didn’t have to rely on sound bites. We could look at annual reports, budgets, or other internal reporting systems not underpinning some sort of press release or proclamation.
Now, we get contradictory info. The same department reporting progress shows financial problems and does so consistently. That undermines their credibility when they say something wanting us to believe it. Too many times their actual numbers don’t indicate what they’re communicating.
No need to gild the lily if it’s already a thing of beauty…

Lol, another pathetic stalker with fractional information.
Come at me with what you know, and I’ll show you 10X how much you don’t know. And I’ll enjoy the hell out of it…
How much of each year was conference/media money? Throw in shoe contracts to be complete.
Of course, you don’t wanna comply with that request for obvious reasons…
Wai
wait a minute…can’t both be true? Can’t they make progress but still have problems ? It doesn’t mean they have solved the problems yet.
Revenue helps to pay expenses. Creditors don't give you a discount or drop your obligation if you pay using money that comes from a certain source. They just want to be paid.
While reporting progress, when have any of them ever said they have a long way to go? And why??
This isn't about creditors. It's about evaluating performance. Completely different situations...
Why would anyone deliberately dampen positive news that way? What purpose does that serve?
2024 FB prices are being reduced. The price adjusted revenue projection is $17.4M. The projection was based on current season ticket numbers and was made last October. The incremental revenue is $1.3M. The current actual increase in ticket sales will raise this projection/revenue.
It serves as a reality check. These people are managers, not cheer leaders.
When they KNOW how much they have to accomplish and they’re deliberately not talking about it, it undermines their credibility.
Jurich’s favorite tag line was “we try harder.” Not “we’ve arrived” or “we got this”…
ULAA Board of Directors. 2024 Baskerball tickets are also being reduced.
No, not cheerleaders, but salesmen- which is what you are always criticizing them for. Make up your mind.
I’m not interested in them selling themselves. Try not to read my mind.
They’re paid to sell a product. You don’t do the first and dog off on the second…
Salesmen routinely talk about how well their product is doing to create excitement. It primes the pump for more sales.
BTW…no need to read your mind, I just need to read your posts.
