I’m fine with more road games, especially if we are playing a great schedule. It helps RPI, and big boys have to win on the road. Sure I love Goss and wish we could play there every game, but in life everything isn’t ideal. If it helps our team, competition, image, and recruiting, I’ll take more road games for sure. There is only 4 paths for baseball profitability that I can think of. 1) A baseball centric tv deal. Don't see that happening but if OSU offered decent quality broadcasts I would pay a subscription fee. 2) Profitable body bag road schedule. Not likely for us as we aren't currently a body bag team. 3) filling large stadiums regularly, we probably need 5000+ to hit that without significant ticket price increases. 4) Selling Merch. Three of those include a highly engaged fan base so post season success is critical. I am kind of excited to see what the baseball TV package looks like next year. Something to build on, hopefully. |

It would be cool to be able to directly support the university for the content I want without paying a middleman. |
