Until they are serious about athletics and at-least trying to compete for a conference championship every year, it will be status quo Truly, what would change if Towson Football was 6-1 instead of 4-3? Would big numbers of people really be showing up? Would media coverage be more demonstrative? Would high school students be saying they want to come to Towson? Would more alumni be donating money to athletics? It's third tier small college football in a pro football city with two FBS football teams already active in the state, and that hierarchy is never, ever changing. Ravens, Terps, Mids, and everyone else. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HAHA! Trying to oust real fans on here who won't settle for mediocre/status quo, that's great. Maybe you and the other apologists on here can get off the board and go to Rogers Forge and kiss Robs' ass in person. Especially after this impressive win!

FBS OR BUST 10 Report post Posted October 21, 2019 According to 2018 records, Towson is 9th in the CAA in football budget. The only three schools below Towson are Albany, Rhode Island and Elon. Since 2009 when Rob Ambrose took over as head coach, Towson has finished above 9th 6 times, below 9th 3 times and 9th once. 6-3-1. You can look at overall budgets like in professional sports. Towson under Rob Ambrose is like the Oakland A's in baseball. They overachieve compared to the money they have to spend. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Towson under Rob Ambrose is like the Oakland A's in baseball. They overachieve compared to the money they have to spend. You can look at it two ways, good and bad: UNH- Winner/draw well, JMU- Winner and crazed fan-base, large stadium(Highest student fees in the nation((pretty sure)), Delaware- Old time winner, lots of old alums, big stadium, Nova- wealthy alumni base, hoops $$, WM-wealthy alumni base, Richmond- Wealthy alumni base. FBS do you have the numbers? It would be interesting to see. We have a huge benefit of not having to spend as much on travel as we are centrally located and near an int'l airport. Besides the 3 Northern schools, we can easily busy everywhere. I also heard we bused to Maine this year.. any truth to that?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
